I think a 24 hr turn with four 6-hour movement pulses would be better. But that is a different problem.

The problem here is just as dTravel has stated. In order for my carriers to react, then you have to know where the Allied carriers are. But how can you know where they are when the movement impulse occurs before the search impulse? It's simple, the AI cheats and compares positions without regards to spotting and sends them on their merry reactive way.

The other part of this equation is: Why is the AI incapable of realizing that heavily damaged carriers that are incapable of flight ops should be running away, not towards the enemy in a futile banzai charge? Reaction should be determined BOTH ways: when to close and when to run (assuming you don't care about the fact that reaction occurs before spotting). That is the real problem with reaction IMO.
