Oh, and they have no commercial freight flights into the island at all. Suddenly it doesn\u2019t sound quite so simple anymore\u2026<\/p>\n<p>The Challenge: Transporting a 2m tall crated digital marketing booth safely and cost effectively to Tenerife Airport. Tenerife is found in the Canary Islands in the Atlantic Ocean, 62 miles off the coast of Africa. There is no air freight to the island, so a combined road &amp; sea freight approach is needed.<\/p>\n<p>Our customer, Ottimo Digital, had created a bespoke Phone Booth style digital marketing booth for their client, and contacted EBISS to help them deliver this piece to the location dictated by their client \u2013 which was the Duty Free area of Tenerife Sud Airport.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1808\" style=\"width: 178px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ebiss-usa.com\/ebissuktest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Blog-9-Image-Phone-Box2.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1808\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1808\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ebiss-usa.com\/ebissuktest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Blog-9-Image-Phone-Box2-168x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"168\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ebiss-usa.com\/ebissuktest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Blog-9-Image-Phone-Box2-168x300.jpg 168w, https:\/\/www.ebiss-usa.com\/ebissuktest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Blog-9-Image-Phone-Box2-290x520.jpg 290w, https:\/\/www.ebiss-usa.com\/ebissuktest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Blog-9-Image-Phone-Box2-64x114.jpg 64w, https:\/\/www.ebiss-usa.com\/ebissuktest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Blog-9-Image-Phone-Box2.jpg 421w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 168px) 100vw, 168px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1808\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">2m tall, phone box style advertising booth<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The solution: We knew that this would require a combination of road and sea freight to achieve our goal. Using our extensive network of logistic contacts in the UK and Spain, we arranged a route that involved the booth travelling a total of 2471 miles via a combination of road and sea freight routes.<\/p>\n<p>The epic journey began in Newport, South Wales where the crate was collected and then transported to the Port of Dover, the short ferry trip to Calais was uneventful with the recently hyped border delays non-existent.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ebiss-usa.com\/ebissuktest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Blog-9-IMage-travel-infograqphics-824x232pxl.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1628 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ebiss-usa.com\/ebissuktest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Blog-9-IMage-travel-infograqphics-824x232pxl.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"824\" height=\"232\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ebiss-usa.com\/ebissuktest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Blog-9-IMage-travel-infograqphics-824x232pxl.jpg 824w, https:\/\/www.ebiss-usa.com\/ebissuktest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Blog-9-IMage-travel-infograqphics-824x232pxl-600x169.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.ebiss-usa.com\/ebissuktest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Blog-9-IMage-travel-infograqphics-824x232pxl-300x84.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ebiss-usa.com\/ebissuktest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Blog-9-IMage-travel-infograqphics-824x232pxl-768x216.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ebiss-usa.com\/ebissuktest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Blog-9-IMage-travel-infograqphics-824x232pxl-250x70.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 824px) 100vw, 824px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 150px;\">The Journey in numbers:<br \/>\n\u2022 2471 miles in total<br \/>\n\u2022 1605 road miles<br \/>\n\u2022 866 sea miles<br \/>\n\u2022 2 ferries<br \/>\n\u2022 3 road vehicles<br \/>\n\u2022 67 hours travelling time<br \/>\n\u2022 Over 25 travelling hours on the road<br \/>\n\u2022 42 \u00bd hours at sea<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Once rolled off the ferry it began the longest stretch of its road journey \u2013 the 970 miles to Madrid, ready for forwarding on to the Spanish port of Huelva where it could begin the longest sea section of its journey \u2013 the 834 miles to Santa Cruz de Tenerife, the capital of the island.
