< Back to Glossary Index

Cargo may sometimes have to be discharged at a port other than the original port of destination, for instance, if a vessel runs the risk of being frozen in by ice and the master considers it prudent to deliver the cargo at the nearest safe port. If the extra distance causes the owner to incur additional risk or expense, he can require being compensated by extra freight, which is called “distance freight”.
