Due to recent events impacting the Middle East, some airlines are cancelling, delaying and/or halting operations at this time. Marken remains fully operational in the surrounding cities and throughout the region, with daily collections and deliveries. Our team is proactively monitoring all lanes and shipments, leveraging our UPS Air network, and are diverting exports to other airports, to avoid impacts wherever possible. 

While we continue to assess the situation, we understand and anticipate operational delays, causing disruption within the supply chain. We are working with our business partners and clients to provide alternative arrangements and our Customer Service team is communicating necessary updates directly to our clients, on a case-by-case basis. 

OPERATIONAL UPDATES:

• ISRAEL – Currently, no impact or change in operations or timelines at this time. Some airlines have suspended flights. EL AL Israel Airlines remains operational in and out of Israel with direct flights into EU and US destinations. 
• LEBANON – Currently, no impact or change in operations at this time. Some airlines have suspended flights. However, Middle East Airlines and Turkish Airlines remains operational in and out of Lebanon with direct flights into EU destinations. 

Marken continues to source alternate routes, as needed, including leveraging UPS Air, to reduce impacts to shipments in/out of region. Marken’s regional partners are ready for road solutions and we have regional hubs in place, within our network, to redispatch to destinations, where needed.

As your single-source solutions partner, we’re here for you. For information on your particular shipment, please contact your local Marken Customer Service Representatives. We remain available for any assistance our clients require. 

*This situation is fluid and we are updating as we can
