Alert on destination changes

A Destination Change alert in Maritime Intelligence emails you when a vessel that was heading to a port you choose reports a different destination. Use it to catch diversions early, such as a vessel bound for Rotterdam that switches ports, so you can update berth, cargo, or agency plans while there is still time.
