Hey everyone! I'm moving this october/november from germany. I definitely need to bring my snowboard & mountainbike and I'm now trying to figure out whats the best option. I know that some airlines allow sporting equipment for free or extra while others don't at all. The problem is that these airlines are usualy a lot more epensive (cheapest flight is 480€, Lufthansa which has free sports luggage is ~1400€). I believe thai airways had a cheap flight for around 500€ but only one piece of luggage and sporting equipment costs 130€ per item…
A friend told me about reserving a specific volume in a container and ship it (he said it would be around 150€) but I can't find a good option for that… If anyone has any experience with that I would really appreciate it!
My plan would be to take the cheap flight with one piece of luggage and then (if not too expensive) send my snowboards, 2 mtb's, extra luggage and maybe my desktop pc via the container. The problem is that the only websites I found for shipping cost 400-500€ and that's too much imo.
