    11. Pricing Disclaimers  
      Our submitted quotes are based on the uninterrupted and largely unchanged freight schedules. However, due to the ongoing COVID-19 epidemic and more recently, the military escalation of the Russo-Ukrainian conflict, we continue to see delays, cancellations and a severe capacity shortage in the freight markets globally. The situation remains very volatile and beyond our control. As a result, our submitted quotes only take into account the situation of the market at the time of quoting and does not take into account any fluctuations in the market thereafter. Our submitted rates should therefore only be used as an indication of the actual rates. We reserve the right to adjust our rates and accessorial fees (including without limitation add-ons and surcharges) unilaterally at a later stage in the event of market fluctuations. Further, during this period, we make no commitment to transit times, and liquidated damages or penalties relating to shipment delays will not be accepted. In addition, we reserve the right to reject shipments in the event of cancellations in freight including but not limited to flight cancellations and blank sailings).

    III. DELIVERY OF CONSIGNMENTS 

    1. SCHENKER spol. s r.o. shall ensure the delivery of the consignment to the place of destination at the normal delivery time, appropriate to the distance of the shipping and customary for the given type of shipping, or within the deadline agreed in writing with the ordering party of the shipping.

    2. If the delivery time is to fall on a holiday or a day of rest, it will fall at the same time on the next business day, unless otherwise agreed in the contract.  
    3. The provision of the two preceding paragraphs shall not apply to cases when the consignment is undeliverable on the first attempt. An undeliverable consignment is then understood as a consignment which cannot be delivered even when every effort necessary is made to deliver the consignment, due to the fact that: 

      a)  the consignee was not at the designated place at the time of delivery of the consignment; 
      b)  the consignee refused to acknowledge receipt of the consignment in writing; 
      c) the consignee is not found at the designated delivery point, or has moved;

The entitlement of SCHENKER spol. s r.o. for the payment of its  remuneration and any damages (costs) incurred is not affected by this. 
    5. Failure to accept the consignment on the part of the consignee shall not constitute the right of the ordering party of the  shipping for reimbursement of the costs subsequently incurred as a result of the consignment not being accepted.  SCHENKER spol. s r.o. is not liable for the costs incurred in this way unless the ordering party of the shipping proves  the legitimacy of his/her claim because of a breach of obligations on the part of SCHENKER spol. s r.o.

    1.

      c) by an order of the ordering party of the shipping, which was not caused by negligence of SCHENKER spol. s r.o.,  an intrinsic defect of the consignment or circumstances that SCHENKER spol. s r.o. cannot avert and the removal  of consequences of which is not in its power. 

    4. SCHENKER spol. s r.o. is exempted from liability if loss or damage arises from a particular hazard related to one or more of the following facts:

    7. The ordering party of the shipping explicitly agrees that SCHENKER spol. s r.o. shall never be liable for damages arising from non-compliance with anticipated delivery times for the maritime transport of goods. The negotiation of a fixed delivery time is explicitly excluded in maritime transport, and if it is still stated in the shipping contract, it is regarded as an invalid arrangement. 

    8. The ordering party of the shipping is not entitled to offset compensation for damage incurred during transportation or as  a result of transport against the claim of SCHENKER spol. s r.o. to pay for the services provided or against the claim of  SCHENKER to cover any damages (extra costs – for example storage fee, demurrage, restraint, etc.).
