air freight from OZ to South America ??
 

hi all, time for us to leave Down Under. Shipping the bike would take too long, so I decided to fly it to South America. Qantas is flying to Argentina three times a week, but we would prefer to go to Santiago de Chile, or find a cheaper deal. Any suggestions ? Thanks Damaris + Mika

You can try LanChile Cargo, but doubt they'll be cheaper than Qantas. http://www.lancargo.com.

"LAN Cargo quoting US$ 2,000.00 for this routing by air in Jan/2001"

I would also try Malaysian Airlines (I know it sounds odd, but we flew with them from Cape Town to Buenos Aires, so they do odd routes).

Cargo Reservations Email : ijamal@mas.com.my
Telephone: +603-85251656 (likely Malaysia)

You can also try P&O Nedlloyd, who do air cargo in addition to sea cargo.

And finally, a couple of air cargo firms which have offices in both Sydney and Santiago, so worth a try.

Unfortunately, it's an expensive stretch of water to cross. Good luck, and let us know how you go.

Good luck and safe travels!
