Actual transit (from carrier discharge events)

45days median

Middle half 41–54 days · 90% within 62 days · n = 119 shipments with a recorded discharge

Loaded on board at Qingdao → container discharged at Santos, from the carrier's container events: actual dates, not estimates, for only the shipments whose discharge is on record — most Bills of Lading are read after the container has been returned empty.

Schedule slip vs plan

+3days median · after the planned arrival

Middle half +1 to +4 days · n = 37 shipments with both a planned arrival and a recorded discharge on this route, across 12 sailings

Per shipment, the day a container was discharged at the port of discharge minus the carrier's first planned arrival there — whole days, exact to within a day either way; negative means ahead of plan. Each shipment is measured against its own plan, so it is a plain count, not weighted by volume. A sailing is one vessel voyage: every container on a late vessel is late together, so the slip is shown only when its shipments came on at least 5 sailings.

On the 37 shipments with both a planned arrival and a recorded discharge on this route, across 12 sailings, containers were discharged a median 3 days after the carrier's planned arrival at the port of discharge: the planned date is the carrier's plan as bexy read each Bill of Lading, and those schedules have slipped.

Qingdao to Santos ocean freight

Measured from the carrier's container events instead of its estimates, the actual transit from Qingdao to Santos — loaded on board to a container discharged at the port of discharge, with no inland leg — has a median of 45 days (middle half 41–54 days, 90% within 62 days) across 119 shipments with a recorded discharge at the port of discharge. On the 37 shipments with both a planned arrival and a recorded discharge on this route, across 12 sailings, containers were discharged a median 3 days after the carrier's planned arrival at the port of discharge: the planned date is the carrier's plan as bexy read each Bill of Lading, and those schedules have slipped.

In the carrier's planned routing at the time bexy read each Bill of Lading, 2% of the 238 Qingdao-to-Santos shipments with a planned routing to the port of discharge were planned via at least one transshipment port, most often Ningbo and Hong Kong; the rest were planned direct from the port of loading to the port of discharge. A transshipment port here is a planned stop between those two ports that is not the place of receipt or delivery, and routings can change after booking.

By place of receipt and delivery, this cargo travels mostly on the China to Brazil trade lane.
