Airfreight bikes to UB in Mongolia

Hi All
Anybody done this recently. Looking at air freighting bikes into UB next year and just wondering if anybody has any experience of this?

How easy was clearance etc.

Having had stuff get 'lost' when previously sent to Mongolia I would be interested to hear your thoughts.

Regards

Callum

I used Landbridge Logistics to airfreight out of UB to England and it all went pretty smoothly, maybe they can do the reverse and avoid any problems.

They were the only one of the 4 air freight company's in UB I contacted that responded

Air Freight into Mongolia

I tried to use these "clowns" in 2011.

It was a nightmare. Polite but with a lack of diligence that surpassed incompetence. It's covered here, in gruesome detail . . . but be careful.

The ultimate response was to ignore my contacts and requests for information/clarification and responsibility.

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.
