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 21.3 days. This is based on 113 containers tracked end-to-end on this exact direct path.
Most containers arrive within 19.3–23.3 days (P25–P75 of 117 tracked records on this lane). Plan with this range, not a single number.
The shipping distance from Jakarta to Manila is approximately 1,573 nautical miles (2,912 km).
MSC 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 Jakarta to Manila.
Approximately 30.6 days door-to-door. The median gate-in dwell at Jakarta is 4.85 days. Vessel sail time from Jakarta to Manila is 21.3 days. The median gate-out dwell at Manila is 4.45 days.
Container shipping from Jakarta to Manila spans approximately 1,573 nautical miles, equivalent to 2,912 kilometres of sea route. Our tracked dataset for this lane includes 117 records across qualifying paths. Of those, 113 containers were tracked end-to-end on the direct path (literally booked from Jakarta to Manila with no transshipment). The median sail time on direct service is 21.3 days. Most shipments arrive within 19.3 to 23.3 days, the P25–P75 range covering the middle half of observed transits.
The typical door-to-door figure is 30.6 days. Median gate-in dwell at Jakarta is 4.85 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 Jakarta to Manila is 21.3 days. Median gate-out dwell at Manila is 4.45 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 117 leg-level observations on the direct segment. Of those, 113 were containers literally booked direct from Jakarta to Manila 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 21.3 days, and the P25–P75 range runs from 19.3 to 23.3 days.
For planning purposes, treat the 19.3 to 23.3 day P25–P75 range as the realistic arrival window for direct service. About half of all observed direct shipments fell within that 4.0-day spread. When committing door-to-door dates to consignees, account for an additional 4.85 days of gate-in dwell at Jakarta and 4.45 days of gate-out dwell at Manila on top of the chosen sail time.
