Sea, air and land. One coordinated shipment.

Sea–Air freight: connect the ocean leg with an air movement

Sea–Air moves cargo by ocean to an agreed transfer gateway, followed by an air leg. It is an option to assess when the shipment allows an ocean segment but needs an onward air connection. Our team reviews the complete route, cargo acceptance, transfer arrangements and available capacity before proposing a movement. Compare the end-to-end cost and timing, including handling and the connection between port and airport.

• Cargo suitability for both sea and air
• Port-to-airport transfer arrangements
• Connection timing and receiving deadline
• Handling, documentation and total charges

Air–Sea freight: plan the sequence around the shipment

Air–Sea combines an initial air movement with an onward ocean leg where the route and commercial requirement justify that sequence. Our team assesses flight arrival, transfer handling, ocean receiving cutoffs and the cargo’s final destination. We compare the proposed combination with other available options so each leg has a clear purpose in the shipment plan.

Sea–land and land–sea: connect the port with the final address

An import movement may continue from the port to a warehouse, factory or project site. An export may start with inland collection, container positioning and delivery to the terminal. Lexus coordinates the agreed inland and ocean scope, including container haulage where required. The plan identifies site access, loading or unloading arrangements, port handover and empty-container return responsibilities.

Coordinated by Lexus’s own team

Our in-house freight forwarding team brings the cargo requirements, routing and handover instructions into one coordinated plan. Airlines, vessel-operating carriers and transport providers perform the relevant transport legs. We align the agreed scope with those providers and the shipper and consignee, so each party understands its responsibilities before the movement is confirmed.

• A coordinating contact within Lexus
• Cargo and route assessment across transport modes
• Transfer and document requirements reviewed together
• Written service scope before booking

Evaluate the complete journey

A combined route should be assessed on the whole movement. Include transfer handling, inland connections, storage exposure, cargo restrictions, documentation and the time between transport legs. Cost or transit-time advantages depend on the specific route and available services; changing modes does not automatically make a shipment faster or less expensive.

Start with your cargo and delivery priority

Send the actual origin and destination, commodity, packed dimensions, package count, gross weight and cargo-ready date. Add the required delivery date and explain whether your priority is timing, cost or a particular handling requirement. If you already have a mode combination or transfer point in mind, include it; otherwise our team can assess available options.

• Collection and final delivery locations
• Cargo description, dimensions and gross weight
• Cargo-ready date and receiving deadline
• Preferred service scope and any handling restrictions
