This is keeping in line with the trends seen so far in 2024, say the Danish analysts, where global schedule reliability has largely been within 50%-55%.

On a year-on-year level, however, schedule reliability in June 2024 was down 9.8%.

Additionally, the average delay for late vessel arrivals also deteriorated, increasing by 0.04 days month-on-month to 5.19 days.

“This is now the third-highest figure for the month, only surpassed by the pandemic highs of 2021-2022. On a Y/Y level, the June 2024 figure was 0.82 days higher,” noted Sea-Intelligence in the analysis.
