All values are actuals from tracked container records. Paths flagged low n have fewer than 20 records and should be read as directional.
The median transit time is 42.0 days. This is based on 124 containers tracked end-to-end on this exact direct path.
Most containers arrive within 42.0–42.0 days (P25–P75 of 193 tracked records on this lane). Plan with this range, not a single number.

Direct service — meaning no transshipment between origin and destination — is the dominant routing on this corridor. It is supported by 193 leg-level observations on the direct segment. Of those, 124 were containers literally booked direct from Dar Es Salaam to Mundra and tracked end-to-end on this exact path. MSC operates the dominant tracked direct service. On the direct segment, the median sail time is 42.0 days, and the P25–P75 range runs from 42.0 to 42.0 days.
For planning purposes, treat the 42.0 to 42.0 day P25–P75 range as the realistic arrival window for direct service. About half of all observed direct shipments fell within that 0.0-day spread. When committing door-to-door dates to consignees, account for an additional 8.0 days of gate-in dwell at Dar Es Salaam and 2.0 days of gate-out dwell at Mundra on top of the chosen sail time.
