Container line schedule reliability hit by Red Sea diversions

According to a report on the Seatrade Maritime News website, whilst 2023 saw a marked improvement in container line schedule reliability, overall, following the disruption caused to the supply chain during the Covid pandemic, the latest Global Liner Report from analysts Sea-Intelligence showed a 5 percentage points drop in schedule reliability from over 60 percent across some 34 different trades in December 2023.

Schedule reliability for our comprehensive network of international container shipping services, including LCL and FCL import and export operations, is key for Davies Turner and our customers, whose supply chains we manage.

We will do our best to overcome the problems caused by schedule reliability dropping to 56.8% in December 2023, the second lowest level seen in the year and just 0.4% higher than December 2022, with the drop coinciding with the onset of attacks by Houthi rebels in Yemen on ships passing through the southern Red Sea.
