Air shipping from USA to Asia (Thailand, Singapore, etc...)

I want to ship my bike by air from USA to somewhere in South East Asia. Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, etc... Specific destination not so important.
I'm not having much luck in finding information on air shipments in this direction.

So.... If you've air shipped your bike from USA to Asia please chime in with info about price, shipper, and from/to!

Thanks.

I ended up using Air Parcel Express (APX) to ship (by air) from Orlando, Florida, USA to Jakarta Indonesia. They also do sea cargo.
Their web address is:
International Shipping, International Cargo, Freight Forwarder, Air Cargo, Ocean Containers, Air Parcel Express, Inc
https://www.freight-calculator.com/AirCalculators.asp
Air Cargo ALL CARGO AIRCRAFT Freight Forwarder APX International Shipping

They weren't fabulous, they were't terrible. Just average. They wouldn't be my first choice to do this again but I wouldn't avoid them either. My bike got there about a week late (20 days from pickup to delivery). Price (mind you this is a large bike with a sidecar) was $3700, about the same as their instant quote had estimated.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
