Your quote includes the main transit times of your shipment, like the transit time over the ocean or in the air:

Once you book a shipment, the transit time of each leg of the shipment will be estimated:

However, please keep in mind that these transit times are estimates, and your Flexport operations team will notify you of any delays.
