Ports and airports in southern China will restart operations Thursday after super typhoon Ragasa, the world\u2019s strongest storm so far this year, made landfall in Guangdong province Wednesday, causing widespread flooding and property damage.<\/p>\n

But supply chains in a region stretching between South China, Taiwan and the Philippines face extensive disruption even after terminals reopen and flights resume. The turmoil comes ahead of China\u2019s National Day holiday that starts Oct. 1.<\/p>\n

Hapag-Lloyd, in an advisory Wednesday, warned of lengthy berthing delays at key ports in South China. Cathay Pacific Airways, Hong Kong\u2019s dominant air cargo airline, said it would take some time for flights to return to normal.<\/p>\n

At Shenzhen\u2019s Yantian terminal, which handles about a quarter of China\u2019s exports to the US, Hapag-Lloyd forecast berthing delays of five to seven days after the facility reopens. The carrier said it expected a four- to five-day delay at Shekou, three to four days at Nansha, Guangzhou\u2019s main export port; about three days in Hong Kong and delays of two days in both Kaohsiung and Keelung in Taiwan.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a result, we anticipate significant disruptions to our operations,\u201d Hapag-Lloyd said in its advisory.<\/p>\n

All ports in southern China, including Shenzhen, Hong Kong and Nansha, plus Kaohsiung,\u00a0have been closed since early Monday.<\/a><\/p>\n

CMA CGM said the Philippine Coast Guard had banned the movement of all vessels ahead of the cyclone\u2019s arrival on Sept. 22, although terminals at Manila and Subic Bay were kept partially open. The carrier indicated Tuesday vessels were being delayed up to two days.<\/p>\n

OOCL said in an advisory that the Hong Kong government downgraded its typhoon warning Wednesday evening, but cargo operations at terminals and depots in Hong Kong, Shenzhen, Guangzhou and nearby cities including Dongguan and Nansha remained suspended.<\/p>\n

Flights suspended in Hong Kong<\/strong><\/p>\n

At Hong Kong International Airport, the world\u2019s busiest cargo airport, all flights were suspended Wednesday and are not scheduled to resume until Thursday morning.<\/p>\n

The Airport Authority of Hong Kong said 100 cargo flights will be canceled during this period, including services operated by integrators FedEx, UPS and DHL. A further 15 flights operated by carriers including Atlas Air, Kalitta Air and MSC Air Cargo will be delayed until Friday and Saturday.<\/p>\n

In an advisory Wednesday, Cathay Pacific said flights would resume Thursday, but noted that restoring its normal schedule will be a \u201cchallenging and gradual process that will take time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Shenzhen Baoan International Airport, used by carriers including UPS, FedEx and Atlas Air, suspended all flights late Tuesday and won\u2019t restart operations until Thursday, according to flight schedules.<\/p>\n
