In context

How Pacific International Lines compares

Counts over companies and vessels actually held in this directory — not over the world fleet, which is larger. Nothing here is estimated.

No individual vessel in this registry currently names Pacific International Lines as its operator, so it has no counted fleet here. Its published figure of 99 ships is shown above with the source that reported it. Of the 1,543 commercial operators on record, 965 have at least one ship individually attributed.

Founded in 1967, Pacific International Lines is 59 years old. This directory holds 104 operators founded within five years either side of that date, whose median fleet on record is 1 ships. The median founding year across all commercial operators here is 1966, and the oldest on record dates to 1514.
