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 23.0 days. This is based on 278 containers tracked end-to-end on this exact direct path.
Most containers arrive within 22.0–24.0 days (P25–P75 of 470 tracked records on this lane). Plan with this range, not a single number.
The shipping distance from San Pedro to Lome is approximately 621 nautical miles (1,150 km).
MSC line operates direct service on this lane in our tracked dataset.

Approximately 38.0 days door-to-door. The median gate-in dwell at San Pedro is 4.0 days. Vessel sail time from San Pedro to Lome is 23.0 days. The median gate-out dwell at Lome is 11.0 days.
Container shipping from San Pedro to Lome spans approximately 621 nautical miles, equivalent to 1,150 kilometres of sea route. Our tracked dataset for this lane includes 470 records across qualifying paths. Of those, 278 containers were tracked end-to-end on the direct path (literally booked from San Pedro to Lome with no transshipment). The median sail time on direct service is 23.0 days. Most shipments arrive within 22.0 to 24.0 days, the P25–P75 range covering the middle half of observed transits.
The typical door-to-door figure is 38.0 days. Median gate-in dwell at San Pedro is 4.0 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 San Pedro to Lome is 23.0 days. Median gate-out dwell at Lome is 11.0 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 470 leg-level observations on the direct segment. Of those, 278 were containers literally booked direct from San Pedro to Lome 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 23.0 days, and the P25–P75 range runs from 22.0 to 24.0 days.
For planning purposes, treat the 22.0 to 24.0 day P25–P75 range as the realistic arrival window for direct service. About half of all observed direct shipments fell within that 2.0-day spread. When committing door-to-door dates to consignees, account for an additional 4.0 days of gate-in dwell at San Pedro and 11.0 days of gate-out dwell at Lome on top of the chosen sail time.
