About the Singapore to Tokyo shipping route
Ships leaving Singapore for Tokyo head north east and cover a sea distance of 2,952 nautical miles (5,467 km), on a direct course. The straight line between the ports is 5,328 km; coastlines and shipping lanes add the rest. No canals or major straits on this leg, the ship stays close to the direct line.
At sea, the voyage lasts 10.3 days at 12 knots, 8.8 days at 14 knots and 6.8 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. Add terminal time at Singapore and Tokyo to plan the full ocean transit time.
Container freight rates on Singapore to Tokyo move with fuel prices, ship capacity and the season. Compare several carriers before booking: the cheapest sailing is often the slowest one. At Tokyo (JPTYO) carriers give about 8 free days before demurrage and detention charges start, so plan the truck or rail pickup before the box lands.
