4 Reasons Why You Should Never Fly With Your Golf Clubs
Golf trips are fun.
Flying with your clubs isn’t.
Between getting to the airport, boarding your flight and making sure you didn’t forget anything, you’ve got enough on your mind. Why add to that by worrying about your golf clubs?
With ShipSticks, you don’t have to worry about anything except safely getting to your destination. All you have to do is schedule your pickup, fill out a shipping form and leave the rest to us. We’ll make your travel experience better by providing you with a number of benefits that you simply can’t get by flying with your clubs, including:
Can you picture a worse scenario than getting off your plane, going to the baggage claim and not seeing your golf bag come around on the conveyor? An estimated 26 million baggage items are lost by airlines every year and if you’re on a golf trip, lost clubs are an absolute nightmare.
Reason #1. Added Assurance
With ShipSticks you don’t have to worry about your clubs getting lost by the airline. We pick them up and we ship them out. After you’re clubs leave the house, you don’t even have to think about them again until they’re at the front desk of your hotel.
Golf clubs aren’t fragile but they’re certainly not made to be tossed around. Your driver and fairway woods in particular, are highly susceptible to dings and dents caused by rough handling. A hardcase for your clubs can add some protection but it doesn’t guarantee anything. Most airlines assure you that baggage handlers are taking good care of your clubs but when they’re trying to get a plane fully loaded in 15 minutes, that doesn’t leave a lot of time to pack things in nicely.
In addition, most airlines won’t even cover your equipment in the event that it gets damaged. ShipSticks offers $1,000 of baseline insurance and even allows you to insure up to $3,500 if you want. Thousands of people every year hand their clubs off at the baggage desk in perfect condition only to find them dinged up when they arrive at their destination. Don’t be one of those people. Ship your clubs with ShipSticks.
Airline tickets are expensive enough. The last thing you need is to have to fork over an extra $120 dollars to carry your clubs with you. Sure, shipping your clubs costs money too but unlike an airline we don’t require you to lug them with you everywhere you go. In fact, you can get your clubs from New York to LA for just $59.99, and with $200 consequential insurance for delayed shipments, you can be sure you’re getting your money’s worth.
Reason #2. No Damage To Equipment
Reason #3. Insurance
Reason #4. No Added Baggage Costs
