How it travels
The estimated sea route between Haifa and Laem Chabang is 13,774 nautical miles (25,509 km) long: ≈ 32–41 days at sea (at 18 and 14 knots).
Because of the 2024 disruptions, traffic is split: 85% via the Strait of Gibraltar, the Cape of Good Hope and the Strait of Malacca and Singapore (13,774 nautical miles); and 15% via the Suez Canal, the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait and the Strait of Malacca and Singapore (6,178 nautical miles).
Sailing estimate without port calls, waiting or transshipment; not a schedule. One main reference port per country: in large countries it does not represent all of its ports.

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.
