Resurrecting an ancient thread, but I started it so I figure it's ok.
Never did do this when I first posted this, but we're sort-of doing it now. Going to China next month, then a week in Austria on the way back. Tour in China is limiting us to one bag 20kg each, mostly due to multiple internal flights. We'd like to pack an extra bag with clothes for Europe, and ship it from the hotel in Beijing (tour start) to the hotel in Hong Kong (tour end). No issue on our international flights, we can check multiple bags each.
I'm seeing posts elsewhere that shipping Beijing to Hong Kong is not as easy as to Shanghai. Is that true? Can anyone suggest a shipper that I can contact ahead of time to set this up? I'll be sure to contact the hotel in Hong Kong ahead of time to clear it with them.
