SIDNEY, AUSTRALIA

We thought that the best option to transport the 2 dogs to Sydney would be by air transport for 3
reasons:

1. Speed: Air transport is the fastest way to ship animals long distances. Airplanes can cover
long distances in a short time, which reduces stress and discomfort for the animals during
the trip.
2. Safety: Airlines often have specific policies and procedures for transporting animals,
including dogs. These policies are designed to ensure the safety and well-being of pets
during travel.
3. Experience and regulations: Airlines are familiar with the requirements and regulations for
transporting animals, both domestically and internationally. They follow specific guidelines
to ensure that animals are transported safely and comply with health and documentation
requirements.

The dogs would be shipped from the Santiago airport to the Sydney airport, called "Kingsford
Smith International Airport."

EASTER ISLAND

The best option for transporting 10 computers from Santiago to Easter Island would be air
transport for the following reasons:

1. Regular connections: There are regular flights between Santiago, Chile and Easter Island,
which facilitates the shipment of the computers in a timely manner.
2. Lower risk of damage: Air transport generally involves a lower risk of damage to cargo
compared to other modes of transport. Airplanes are designed to transport goods safely,
minimizing the risk of bumps, drops or damage caused by adverse weather conditions.
3. Shorter transit time: Air transport offers shorter transit times compared to other modes of
transportation. This means that the computers will arrive on Easter Island in less time,
which can be especially important if quick delivery is needed.

The computers would be shipped from Santiago airport to Easter Island's airport, called "Mataveri
International Airport".
Advantages of air freight transportation:

1. Speed: Air transportation is the fastest mode of transportation available, making it

especially recommended when time is an important factor.
2. Access to remote areas: Air freight can reach areas that are not easily accessible by other
means of transportation, making it a suitable option for delivering goods to remote or
hard-to-reach destinations.
3. Transport of perishable or high-value goods: Air transport is suitable for transporting
perishable or high-value goods over long distances as it offers fast and secure delivery
time.

Disadvantages of air freight transportation:

1. High cost: Air transportation is the most expensive means of transportation, which can
make it less accessible for certain types of goods or companies with limited budgets.
2. Influence of climate: Air transport is largely conditioned by climatic conditions. Snow, rain,
fog, among other weather factors, may cause the cancellation of scheduled flights and the
suspension of air service.
3. Size and weight limitations: Air transportation has limitations on the size and weight of
the goods that can be transported. It is not suitable for shipping large heavy and bulky
materials.
RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL

The best option to transport cars to Rio de Janeiro would be by ship for the following reasons:

1. Cargo capacity: Cargo ships have a large capacity to transport many vehicles in a single
trip.
2. Cost: In general, maritime transportation is usually cheaper compared to other means of
transportation. This is because ships can transport many vehicles at a time, which reduces
operating costs per unit.
3. Lower fuel consumption: Maritime transport tends to have lower fuel consumption per
unit of cargo transported, as ships are more fuel efficient over long distances.
4. Global connectivity: Maritime transport offers a wide network of routes and connections
worldwide, which facilitates the transport of cars to different international destinations.

Cars would be shipped from the port of Valparaiso or the port of San Antonio to the port of Rio de
Janeiro.

Advantages of maritime freight transport:

1. Load capacity: Maritime transport has a large load capacity, which makes it ideal for the
transport of bulk or high-volume goods.
2. Lower cost: Compared to other modes of transportation, ocean freight tends to be
cheaper, especially for long-distance shipments.
3. Lower environmental impact: Maritime transport is considered one of the most
environmentally sustainable modes of transport, as it emits fewer greenhouse gases per
ton of cargo transported compared to other modes of transport such as air or land
transport.

Disadvantages of maritime freight transport:

1. Longer transit time: Sea freight generally has a longer transit time compared to other
modes of transportation, which may not be suitable for urgent or perishable shipments.
2. Dependence on weather conditions: Adverse weather conditions can affect ship schedules
and cause delays in the delivery of goods.
3. Greater logistical complexity: Maritime transport implies greater logistical complexity in
terms of route coordination, customs procedures and container handling in ports.
