Sea-Intelligence published the most recent edition of the Global Liner Performance (GLP), with schedule reliability figures up to and including December 2022.
According to Sea-Intelligence, the rapid increase in schedule reliability in the second half of the year has fallen somewhat, with the month-on-month M/M increase in December of a marginal 0.1% points to 56.6%.
On a year-on-year (Y/Y level), however, schedule reliability was up by 24.8%. The average delay for LATE vessel arrivals had been dropping consistently since the turn of the year. In December 2022 however, the average delay increased slightly, by 0.34 days M/M, and reached 5.43 days.
MSC was the most reliable top-14 carrier in December with 63.3%, followed by Maersk with 60.1%. The next 10 carriers recorded schedule reliability between 50%-60%, with only Yang Ming and ZIM recording schedule reliability of under 50%, at 47.7% and 47.2%, respectively.
10 of the top-14 carriers recorded a M/M improvement in schedule reliability in December 2022, while MSC recorded no change, and 3 carriers recorded a decline.
Yang Ming recorded the largest increase of 5.3 percentage points, while ZIM recorded the largest M/M decline of -6.1 percentage points. All carriers recorded double-digit Y/Y improvements though.
