Airfreight quote South Africa to Dallas $3,689
Oceanfreight quote South Africa to Houston $1,847

I did an ocean freight shipment during Covid years. Original quote was about $1500 less than air, but couldn’t get on a flight because of Covid backlog. Ended up being charged over the $1500 savings in port fees (in Houston) that no one in the process mentioned. Would just encourage you to check and double check if your goal is to save money.
