About the Los Angeles to Tanjung Priok shipping route
Ships leaving Los Angeles for Tanjung Priok head north west and cover a sea distance of 8,015 nautical miles (14,843 km), on a direct course. The straight line between the ports is 14,449 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 23.9 days at sea. Slow steaming at 12 knots stretches it to 27.8 days, while 18 knots brings it down to 18.6. 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 Los Angeles and Tanjung Priok to plan the full ocean transit time.
440 nm of the route, 5% of it, lies inside North American 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 Los Angeles 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.
