Thai Airways

Postby swellsnipper » Mon Oct 01, 2007 10:22 am

Hi,

Just got off the phone with Thai Airways. I asked how much it would be to take a board with me from Brussels to Sydney and I can't believe they're charging €280 :shock: A bicycle however can be transported at no extra charge if it is within the baggage allowance limit. What a rip-off!

Anyway, I already booked the tickets so I can't get another company.

Does anyone know some good board shops in the North of Sydney area.

Thanks a lot!

Thats crazy. I am sure you can get a nice board in Sydney for less than the cost of transporting one.

There's plenty of board shops around Sydney. Manly had several.
Decent selection both new and used.
