GAP · core-lane carrier review

What I'm looking at

I pulled 15 months of carrier scorecards (Mar ’25 – May ’26) for GAP's Hai Phong → Los Angeles lane. Each carrier is scored 0–10 on schedule reliability, transit time, offered capacity and rate vs market. Use this to see who's actually holding schedule on this lane before allocating peak-season volume.

Polly · reliability read on this lane

Reliability on Hai Phong → Los Angeles has been volatile and is deteriorating. The OCEAN Alliance carriers (CMA CGM, Evergreen, COSCO, OOCL) rebuilt on-time performance from the mid-teens in late 2025 to ~80% by early 2026 — CMA CGM the standout, its carrier score climbing 5.3 → 8.7 by Apr ’26. But the latest month flipped: CMA CGM fell to 3.1, and the THE Alliance pair (Yang Ming, HMM), strong all year at ~6.5–7, collapsed to ~2.5–4 as on-time dropped into single digits. Net: the lane average is down 2.8 points vs a year ago and no carrier is consistently reliable right now — CMA CGM holds the best current on-time (63%) but just lost schedule integrity. Split volume and watch the next refresh before locking peak-season bookings.

Cross-match to the carrier scorecard: This is what the carrier averages hide. ONE runs three services on this lane — VSE/PS5 at 100% on-time, but PS7 and PS3 at 0% (with a quarter of sailings cancelled) — so its ~32% carrier average is a blend of one strong loop and two failing ones. The OCEAN Alliance loops are the most reliable here (AS1 85.7%, EXX 75%), while the Premier transpacific loops (PS7, PS3) aren’t holding schedule at all right now. Evergreen appears only on the still-unrated SEA/MTE loop.

Per-service on-time, cancellations and announced-vs-actual transit · rolling 30-day window (as of 2026-06-05 15:17). Carriers co-operate one physical loop via vessel-sharing, so a single service spans several carriers' codes. “—” = too few completed voyages to score.
