Lisa,
There is only 1 company that does cargo to BKK, Thai airways.
They charge:
1.37 + 0.07 dollar per kg
This kg is the real weight of the bike or the volumetric weight (based on the size of the crate), wichever is higher they'll charge you. If higher than 500kg the price drops to 1,07 + 07 dollar per kg.
Our Vstrom was 314 real weight and 320 volumetric weight (take frontwheel off, no side panniers, no windscreen,...)
100 dollar dangerous goods charge
2 dollar airwaybill charge
This is what you pay for Thai airways
Eagle eye cargo charges than shipping agent charges:
80 dollar for the crate
70 dollar for all the paperwork/customs/transport
562 + 150 = 712 dollar
In BKK we had to pay around 1500 baht for clearing and storage.
For your own flight: 2 possibilities Thai airways (flights every day 330 dollar) and Nepal airlines (Flights on monday and friday 230 dollar).
Helena restaurant is in all the guestbooks. It's on one of the main streets of Thamel. You'll find it. Eagle eye export is on the right of Helena's.
If you have any other questions, please contact me...
Enjoy Nepal!
