Avoid Excess Fees By Shipping Golf Gear

With the autumn drawing in after what was lets face it a fairly underwhelming British summer

, now might well be a good time to jet off to the continent to enjoy a few rounds of golf in the sunshine. Whether youre a golf enthusiast or not, playing a few holes in new surroundings certainly beats trudging through the rain back home. But although air fares have generally grown more and more affordable over the last few years, shipping golfing equipment overseas can still turn out to be a rather expensive affair. Luckily, there are ways of dodging the excess baggage charges which have become the bane of many travellers existence.

When sending golf clubs overseas by air, there are several things to bear in mind. Firstly, golfing gear tends to be rather expensive so you dont want it getting bent out of shape as its being flown overseas, which is a risk when its being transported in the passenger hold of an aircraft. But most importantly, its likely to cost you a pretty penny in excess charges if you turn up at the airport with several bags filled with clubs and associated bits and pieces. Budget airlines tend to be particularly strict when it comes to excess baggage, and many passengers have voiced discontent at what they perceive to be low-cost carriers inflexibility in this regard.

However, its surprisingly easy to avoid incurring these additional costs. By recruiting the services of an excess luggage shipment specialist, you can have any extra equipment over and above your baggage allowance despatched to your intended destination for a reasonable cost. If youre heading to check out some foreign links, the chances are youll be travelling with a group of friends or acquaintances and no doubt theyll have a load of clubs and other belongings to take with them as well. By joining together and sending your gear out in one go, you can spread the cost and ensure you each pay less as a result. Not only does this save you money leaving you with more to spend while youre overseas but it also means you wont end up paying over the odds when you arrive at the airport to be confronted with penalty fees.
