About OOCL Schedules
To find an OOCL departure on Globy, choose the origin port, destination port and date that match your shipment. The OOCL sailing schedule then shows the available options for the selected search.
If more than one departure is available, compare sailing dates as well as anticipated arrival dates. This comes in handy to use when a shipment needs to reach its destination in a specific time limit.
The schedule provides you with just the information you require to review each sailing. This includes, in no particular order, depending on the data at hand:
Origin and destination ports Departure and arrival dates Vessel name Voyage details Estimated transit time
The OOCL vessel schedule serves as a way to benchmark how long one sailing is expected to take against another. The full route information ensures, too, that no departure can be chosen without considering its likely arrival.
Dates and transit times can differ as schedules evolve from planned operations.
Consider a sailing that suits cargo readiness with the window needed for delivery. Using the free OOCL schedule, compare departure dates against expected arrivals and transit days and select which option fits the shipment best.
