About the Mundra to Marsaxlokk shipping route

Ships leaving Mundra for Marsaxlokk head north west and cover a sea distance of 4,008 nautical miles (7,422 km), via Suez Canal. The straight line between the ports is 5,472 km; coastlines and shipping lanes add the rest. On the way the vessel passes Suez Canal and Bab-el-Mandeb, so canal transit fees and waiting time at the canal are part of every voyage.

Pure steaming time is 11.9 days at 14 knots. A carrier that slow steams at 12 knots to save fuel needs 13.9 days, and a fast 18 knot string about 9.3. 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 Mundra and Marsaxlokk to plan the full ocean transit time.

952 nm of the route, 24% 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 Mundra to Marsaxlokk move with fuel prices, ship capacity and the season. Compare several carriers before booking: the cheapest sailing is often the slowest one. At Marsaxlokk (MTMAR) carriers give about 6 free days before demurrage and detention charges start, so plan the truck or rail pickup before the box lands.
