The Transatlantic Route

The transatlantic sea route is one of the oldest and best-established commercial routes in the world. From European ports, ships cross the Atlantic Ocean, reaching US East Coast ports in 12-20 days (from Northern Europe) or 25-40 days (from Constanța/Mediterranean).

For the West Coast (Los Angeles, Long Beach, Seattle), ships transit the Panama Canal, adding 7-14 days to the total transit. Crystal Logistics manages the entire process, including US customs formalities (AMS, ISF 10+2) and domestic distribution in the USA.
