However, some items may be considered as oversized or overweight items. As such, charges may apply. Please visit the Austrian Airlines website for more information.

Dependable and easy

I have used My Baggage several times and each time it has been hassle-free and good value. At the heart of this is the excellent service from DHL, who are the courier firm MB use. I use DHL Express weekly for work and they are highly reliable and easy to communicate with incase of any problems. My Baggage provides a user friendly way for personal use of the DHL service, without much of a mark-up. Highly recommend.

The service is fast and straightforward. The only downside is that the carrier wasn't able to pick up the item at the designated place, which cause me extra time to deliver to the nearby DHL service point.

I received my box the next day!

I received my box the next day!! Just make sure to be 100% accurate on dimensions, weight, both addresses and the interesting weird part is they want you to leave the box downstairs, somewhere accessible and my sis lives in a sketchy part of brooklyn so it could've been stolen but it was fine. You're not allowed to change the address or contact info after submitting it but it all went through and I got it the very next day here in London. I had a problem with a form but Mark the customer representative was so quick to respond and helped me. Yay now I have the rest of my stuff finally in my new home! I would use them again.
