Has anyone become an air courier or known anyone who has ? (N.B. I'm talking about LEGAL courier work with the IAATC)
Is this a good way to get Frequent Flyers points / Status ? How easy is it to get a job as a courier, and have people had problems with going to one place on a job and having difficulties going home (i.e. do they give you return flights or just one way) ?
To me, it seems a somewhat, unknown about area, almost secretive ; not a great deal of people seem to know about it.
Has any ever had any good / bad experiences about it that they would like to talk about ? Some say that whoever you courier for will pay a percentage / some of the ticket price, maybe all, but that's in return for your cargo space.
