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 25.0 days. This is based on 304 containers tracked end-to-end on this exact direct path.
Most containers arrive within 23.8–25.7 days (P25–P75 of 1,238 tracked records on this lane). Plan with this range, not a single number.
The shipping distance from Izmit to Port Said is approximately 825 nautical miles (1,528 km).

Most shipments arrive within 23.8 to 25.7 days, the P25–P75 range covering the middle half of observed transits.
The typical door-to-door figure is 40.8 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 Port Said is 25.0 days. Median gate-out dwell at Port Said is 8.33 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 1,238 leg-level observations on the direct segment. Of those, 304 were containers literally booked direct from Izmit to Port Said 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 25.0 days, and the P25–P75 range runs from 23.8 to 25.7 days.
For planning purposes, treat the 23.8 to 25.7 day P25–P75 range as the realistic arrival window for direct service. About half of all observed direct shipments fell within that 1.9-day spread. When committing door-to-door dates to consignees, account for an additional 7.49 days of gate-in dwell at Izmit and 8.33 days of gate-out dwell at Port Said on top of the chosen sail time.
