Hi Groovie,

Welcome to FT & the EK community.

I can confirm the below mentioned.

1) EK will not check in the car body kit under your baggage allowance.

2) The car kit will have to sent by EK Sky Cargo. For this you need to contact EK Sky Cargo seprately and book you cargo with them.

3) All airlines charge air cargo on Volume Weight & not Gross Weight. You can find the formule if you google.

4) Would also suggest to contact a reputed Air Freight Forwarder in IAH as they may be able to provide the BEST deal avialable for your cargo since they have access to discounts as they move a lot of volume with the airlines where as if you go to an airline directly then you will be charges the Max price applicable.

Hope this helps.

Safe Flying
