About the Port Said to Incheon shipping route
Port Said to Incheon is a 7,672 nautical mile shipping route via Suez Canal, heading north east from Egypt to South Korea. That is 14,209 km of water against 8,302 km as the crow flies. On the way the vessel passes Suez Canal, Bab-el-Mandeb and Strait of Malacca, so canal transit fees and waiting time at the canal are part of every voyage.
At sea, the voyage lasts 26.6 days at 12 knots, 22.8 days at 14 knots and 17.8 days at 18 knots. 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.
