ANALYSTS at Sea Intelligence say container line schedule reliability continue to 'creep' upwards month-to-month in March to 35.9 per cent, reports Colchester's Seatrade Maritime News.
But reliability is still lower than a year earlier. 'Despite being the highest 2022 reliability figure so far, the March 2022 score is still slightly below the 2021 level,' commented Alan Murphy, CEO of Sea-Intelligence.
The analyst surveys schedule reliability of over 60 lines across 34 different trades.
The only line to record a schedule reliability above 50 per cent was Maersk with a 50.3 per cent rating. Next highest was Maersk subsidiary Hamburg Sud with a schedule reliability of 45.9 per cent. Wan Hai Lines had the lowest schedule reliability in March of 22.6 per cent.
'On a year-on-year level, only three of the top-14 carriers recorded an improvement in schedule reliability in March 2022, with the largest improvement of just 1.6 percentage points,' Mr Murphy said.
