After having a bit of a look on Lonely Planet Thorn Tree, thought I'd ask you lot as well: does anyone have information about cargo companies with air couriers?

Already have the info for British Airways Travel Shop (tel. +44 (0)870 606 1133), but wondered if anyone had tips for couriers going out of Germany, especially for NZ flights, especially if you've already done so yourself.

Air couriers are folk that accompany documents and parcels on flights, entirely legally and the courier is not responsible for the contents of the documents or parcel, you're just the bum on the seat. In exchange for that heavily subsidised flight, you give up most or all of your baggage allowance.

Any tips gratefully received.
