Air Freight vs Sea Freight

Choosing between air and sea freight depends on three factors: speed, cost and cargo size.

Air freight is faster (3-7 days) and ideal for urgent or high-value goods, but costs more. Sea freight is more economical for large or heavy shipments, though it takes longer (21-35 days).

As a rule of thumb, use air freight for light, urgent shipments and sea freight for bulky, non-urgent cargo.
