Hi,
I will be riding my bike to Punta Arenas and from there I will fly to Santiago. Does anyone know if it's possible to buy a box for my bike there? Anyone having done the same? Or is there someone who flies to Punta Arenas at the end of January and will have a box...??
Any tips/advice is welcome.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Chris
Hi we are in punta arenas now and have got 2 bike boxes from 1 of the 2 bike shops in town. Not sure how we will get them to the airport yet but can keep you informed.
Thanks Lyn & Mike, that would be great!
Bike boxs we got from shop on sarmiento about 3 blocks up from the coast very helpful spoke english.
Thanks!
I was wondering when you booked your plane tickets, do you have to inform them that you bring a bike?? Any extra costs?
Cheers
We flew with lan on a cheap ticket which had 2 bags but 23kg total. Got charged for having extra 8kg of gear 22,000 peso so not too bad for 2 bikes and all our gear. So didnt charged for the bike. Spoke with another guy and he was charged us $100. For his bike so would pay to check with your airline.
