The planets lined up on that deal!
Yes they did, even though it was a stressful run at the end.
So, this was the finally deal, even though the flight was delayed, the check in times were the same, so on bag check, we were late. I had paid for one checked bag, the 920 case. I wanted to pay for the second box, the TV, but they wanted me to use a debit card, which for what ever reason wouldn't work. They don't accept credit cards. So as the clock was ticking, the guy ran to his boss, boss said just print a label and send it. So it was a free shipment.
However, I had to run the whole length of Gatwick with my back pack and carry on bag, in jeans and hiking shoes!, ended up missing the terminal turn off and went to far, then had to double back. I was a sweaty gooey mess when I got to the gate. I was sweating profusely for 20 minutes. AND THEN, the flight was delayed for an hour and a half!
Small price to pay for a free shipment! Saved $35. BTW, it only costs $35 to ship a box through the airline. Not bad!
