About the Algeciras to Tanjung Priok shipping route
The shipping route from Algeciras, Spain to Tanjung Priok, Indonesia covers 7,274 nautical miles port to port, via Suez Canal. On a globe the two ports sit 12,407 km apart, so the ship sails 1.09 times the straight line distance. On the way the vessel passes Strait of Gibraltar, Bab-el-Mandeb, Suez Canal and Sunda Strait, so canal transit fees and waiting time at the canal are part of every voyage.
Shipping time depends on speed. At 14 knots, a common container ship service speed, the passage takes 21.7 days at sea. Slow steaming at 12 knots stretches it to 25.3 days, while 18 knots brings it down to 16.8. Container transit time on a liner service is longer than the steaming time: ships call at other ports on the rotation, and cargo may transship at a hub. Add terminal time at Algeciras and Tanjung Priok to plan the full ocean transit time.
The shortest route goes through the Red Sea. Since attacks on shipping began there in late 2023, many carriers send ships via Cape of Good Hope instead. That route is 10,335 nautical miles, 3,061 more, and adds about 9.1 days at 14 knots. Longer voyages burn more fuel and tie up more ships, which is why freight rates on Red Sea lanes jumped when the diversions started.
1,925 nm of the route, 26% of it, lies inside Mediterranean Sea ECA. In an emission control area ships must burn fuel with no more than 0.1% sulphur or clean the exhaust with scrubbers. That fuel costs more, and carriers add it to the ocean freight bill as a low sulphur or ECA surcharge.
Container freight rates on Algeciras to Tanjung Priok move with fuel prices, ship capacity and the season. Compare several carriers before booking: the cheapest sailing is often the slowest one. At Tanjung Priok (IDTPP) carriers give about 4.5 free days before demurrage and detention charges start, so plan the truck or rail pickup before the box lands.
Of the 65 port to port routes from Algeciras in this directory, Tanjung Priok is the 42nd shortest. Closer destinations include Singapore (6,997 nm), Port Klang (6,813 nm) and Manzanillo (6,080 nm).
