About the Salalah to Jeddah shipping route
Ships leaving Salalah for Jeddah head west and cover a sea distance of 1,354 nautical miles (2,507 km), on a direct course. The straight line between the ports is 1,642 km; coastlines and shipping lanes add the rest. On the way the vessel passes Bab-el-Mandeb.
Pure steaming time is 4.0 days at 14 knots. A carrier that slow steams at 12 knots to save fuel needs 4.7 days, and a fast 18 knot string about 3.1. 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 Salalah and Jeddah to plan the full ocean transit time.
Container freight rates on Salalah to Jeddah move with fuel prices, ship capacity and the season. Compare several carriers before booking: the cheapest sailing is often the slowest one. At Jeddah (SAJED) carriers give about 7 free days before demurrage and detention charges start, so plan the truck or rail pickup before the box lands.
