RATES ADJUSTMENT NOTICE

Notice to Our Valued Clients,

The price of marine fuel has been steadily increasing since January, recently culminating in an abrupt spike. This volatility is largely due to escalating tensions in the Middle East, which have caused global supply constraints, restricted fuel availability, and increased costs for maritime operations.
To sustain our operations and continue serving the riding public and our cargo clients, we will be implementing a 20% fuel surcharge adjustment.

Please take note of the following implementation schedule:
Passenger Fare Adjustment: Effective today, March 9, 2026.
Cargo Rate Adjustment: Effective Wednesday, March 11, 2026.

Please be advised that rates remain fluid due to the current market volatility.
We remain deeply committed to serving you during these challenging times and appreciate your understanding of the limited prior notice given these rapidly changing conditions. For specific concerns regarding your shipments, please coordinate with your sales representative or our customer service team.
