hi,
there is no plural form for the word "information". thus the abbreveation "infos" is wrong and should read "info".
usage of upper/lowercase isn't consistent. e.g., "business outlook information" vs "Action", "Ship performance" vs "Ship Positions", "Change Ship Destination and SPEED" etc. |

By the same token it should be: "Tug Fee" or "Tug Fees", not "tugs cost"
Perhaps a kind native English speaker could go over all that.
and agreed, it should be either American or British but consistent.
