Facts citing this source

  • The Panama Canal Authority reported about 423 million tons transited in fiscal year 2024, down from prior years as drought-driven draft and slot restrictions cut traffic.

    ~423 million tons (FY2024, ACP)Reported by Panama Canal Authority (Autoridad del Canal de Panamá)As of September 30, 2025High
  • A severe 2023–2024 drought forced the canal to cut daily transit slots and draft, reducing FY2024 deep-draft transits about 29% versus FY2023 — a freshwater-availability constraint rather than a security disruption.
