Road
For our own routes we measure along the real road waypoints; otherwise straight-line distance × a road factor calibrated by region (about 1.1–1.3). About 600 km of driving per day, plus border and loading days. TIR is checked for both countries.
Sea
Shortest path along a network of real shipping lanes and canals, port to port, at about 16 knots (~700 km per day), plus about 3 days of port handling.
Rail
Distance × 1.3 rail factor at about 850 km per day (China–Europe block-train pace), plus terminal and border or gauge-change days, only on connected networks.
Air
Great-circle distance at about 820 km/h, plus handling and connections for a realistic door-to-door time.
