Kinshasa to Lumumbashi by cargo plane cheap$
This may help you to avoid 2400km
Of bad roads,
"HI Roman,
We are in Lubumbashi now.
Because we are with 4 guys for 3 bikes and we had to gain some time and money we toke a plane. (However I prefered biking, bikes are made to drive !)
But flying isit' s cheaper then driving !
And flying with an old cargo plane in DRC is fun !
we had to pay 1,50 dollar / kg
the bikes are around 180 kg each.
we, the persons, could fly for free with the cargo plane.
You can take your luggage with you on the plane, so you dont have to pay for that. they only check the weight of your bike.
I think your BMW is around 250 kg?*
So that makes 375 dollar.
If you have to drive and take expensive fuell....
The flight takes 2h.
If you are in Kinshas, go to TRANSAIRCARGOSERVICE.
Then you ask for Didier. (I can send you his number)
He will arrange i good price. (fist they asked 1,60 dollar, after a talk it was 1,50 dollar and at the end a little bit less...)
We did not had any problem wit the police in Kin, so do not be affraid.
To sleep you go to the catolic mission next to the America ambassy, ask baltazar !
Take Care

It's an option.
