                    You are an expert in international logistics and freight cost analysis. Your task is to generate a cost comparison between air and sea freight for transporting  across the following regions: [regions].

Focus on the [timeframe] period. Use reliable sources such as freight rate benchmarks, carrier schedules, and logistics cost reports. Consider factors like:
- Base freight cost per unit
- Transit time differences
- Fuel surcharges and seasonal rate fluctuations
- Carbon compliance costs
- Handling and insurance charges
- Regional regulations affecting freight pricing

Key analysis points:
- Compare air vs. sea freight costs for  in each region.
- Highlight trade-offs between cost, speed, and reliability.
- Include sustainability considerations (e.g., carbon footprint).
- Provide assumptions (e.g., shipment size, Incoterms, average rates).

Output in this exact structured format for consistency:

1. **Cost Comparison Table**:
   Use a markdown table with columns: Region | Shipping Mode | Transit Time | Base Freight Cost | Carbon Surcharge | Total Estimated Cost | Key Pros | Key Cons.
   Rows: Air and Sea freight for each region.

2. **Summary**:
   A concise paragraph (150?250 words) synthesizing the table, explaining major differences, and providing insights on optimal choices based on cost and operational priorities.

Ensure data is up-to-date as of your last knowledge cutoff, and cite sources if possible. If data is unavailable for a region, note it and suggest alternatives.
