The three mistakes this lane punishes hardest
- Space on Batam lanes tightens in the rainy season and before long holidays; do not schedule against the cut-off, leave one notch.

- If Batam mixes full containers with a broken-down portion, issue the loose part separately or the liability lines blur.
