Courier companies in NY?
Hi - I have been looking to fly as a courier over winter break to
Europe, but haven't had any luck finding contact info of courier companies in NYC (flying out of JFK). I've gotten ahold of several books, but they are from the 90's and the telephone #s are out-of-date, companies have gone out of business, etc. I also searched usenet on google, but had the same problem with out-of-date info. Yellow pages searches online have 100s of results, and I can't get ahold of a real NYC phonebook. I was hoping people here knew of some companies and their phone numbers. I'd be looking to fly to Russia. Please respond to the group. Thanks, Dave |

Courier companies in NY?
Hi - I tried yahoo yellow pages, which is similar - the only problem is
it includes normal courier services like FEDEX in the results, as well as int'l couriers that don't sell discounted tickets (I tried calling a few) - not knowing the individual businesses, it's kind of hard to tell which is which. Thanks for the suggestion though. Dave Did you try http://www.dexonline.com/ Search for air courier service 169 matches in New York, NY and surrounding area |

Thanks, Dave I suspect that you'll find that little remains of the old "courier" business, once an attractive method to finance an air trip overseas. Be careful of the conmen who will attempt to take your money for giving you access to their sure-fire ever-available list of folks looking for couriers, and remember that the three major US air freight companies now have service to almost every street address in Europe and Asia, dependable guaranteed delivery, and a hell of a lot less insurance cost for any shipper than some guy named "krem1" might enjoy.
