Contrasting schedule reliability in Taiwan’s container lines

Amid the Red Sea crisis, December 2023 witnessed a substantial -5.0% points month-on-month drop in global schedule reliability, marking the most significant decline since February 2021, settling at 56.8%, according to the report.

This makes December 2023 the second-lowest month for schedule reliability in the previous year. On a year-on-year basis, schedule reliability in December 2023 was only marginally higher by 0.4% points compared to December 2022. The average delay for LATE vessel arrivals also increased by 0.30 days month-on-month to 5.35 days, attributed to the round-of-Africa sailings.

In the last month of 2023, Taiwanese container line Evergreen emerged as the most reliable among the top-13 carriers, boasting a schedule reliability of 63.6%, closely followed by France’s CMA CGM as the only two carriers surpassing the 60% threshold.

Six carriers achieved schedule reliability within the 50%-60% range, while the remaining five carriers all fell between 40%-50%, with another Taiwanese carrier Yang Ming identified as the least reliable carrier at 45.6% schedule reliability for December 2023.

“Because of the increased transit times round of Africa, none of the top-13 carriers recorded an M/M improvement in schedule reliability, while only 4 carriers were able to record a Y/Y improvement,” said Alan Murphy, CEO, of Sea-Intelligence.
