Comprehensive
Global Schedules
All
carriers and all liner services in the trades below are covered.
The schedules
are updated daily as carriers adjust their services.
Schedule
Analyzer Place
your mouse over different areas of the table below to see how the schedule
analyzer can benefit you in this every day scenario.
Assume your company has just signed a
contract with a manufacturer near Ningbo, China and you must set contracts
to bring the product to your central California plant for processing.
Multiple Port Searches
You want to receive the cargo in Oakland but want to review your options for three ports in China: Shanghai, Ningbo, and Xiamen. ComPair allows you to compare all your options at once.
Service rather than Carrier Focus
The major carrier alliances are highlighted in selected colors. The Green Alliance offers two possible services. By listing services rather than carriers, you get a real indications of how many services are actually available between a pair of ports.
Vessel Sharing Arrangements
Shanghai Shipping and ABC Line share space on this service which calls both Shanghai and Ningbo. You can check their published rates by linking directly to their websites on the Service Detail page.
Compare days of Departure/Arrival
All the services are weekly but the Wednesday arrival of the Green Alliance's China Express service will permit you to receive the goods over the weekend for start of assembly on Monday.
Compare Transit Times and Feeder Status
The table shows the inbound transit times in red. While you would like to avoid inland shipping charges in China and while the Ningbo transit time is ok, your experience with Green Alliance's feeder service is spotty. You would rather go with a direct service. Shanghai has two direct sailings a week with good transit times so you decide to set up your shipping operation from Shanghai, and negotiate a primary contract with your preferred Green Alliance carrier and a lower volume contract with Shanghai Shipping out of Ningbo.
