Speed and cost
Air freight is much faster but costs more per kilogram. Sea freight takes weeks but is far cheaper for heavy or bulky cargo.
Choose air when
- The goods are urgent, high value or perishable
- Samples or spare parts are needed quickly
- The volume is small
Choose sea when
- The cargo is heavy or bulky
- Cost matters more than time
- You ship in FCL or LCL regularly
A middle way
Sea-air combines a sea leg and an air leg for a balance of speed and cost on some routes. Ask us for a comparison of all options.
