Sea freight vs rail freight cost: 

From Dubai, sea freight to Europe typically costs AED 8,000-15,000 for a 20ft container, while rail freight through the Asia-Europe route ranges from AED 12,000-20,000. For Dubai to Asia destinations, sea freight averages AED 4,500-10,000 per 20ft container, compared to rail freight costs of AED 7,000-14,000. While rail offers faster transit times, sea freight from Dubai remains the more economical choice for most routes due to established shipping lanes and port infrastructure. The cost difference varies based on specific destinations, cargo volume, and current market conditions.
