Via the Panama Canal or via the Cape of Good Hope
Via the Panama Canal (11,082 nm) is the shortest route, for Panamax and Neo-Panamax ships; the canal charges a transit fee. Via the Cape of Good Hope (13,932 nm, 2,850 nm or 8.5 days longer at 14 knots) is the route for ships too large for the canal laden, and the usual alternative when the canal is restricted or avoided, as during the Panama Canal draught limits of 2023–24. Canal waiting time is not included.
