Poste Italiane has advised that BCUBE (Post Italiane’s airmail unit (AMU) service provider) is currently thoroughly testing its IT systems and all the associated processes before opening the systems to external networks. The aim is to ensure the new IT environment is up to speed and able to meet all necessary requirements. At present, processes are still slowed down owing to the implementation of additional steps in the IT security routine. Hopefully, they will speed up over the next few days. 

UK – Holyhead Port Closure 17.12.2024

Update 17.12.2024 – 

We have today received confirmation that Holyhead Port will remain closed until 15th January 2025, which will unfortunately result in continued delays. 

We will continue to work with suppliers and keep you informed of any developments. 

16.12.2024

Unfortunately, we regret to inform you that Holyhead Port is closed due to Storm Darragh causing damage to the port itself. Holyhead Port remains closed as urgent remedial work is required. The latest communications from the port suggest that it will remain non-operational until further notice, possibly even January 2025.

We are working with our suppliers to ensure minimum delays but unfortunately, whilst traffic is directed to other ports, the additional demand has led to congestion and some unavoidable delays.

We will keep you informed of future developments.
