Hanjin is / was 7th largest Steamship Co. ( SSCO ) Worldwide; largest shipping line HQ'ed in Korea, though Hyundai is close behind in size. A Hanjin ship is due at Port of Seattle Terminal 46 Saturday AM. Unknown as of now if this ship will be unloaded, as Port is demanding C.O.D. before they will even allow it to dock. ( T-46 would not accept any Hanjin cans, loaded or empty, Thursday or today. My employer stacked up mty HJCU cans in our yard today to return Port chassis that were drawing Per Diem.) Hanjin @ Olympic Container Terminal in Port of Tacoma sez they will unload this same ship when it calls there next week. This is likely due to pressure from Costco, Amazon & REI for import product with Xmas rush buildup. ( I do not know if Starfleet Command is / was a Hanjin customer. )
Speculation is other SSCo's will haul Hanjin loads on Hanjin rates & bills of lading out of U.S. Ports to try & gain export business from current Hanjin customers. This tactic has been common in the U.S. Trucking Industry; when Consolidated Freightways pulled the pin in 2002 ( on Labor Day Weekend ), Northwest Regional carriers Oak Harbor & Peninsula ( both also Teamster ) finished deliveries on local CF shipments, while ABF handled the nationwide stuff.
