About the Savannah to Valencia shipping route

Savannah to Valencia is a 4,091 nautical mile shipping route on a direct course, heading north east from the United States to Spain. That is 7,576 km of water against 7,087 km as the crow flies. On the way the vessel passes Strait of Gibraltar.

Pure steaming time is 12.2 days at 14 knots. A carrier that slow steams at 12 knots to save fuel needs 14.2 days, and a fast 18 knot string about 9.5. 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 Valencia to plan the full ocean transit time.

976 nm of the route, 24% 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 Valencia move with fuel prices, ship capacity and the season. Compare several carriers before booking: the cheapest sailing is often the slowest one. At Valencia (ESVLC) carriers give about 6 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, Valencia is the 17th shortest. Closer destinations include Hamburg (4,042 nm), Bremerhaven (3,995 nm) and Gothenburg (3,961 nm).
