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 23.8 days. This is based on 701 containers tracked end-to-end on this exact direct path.
Most containers arrive within 23.4–24.3 days (P25–P75 of 2,301 tracked records on this lane). Plan with this range, not a single number.
Maersk line operates direct service on this lane in our tracked dataset.
Yes. Tracked transshipment options include: Port Said (40.2d total, 41 records).
Approximately 41.2 days door-to-door. The median gate-in dwell at Izmit is 7.49 days. Vessel sail time from Izmit to Tanger Med is 23.8 days. The median gate-out dwell at Tanger Med is 9.88 days.
Container shipping from Izmit to Tanger Med. Our tracked dataset for this lane includes 2,301 records across qualifying paths. Of those, 701 containers were tracked end-to-end on the direct path (literally booked from Izmit to Tanger Med with no transshipment). The median sail time on direct service is 23.8 days. Most shipments arrive within 23.4 to 24.3 days, the P25–P75 range covering the middle half of observed transits.
The typical door-to-door figure is 41.2 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 Tanger Med is 23.8 days. Median gate-out dwell at Tanger Med is 9.88 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 2,260 leg-level observations on the direct segment. Of those, 701 were containers literally booked direct from Izmit to Tanger Med 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 23.8 days, and the P25–P75 range runs from 23.4 to 24.3 days.
One transshipment alternative is present in the dataset. The Port Said-routed path takes a median of 40.2 days based on 41 records, with a P25–P75 range of 38.0 to 43.3 days. Median dwell at the hub terminal on this path is 6.3 days.
For planning purposes, treat the 23.4 to 24.3 day P25–P75 range as the realistic arrival window for direct service. About half of all observed direct shipments fell within that 0.9-day spread. When committing door-to-door dates to consignees, account for an additional 7.49 days of gate-in dwell at Izmit and 9.88 days of gate-out dwell at Tanger Med on top of the chosen sail time.
