Additionally, secure vessel space well in advance during the Diwali export peak (late September–mid November) to avoid tight bookings. During the northeast monsoon (November-March), consider slower transit times and prioritize sheltered routings to mitigate delays. Lastly, monitor weather conditions during the Indian Ocean cyclone season (April-June and October-December) to adjust plans as necessary.
