Problems flying bike into India
Hi all,
I have a dilema that I need some advice / help on.
Having travelled to Turkey on the bike, I now need to fly it into India from Istanbul. Not keen on taking the three of us (girlfriend, me, bike) through Iran / Pakistan at the moment.
According to the agents / airline (Lufthansa) that I have spoken to so far nobody wants to ship personal effects to India from Turkey! Another issue they have is that the bikes needs to be crated (no problem for me though) and that for some reason the agent in India that I have spoken to wants me to have special permission written from the Indian government to allow me to ride the bike around India. Insanity prevails, so I'm hoping to get some answers next week. If anyone can possibly shed some light on this, or supply some names / emails of helpful people, I'd be a happy chappy,
Cheers,
Brian
