About the Savannah to Montreal shipping route
Ships leaving Savannah for Montreal head north and cover a sea distance of 2,101 nautical miles (3,891 km), on a direct course. The straight line between the ports is 1,628 km; coastlines and shipping lanes add the rest. No canals on this leg, the extra miles come from sailing around headlands and islands.
Pure steaming time is 6.3 days at 14 knots. A carrier that slow steams at 12 knots to save fuel needs 7.3 days, and a fast 18 knot string about 4.9. 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 Savannah and Montreal to plan the full ocean transit time.
2,087 nm of the route, 99% 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 Savannah to Montreal move with fuel prices, ship capacity and the season. Compare several carriers before booking: the cheapest sailing is often the slowest one. At Montreal (CAMTR) carriers give about 3 free days before demurrage and detention charges start, so plan the truck or rail pickup before the box lands.
Of the 64 port to port routes from Savannah in this directory, Montreal is the 5th shortest. Closer destinations include Cartagena (1,829 nm), Balboa (1,617 nm) and Houston (1,370 nm).
