[QUOTE="calling4life, post: 2299742, member: 48454"] What do airlines allow you to fly with though? For example, can't you bring meat to fish freezing places in Alaska, where they essentially create a Styrofoam cooler for all your meat on the spot, and then fly that home with you? Isn't this a method people use. So could you have that 200lbs frozen in a cooler and fly it back? Maybe as two 100 lb coolers? $300... for two "bags" or are there limits here Would actually seem very reasonable to me given I buy cheap roasts and cut my own steaks from them at the store, and the meat is still $6/lb. At $300 to fly the 200lbs of meat back with you that would be $1.50/lb. Seems like a great deal. Are things done like that? Or do you really have to ship it back? I like this discussion and would love it completely fleshed out. I've had meat shipped to me from small farms, like Wagyu beef, they generally ship it in a Styrofoam cooler and it has to be overnight or 2nd day air. Cost for 200lbs would have the potential to be breathtaking... Hoping to do Alaska trips in the future so I'm hoping this thread bears fruit. [/QUOTE]
