Flights
 
Hi All

I wonder if anyone could help us?

We are planning to move out to Oz at the end of February and wanted to get some advice on the best people to fly with.

We are 2 adults flying one way to Perth, we have our PR Visas and need to also get the best deal on baggage allowance.

Is anyone looking to fly out soon who could give us some advice?

We are also looking for a good international shipping company. Any ideas?
We are only taking 3 cubic metres and have been quoted £1100 which seems quite a lot.

Thanks
Julie :)

Hi Julie

We are moving over in May to Perth i would also like to know how much it is for one way flights.
In Glasgow we got s quote for £430.00 each.
Dont know if thats a good price. :confused:
We have been getting different prices for containers.

3 cubic metres is 106 cubic feet, Lawlaw you shipped about that didn't you?

I can recommend Singapore Airlines

Lawlaw, how long did Excess take to get back to you after the online estimation?

I'd recommend Singapore. Flew with them in 2004 and will fly with them again around March time. Cost is roughly around £400 with taxes. You can take extra 20kg luggage allowance but have to have visa stamp in passport and they only allow you to do it once. :)
