Shipping packages back to UK--DHL or Emirate Post?
I'm mailing some gifts back to the UK, and, as I've yet to do this, wanted some help deciding between DHL and normal Emirate post.
I reckon DHL is quicker and comes with a tracking number, but it is much more expensive? Any idea how much more expensive--two times, four times the price?
Anyone with experience--good or bad--with Emirate Post? I've had to mail documents, letters, etc., and it seems like they were okay--only took a week and cost something like 4Dhs.
Thanks!
Cheers,
Fritz

I sent back a gift weighing just over a kg to UK on Thursday morning and it will be there delivered on Monday. Yes it does cost more but at least you can guarantee it gets there Cost me AED515 but worth it
