Air and sea freight services are both essential for transporting goods around the world.
Air freight services are ideal for the quick delivery of valuable goods, while sea freight is preferred for heavyweight containers. The choice of one over the other usually depends on the nature of the goods being transported. Both services are important and useful for their respective users.
Air Freight Services
When looking for an air cargo service provider, extensive research is required. Airfreight or air cargo requires documentation such as a commercial invoice of goods, bill of entry, certificate to carry hazardous goods (if applicable),airway bill, list of packed goods, and related instructions. These documents must be submitted to start the journey of goods on an airplane and even when the aircraft lands. Collecting and submitting these documents may seem easy, but it is a delicate and meticulous process requiring special software in some cases. Proper formatting of these documents should be done by a professional. Air cargo companies have a team of experts that handle all the documentation on behalf of their customers.

Lower level of risk

Quick delivery is possible
In case of emergency import of certain essential goods, air freight should be preferred as it provides quick delivery.
Sea Freight Services
Shipping companies are preferred by businesses dealing with the bulk delivery of goods, not only because of the high quantity but also because of their weight in tonnes. Raw or processed food items, marine items, heavyweight machinery, armed armatures, utility items, different types of small-sized products, etc. are usually transported via sea freight. Apart from documentation, one needs to rent or buy containers, own a warehouse, and arrange for transportation of goods from one port to another port. It is hard to manage all of these tasks without proper guidance and experience. It is better to outsource these stages of sea freight services to a shipping company.
