About the Callao to Auckland shipping route

The straight line between the ports is 10,761 km; coastlines and shipping lanes add the rest. No canals or major straits on this leg, the ship stays close to the direct line.
Shipping time depends on speed. At 14 knots, a common container ship service speed, the passage takes 18.5 days at sea. Slow steaming at 12 knots stretches it to 21.6 days, while 18 knots brings it down to 14.4. 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 Callao and Auckland to plan the full ocean transit time.
