Rental Boards
As of recently one item of surfing equipment is accepted as baggage for $175 (for travel within the United States, U.S. Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico) and $300 (for travel outside the United States, U.S. Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico).
I called the Delta customer service rep to ask if that was a typo (mistake) and she said no. So, “Two boards would be $1,200 round trip?” I asked. She answered “Yes, that is correct.”
Here’s a petition going around:
Fight Airline Surfboard Charges Sick of paying airline surcharges for your board? Join the Surfboard Airline Petition http://www.surfers-against-airline-fees.com/ to speak out against airline carriers that have banned surfboards.
In the mean time I have expanded my rental inventory by purchasing 28 epoxy surfboards from Global Surf Industries. They range from 6’0 to 8’7”. These boards are designed for performance as well as durability.
