About the Savannah to Tanjung Priok shipping route
The shipping route from Savannah, United States to Tanjung Priok, Indonesia covers 10,960 nautical miles port to port, via Suez Canal. On a globe the two ports sit 17,009 km apart, so the ship sails 1.19 times the straight line distance. On the way the vessel passes Strait of Gibraltar, Bab-el-Mandeb, Suez Canal and Sunda Strait, so canal transit fees and waiting time at the canal are part of every voyage.
Shipping time depends on speed. At 14 knots, a common container ship service speed, the passage takes 32.6 days at sea. Slow steaming at 12 knots stretches it to 38.1 days, while 18 knots brings it down to 25.4. 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 Tanjung Priok to plan the full ocean transit time.
The shortest route goes through the Red Sea. Since attacks on shipping began there in late 2023, many carriers send ships via Cape of Good Hope instead. That route is 12,116 nautical miles, 1,157 more, and adds about 3.4 days at 14 knots. Longer voyages burn more fuel and tie up more ships, which is why freight rates on Red Sea lanes jumped when the diversions started.
2,496 nm of the route, 23% of it, lies inside North American ECA and 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 Savannah 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.
