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 11.6 days. This is based on 188 containers tracked end-to-end on this exact direct path.
Most containers arrive within 11.3–12.7 days (P25–P75 of 268 tracked records on this lane). Plan with this range, not a single number.
The shipping distance from Rijeka to Piraeus is approximately 680 nautical miles (1,259 km).
COSCO 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 Rijeka to Piraeus.
Approximately 19.1 days door-to-door. The median gate-in dwell at Rijeka is 4.49 days. Vessel sail time from Rijeka to Piraeus is 11.6 days. The median gate-out dwell at Piraeus is 3.0 days.
Container shipping from Rijeka to Piraeus spans approximately 680 nautical miles, equivalent to 1,259 kilometres of sea route. Our tracked dataset for this lane includes 268 records across qualifying paths. Of those, 188 containers were tracked end-to-end on the direct path (literally booked from Rijeka to Piraeus with no transshipment). The median sail time on direct service is 11.6 days. Most shipments arrive within 11.3 to 12.7 days, the P25–P75 range covering the middle half of observed transits.
The typical door-to-door figure is 19.1 days. Median gate-in dwell at Rijeka is 4.49 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 Rijeka to Piraeus is 11.6 days. Median gate-out dwell at Piraeus is 3.0 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 268 leg-level observations on the direct segment. Of those, 188 were containers literally booked direct from Rijeka to Piraeus and tracked end-to-end on this exact path. COSCO operates the dominant tracked direct service. On the direct segment, the median sail time is 11.6 days, and the P25–P75 range runs from 11.3 to 12.7 days.
For planning purposes, treat the 11.3 to 12.7 day P25–P75 range as the realistic arrival window for direct service. About half of all observed direct shipments fell within that 1.4-day spread. When committing door-to-door dates to consignees, account for an additional 4.49 days of gate-in dwell at Rijeka and 3.0 days of gate-out dwell at Piraeus on top of the chosen sail time.
