Via the Suez Canal or via the Cape of Good Hope

Via the Suez Canal (8,624 nm) is the shortest route, for ships up to Suezmax size laden; the canal charges a transit fee. Via the Cape of Good Hope (13,595 nm, 4,971 nm or 14.8 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 Red Sea diversions since late 2023. Canal waiting time is not included.
