国际海运的主要特点[1]是成本低,时间长,适合出货量大的外单。

  国际海运分两种方式:

  1、海运集装箱(CY):一票一柜或一票多柜。

  2、海运拼箱(CFS):三票以上集拼一个柜。

  集装箱有下列几种类型:

  1、20尺:大小是6*2.2*2.3,理论装30立方,实际装25—27CBM,18—23吨。

  2、20尺加重:大小是6*2.2*2.3,理论装30立方,实际装25—27CBM,25—28吨。

  3、40尺:大小是12*2.2*2.3,理论装60立方,实际装55—57CBM,18—23吨。

  4、40尺加高:大小是12*2.2*2.8,理论装73立方,实际装68—70CBM,18—23吨。 以上为主要使用的柜型,其他的还有比较少用的45尺、凳仔柜、开顶柜、冷藏柜等等。

国际海运的时效:国际海运的时效由目的地、船期等等因素决定。比如到美国洛衫矶(LA)如果是周四截周六开的船,14天到达。如果是周五截周日开的船,11天到达。而同样是美国城市,同样是周五截周日开的船,到奥克兰(OAK)要15天才能到达。比如到意大利的那不勒斯(NAPLES)如果是香港周一截周二开的船,18天到达。如果是香港周五截周日开的船,21天到达。而同样是欧洲城市,同样是周五截周日开的船,到西班牙巴塞罗那要25天才能到达。
