Early Days, but Gemini Cooperation Shows Promising Reliability

Among the primary goals of the Gemini Cooperation, they are sustaining a 90% rate of schedule reliability, like they publicly praised they would do when they formed the alliance. So far, in the limited time that the Gemini Cooperation has been operating, they are on the right track. A complete evaluation of their schedule reliability will not be possible until July, the Journal of Commerce reports, as this is when the full rotation of services will be complete.

The Gemini Cooperation will have a total of twenty-eight shuttle services, once fully operational. According to data from Sea-Intelligence, fifteen of those have been launched since the alliance was launched in February. Additional data from Sea-Intelligence stated ten of those are deployed in Asia, two in Europe, and three in the Indian Subcontinent/Middle East. Schedule reliability for those shuttle services was at 98.4% in February, per Sea-Intelligence.

A few caveats though, a key one being that the Gemini Cooperation has not yet been fully rolled out – that will come in July – and only a small set of their vessels have been released in the new network. The next few months will be more challenging as more vessels will be integrated in. Additionally, as Sea-Intelligence reports, of the mainliner services that the Gemini Cooperation offers, none of them completed full origin-to-destination connects, as the transit time exceeds one month.
