Important for airfreight customers (located outside Europe)<\/strong><\/p>\n

 When you are located outside Europe, we use air transportation to ship the flowers to you. You have to pick the shipment up from your closest airport.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Before you put the order through<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let us know when you want to start ordering, so we can arrange a flight. If the flight has been arranged, it\u2019s important for you to make the order 2-3 days in advance. <\/p>\n

For example, if the departure of the flight is on Friday, put the order through on Wednesday evening. This way we can collect, pack and send on Thursday for the Friday flight.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

KG Price and screening costs<\/strong><\/p>\n

The prices for shipping have to do with kilograms. When we order a flight, the airline will tell us the kg price. Mostly this will be between €2.50-€4.50\/kg depending on the place of destination. KG prices for a destination can also be changed over time. <\/p>\n

Then there are also screening\/handling costs of the shipment. This is always around €110 on every shipment, no matter how small or big the shipment is. You can understand that it\u2019s more price efficient to do bigger shipments.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Discount<\/strong><\/p>\n

In general, the airline does not give a discount on the kg price, but in our experience, they sometimes give a better price if you make reservations for weekly shipments in advance. If you want to do weekly shipments for a longer period of time, let us know and we can try to get a better price.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The calculation for shipping charges<\/strong><\/p>\n

So we now know how the KG price works, but how do you calculate your total price for shipping? Well, you can\u2019t do that exactly on beforehand. In our experience, around €10-€15 of flowers weights around 1KG. So if you buy for €1000-€1500 flowers, it would be around 100KG.<\/p>\n

If, for example, the KG price is €2.50, the calculation would be:<\/p>\n

100KG*2.5 = €250<\/p>\n

+ €110 for screening\/handling<\/p>\n

= €360 <\/p>\n

So in this example, the total shipping price for €1000-€1500 flowers<\/strong> is €360<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
