Air freight, do you have to buy the plane
So as I was enquiring about a carnet for a upcoming RTW trip starting next March I also enquired about air freight. At the minute I work in Jordan and come next March when my work is finished I’m off. The plan was to ride overland to Jordan but now I will only be back in the uk for a few weeks with not enough time time get to Jordan, also the uncertainty of ferry and entry via Israel.
So I asked for a quote Belfast to Amman  
After I picked myself of the floor I read it again
Bike Transport Belfast -London. £2200
Bespoke crating £500
Air prep and delivery to airline £350
Export documents and licence £325
....... air freight London to Amman £10000
And then the fees Jordan side 
Can someone tell me is this crazy expensive or the norm for airfreight. Looks like I’ll be overland gumball style to turkey to leave my bike with a friend and wait out the borders opening.
I don’t want to publish the freight company as I’m not out to give bad press to anyone
