China to Aruba FCL freight rates 2026 — container rates and booking notes
China to Aruba — FCL sailings and rates, 11–22 November 2026
Port-to-port ocean freight, per container, in USD. Each row is one sailing our booking desk was holding on 10 November 2026, so the rate belongs to that departure only. Confirm space and the level against your cargo ready date before you book.
| Sailing (ETD) | Loading port | Destination port | Equipment | Ocean freight | Booking notes |

How to read this allocation sheet
- One row is one sailing. The date is the ETD from the Chinese port in that row, and the rate belongs to that departure. Once the vessel sails the allocation is gone and we re-quote off the next one.
- Equipment codes. 20GP is a 20ft dry container, 40HQ a 40ft high cube, 40GP a 40ft standard box. 40NOR is a non-operating reefer: a refrigerated container carried as a dry unit. It suits general cargo, but it depends on empty reefer equipment at the loading port and it does not always price below the dry box.
- What the figure covers. Ocean freight port-to-port, per container, in USD. Origin handling, export declaration, THC and documentation, destination THC and destination charges, import duty and final delivery are additional unless a row says otherwise.
- Every loading port is priced separately. The same destination carries a different number out of Shanghai, Qingdao, Ningbo, Nansha, Shekou, Yantian, Tianjin and Dalian because each gateway sits on a different string or feeder. Compare gateway, equipment and ETD together.
- Short validity. These sailings run 11–22 November 2026 and the rates are quoted on 10 November 2026. If your cargo ready date falls outside that window, the figure has to be re-quoted.
- Barcadera is space only. The 15 November departure was released with container space but no freight level, so the row reads on request. That is normal for Caribbean calls fed from a hub, and it is not a closed sailing.
Send the commodity, gross weight, volume, the loading port in China and the delivery address in Aruba to sales8015@goodhopefreight.com and we will confirm the sailing, the equipment and the all-in cost.
Frequently asked questions — shipping from China
The answers below are drawn from the same allocation sheet as the table above. Figures are indicative and are reconfirmed at booking.
What is the latest ocean freight for a 20GP from Shanghai to Barcadera, Aruba?
The 15 November 2026 sailing is quoted on request: equipment and space were available to our desk, but the carrier is pricing that departure case by case rather than publishing a level. Send the cargo ready date, commodity and weight and we will come back with the named vessel and a firm figure for the sailing you can actually catch.
Which sailings from China to Aruba are open in November 2026?
One departure was on our desk on 10 November 2026: Shanghai to Barcadera on 15 November 2026, 20GP, space open with the rate on request. Aruba has no weekly string of its own, so space normally comes through a Caribbean or transhipment service; tell us your ready date and we will check the next connection rather than wait for the one sailing on this sheet.
Why is the Aruba rate on request instead of a published price?
A blank price on our allocation sheet means the carrier released container space without a rate for that departure. That usually happens when the sailing is filled from a transhipment hub, so the through freight is put together per booking. It does not mean the sailing is closed, and it does not mean the rate is high by definition; it means we have to quote it against your cargo.
