Sydney to Bangkok - how to get "actual" weight
Some lucky travellers have posted on this forum and in the database, giving details of their freight based on actual bke weight, not "equivalent volumetric" weight. This last thing is more thani 2x the actual weight for my bike, and that's how they calculate the price.
I have got nowhere with enquiries to the Qantas freight department. They just refered me to the "dangerous goods" freighters, then we end up having the same old talk about dimensions instead of weight.
So what am I doing/saying/thinking wrong that keeps getting an answer I don't like? :confused1:
I tried asking for a person who was mentioned by name in the DB but darn it was her day off. Wonder if I should ask for her again next week? But that entry was from three years ago - they've probably changed the policy since then.
