Sea-Air Cargo

A hybrid of sea and air transport for faster delivery at a lower cost than pure airfreight.

Overview

Cargo arrives by sea into Jebel Ali and flies the final leg out of DXB or DWC — typically well under airfreight cost with a fraction of the sea transit time. Dubai is the classic sea-air gateway between Asia and Europe, Africa and the Americas, and it's a strong fit for goods too urgent for full sea freight but not worth flying the whole way.

What's included

  • Sea leg into Jebel Ali, air leg out of DXB or DWC
  • Materially cheaper than end-to-end airfreight
  • Far quicker than full sea freight
