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 19.0 days. This is based on 183 containers tracked end-to-end on this exact direct path.
Most containers arrive within 18.4–19.4 days (P25–P75 of 519 tracked records on this lane). Plan with this range, not a single number.
The shipping distance from Izmit to Algeciras is approximately 1,833 nautical miles (3,395 km).
Maersk line operates direct service on this lane in our tracked dataset.
No transshipment paths are present in the tracked dataset for this lane — containers observed move directly from Izmit to Algeciras.
Approximately 30.0 days door-to-door. The median gate-in dwell at Izmit is 7.49 days. Vessel sail time from Izmit to Algeciras is 19.0 days. The median gate-out dwell at Algeciras is 3.53 days.
Container shipping from Izmit to Algeciras spans approximately 1,833 nautical miles, equivalent to 3,395 kilometres of sea route. Our tracked dataset for this lane includes 519 records across qualifying paths. Of those, 183 containers were tracked end-to-end on the direct path (literally booked from Izmit to Algeciras with no transshipment). The median sail time on direct service is 19.0 days. Most shipments arrive within 18.4 to 19.4 days, the P25–P75 range covering the middle half of observed transits.
The typical door-to-door figure is 30.0 days. Median gate-in dwell at Izmit is 7.49 days, representing the time a container spends at the origin terminal between arrival at the gate and loading onto the vessel. Vessel sail time from Izmit to Algeciras is 19.0 days. Median gate-out dwell at Algeciras is 3.53 days, covering discharge and the time before pickup at the destination terminal.
Direct service — meaning no transshipment between origin and destination — is the dominant routing on this corridor. It is supported by 519 leg-level observations on the direct segment. Of those, 183 were containers literally booked direct from Izmit to Algeciras and tracked end-to-end on this exact path. Maersk operates the dominant tracked direct service. On the direct segment, the median sail time is 19.0 days, and the P25–P75 range runs from 18.4 to 19.4 days.
For planning purposes, treat the 18.4 to 19.4 day P25–P75 range as the realistic arrival window for direct service. About half of all observed direct shipments fell within that 1.0-day spread. When committing door-to-door dates to consignees, account for an additional 7.49 days of gate-in dwell at Izmit and 3.53 days of gate-out dwell at Algeciras on top of the chosen sail time.
