Air-freighting computers etc????
Our furniture has gone, our house has gone, but we still have computers, loads of files and books and a couple of suitcases to go (about 200kg). Has anyone any experience of air-freighting this sort of stuff? I've looked at the Excess Baggage website and they estimate £5.75 per kilo London to Brisbane, door-to-door. Anyone used them or anyone else for air-freight?

Excess Baggage shipped a couple of boxes for me - they were cheaper than most, and I've no complaints.
The computer came out separately by air freight from my moving company - they were awful to deal with, but the computer arrived in one piece, no problems. Cost about $400 for the pc and a box of junk. Make sure they are used to doing computers - mine was in a box attached to a wooden pallet so it couldn't be tipped up or thrown around.
