Panama Canal Authority increases daily Panamax lock transits to 27, adding slots due to Gatun Lake water levels and demand.

Panama Canal Authority increases daily transits in Panamax locks to 27, adding 3 slots in response to improved water levels in Gatun Lake and increased demand. Starting March 18, two more Panamax slots will be available for auction, and from March 25, an additional slot will be introduced. This move aims to provide vessels with a higher chance of securing a reservation for transit through the Canal.
