Abstract

The current pandemic has dealt a serious blow to the global market of the transport and logistics system. With the closure of borders, a sharp decline in demand for goods, the growth of the dollar, the volume of cargo traffic at the local and global levels has significantly decreased. The usual logistics schemes in the conditions of the pandemic ceased to operate, and many logistics companies were on the verge of economic collapse. Maritime transport was one of the first to suffer from the pandemic. Working under difficult conditions and restrictions, he continued to carry out his functions for the transportation of goods and passengers. However, the scale of the pandemic in the maritime transport of the Far Eastern region has not yet been determined, and its consequences have not been fully studied. In this regard, the regularities of the development of the port industry and shipping in the Far Eastern region during the pre-pandemic and pandemic periods are investigated. The negative consequences of the impact of the pandemic on maritime transport have been studied, the reasons for the "lengthening" of project deadlines, reducing the number of ship trips to ports, and the problems of reducing passenger traffic, including cruise shipping, have been studied. It is concluded that the pandemic has had an indirect rather than a direct impact on the maritime transport of the Far Eastern region.
