A Study on Competitiveness of Sea Transport by Comparing International Transport Routes between Korea and EU
This study analyzes competitiveness of the six Korea-Europe transport routes. For the criteria of analysis, the quantitative factors (total transport distance, total transport time, and total transport cost) and the qualitative factors (transport service, safety, and awareness) were selected and wei...

Route 1 was found the most competitive, and Route 5, the most widely used sea way was ranked the lowest.

For the criteria of analysis, the quantitative factors (total transport distance, total transport time, and total transport cost) and the qualitative factors (transport service, safety, and awareness) were selected and weighed.
