What you get for KMTC
- Forward sailings: vessel, voyage, service loop, departure and arrival dates, and cut-offs where KMTC publishes them.
- Coverage: intra-Asia trades with a strong Korea, China, Southeast Asia and India network.
- Reliability: once a lane has enough tracked port calls, we score KMTC on actual-vs-scheduled arrival, not on the schedule it published. Thin lanes are shown as low-sample, never guessed.
- Same shape as every line: KMTC reads the same as MSC, Maersk, or any other carrier, so you can rank them side by side.
How KMTC reliability is scored
We don't take a carrier's word for its transit time. When SchedulesMCP has enough tracked arrivals on a KMTC lane, it compares each actual arrival against what was scheduled and reports the observed on-time rate and the median and p90 transit. Lanes without enough observations are labelled low-sample rather than given a made-up score, so a number, when you see one, is real.
