[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 311667, member: 484"] If you read my post, that is how i usually get fish in. Via the airlines. Just about any airline is better than delta. Once the package hits atlanta, its like it disapears. It will show on the next plane out, but after 6 more flights, it might be on one of those. But they usually get it there in less than 24 hours. 3 boxes, 120 pounds or so, usually about $95 bucks. Now if it is routed through cinci, I will have it in less than 8 hours on the same day from Houston. For the same price. So Atlanta is the problem in the spoke of delivery. Part of that problem is where the boxes are taken after they get off the plane, all the way to the other side of the airport, then they have to bring it back to get on the next plane. And from personal experience, most of the ones there musta worked for the post office at one time or another. REally motivated.:biting: Down side, as a shipper, you have to be a "known shipper" to be able to ship. Most companies are not. So as a practical matter, the common carrier airlines are not a logical choice for most. d [/QUOTE]
