Hybrid transportation modes are one of the solutions sought by shippers as they combine the benefits of two or more means of transport to achieve the most efficient routing possible.

Sea-Air transportation is seeing increasing demand, combining the advantages of both sea and air freight. Our customised Sea-Air solutions help you navigate challenges and support the effective and successful management of your supply chain and business.

How does it work?

Sea-air service is a hybrid transportation solution that combines the benefits of both sea freight and air freight to offer an optimised and cost-effective shipping option. It is particularly useful for international shipments, especially when there is a need to benefit from a balance between the cost-effectiveness of sea freight and the speedy transit times of air freight.

• Sea Freight Leg: The journey begins with the transportation of goods via sea freight.
• Transhipment: At a strategically located transhipment point, the cargo is transferred from the sea vessel to an air carrier.
• Air Freight Leg: The cargo is then transported by air to its final destination in between 1-2 days.

Why Sea-Air?

• Cost-Effective: Benefit from the cost savings of ocean freight combined with the speed of air freight. Sea-Air services offer a budget-friendly alternative for time-sensitive shipments.
