Roble Shipping Inc. today announced a necessary adjustment to its current fuel surcharge rates, effective immediately. This move follows the guidelines set forth by the Maritime Industry Authority in MARINA Advisory No. 2026-15, issued on March 30, 2026.
To maintain the high standard of service, safety, and reliability that our passengers and cargo partners expect, Roble Shipping Inc. will implement an additional 10% fuel surcharge. This adjustment will be applied on top of the existing temporary fuel surcharge currently in effect across all routes.
The maritime industry continues to face significant pressure from the sustained rise in global fuel prices. As a company committed to bridging the islands of the Philippines, these temporary measures are essential to ensure:
-
Operational Continuity: Sustaining our regular sailing schedules without disruption.
-
Safety Standards: Maintaining rigorous vessel maintenance and safety protocols.
-
Service Reliability: Ensuring that both passengers and vital goods reach their destinations on time. “While we understand the impact of price adjustments on our valued clients, this step is vital for us to navigate the current global energy crisis,” said a spokesperson for Roble Shipping Inc. “Our primary focus remains the safety of our passengers and the integrity of the supply chain we support.”
Roble Shipping Inc. encourages all clients to plan their travel and shipments accordingly. Our ticketing offices and freight handling centers are ready to assist with any questions regarding the new rate structure.
Roble Shipping thanked the community for their continued trust and understanding during these challenging economic times. For the latest advisories, schedule changes, and company news, please follow the company’s official social media channels or visit our website.
