[QUOTE="Idaho Hunter1, post: 1737893, member: 110057"] So here are the FAA regs.... Dry ice is allowed on commercial flts but it has to be declared and only a certain amount is allowed on an aircraft. That number is likely way more than you have unless you are shipping a butcher shop home. FAA requires procedures for carriage of dry ice. The sticking point is that main line airline companies have found that it is usually easier and cheaper to not participate in the shipping of dry ice so they save money on not training or equipping their people to handle it. Fedex and UPS ship dry ice packages every day and have special procedures to do so for the aircrew. You only need to declare the dry ice when shipping the item. As another option, if the meat processing guy can freeze the meat before shipping and then if it goes 2 day air (not gnd) it will still be cold when it gets there. We do this annually. Good luck [/QUOTE]
