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 64.7 days. This is based on 232 containers tracked end-to-end on this exact direct path.
Most containers arrive within 63.9–65.8 days (P25–P75 of 311 tracked records on this lane). Plan with this range, not a single number.
The shipping distance from Ningbo to Rijeka is approximately 8,522 nautical miles (15,783 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 Ningbo to Rijeka.
Approximately 74.2 days door-to-door. The median gate-in dwell at Ningbo is 4.7 days. Vessel sail time from Ningbo to Rijeka is 64.7 days. The median gate-out dwell at Rijeka is 4.83 days.
Container shipping from Ningbo to Rijeka spans approximately 8,522 nautical miles, equivalent to 15,783 kilometres of sea route. Our tracked dataset for this lane includes 311 records across qualifying paths. Of those, 232 containers were tracked end-to-end on the direct path (literally booked from Ningbo to Rijeka with no transshipment). The median sail time on direct service is 64.7 days. Most shipments arrive within 63.9 to 65.8 days, the P25–P75 range covering the middle half of observed transits.
The typical door-to-door figure is 74.2 days. Median gate-in dwell at Ningbo is 4.7 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 Ningbo to Rijeka is 64.7 days. Median gate-out dwell at Rijeka is 4.83 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 311 leg-level observations on the direct segment. Of those, 232 were containers literally booked direct from Ningbo to Rijeka and tracked end-to-end on this exact path. Maersk operates the dominant tracked direct service. Containers carried by COSCO and MSC also traversed this corridor without an intermediate transshipment, generally as sub-segments of longer journeys. On the direct segment, the median sail time is 64.7 days, and the P25–P75 range runs from 63.9 to 65.8 days.
For planning purposes, treat the 63.9 to 65.8 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 4.7 days of gate-in dwell at Ningbo and 4.83 days of gate-out dwell at Rijeka on top of the chosen sail time.
