How it travels

Estimated sea route from Koper (Slovenia) to Chittagong.

The estimated sea route between Koper (Slovenia) and Chittagong is 12,683 nautical miles (23,489 km) long: ≈ 29.5–37.5 days at sea (at 18 and 14 knots).

Because of the 2024 disruptions, traffic is split: 85% via the Strait of Gibraltar and the Cape of Good Hope (12,683 nautical miles); and 15% via the Suez Canal and the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait (6,184 nautical miles).

Austria is landlocked: it ships through Koper (Slovenia).

Methodology

Goods trade from CEPII BACI (BACI_HS92_V202601), in current US dollars, with exports and imports reconciled between countries. The transport mode is our own estimate based on value per kilo and geography. The sea route comes from our own network derived from World Bank shipping density (not from nautical charts), between one main reference port per country (World Port Index); days are the distance at 14 and 18 knots, without port calls or waiting. Data up to 2024.
