My wife & I will be skiing in the States next April & will then be heading to Spain to tour Europe. We will have our ski bags which we do not particularly want to carry around Europe. The cost of sending ski bags back from the States to Australia by air freight or evening shipping is not cheap. Does any one know if it is possible to purchase a seat using FF's & then sending skis bags unaccompanied back to Australia??. Failing this does anyone know of a method of forwarding ski bags to Australia that is reasonable in cost. We are flying Bus Class to the States & then to Europe & back home to Australia, so we can take the ski bags for free with us but it is a pain> Appreciate any suggestions.
