I booked passage for 'Gherkin' my 800gs yesterday for a May 1 flight Toronto-Frankfurt. I will follow the bike May 2. A/C cannot book bikes more than 29 days prior to flight date. As mentioned by Otherworld, they are honouring the 2016 pricing. All in pricing is about $1150 cdn to be paid upon tendering the bike in Toronto. (Plus Dangerous goods cert about $100 cdn each way which shipper must obtain). I am also told that there is a 15 Euro 'customs' charge in Frankfurt.
Re collision / theft insurance, I wasn't planning on it with my 4 year old 60,000 km bike. If it's readily and reasonably available, I would be interested in the details, though...
