How These Figures Are Calculated

Routes, transit times and carrier shares come from containers loaded or discharged at Bilbao that started being tracked on ShipsGo between 25 April 2026 and 25 October 2026 and have since been discharged. Transit time runs from loading at the origin port to discharge at the destination. A route is shown only when enough containers were tracked on it for a meaningful average, and volumes are shown as shares rather than counts. The congestion level is refreshed every day. Route figures updated 25 October 2026.
