About the Tanjung Priok to Los Angeles shipping route
Ships leaving Tanjung Priok for Los Angeles head north east and cover a sea distance of 8,015 nautical miles (14,843 km), on a direct course. The straight line between the ports is 14,449 km; coastlines and shipping lanes add the rest. No canals or major straits on this leg, the ship stays close to the direct line.
Pure steaming time is 23.9 days at 14 knots. A carrier that slow steams at 12 knots to save fuel needs 27.8 days, and a fast 18 knot string about 18.6. 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 Tanjung Priok and Los Angeles to plan the full ocean transit time.
440 nm of the route, 5% 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 Tanjung Priok to Los Angeles move with fuel prices, ship capacity and the season. Compare several carriers before booking: the cheapest sailing is often the slowest one. At Los Angeles (USLAX) carriers give about 4 free days before demurrage and detention charges start, so plan the truck or rail pickup before the box lands.
Of the 65 port to port routes from Tanjung Priok in this directory, Los Angeles is the 45th shortest. Closer destinations include Lagos (Apapa) (7,840 nm), Oakland (7,731 nm) and Vancouver (7,504 nm).
