Good day Gabby,

A very big THANK YOU for your kind and helpful assistance in sending off our excess baggage. In a country where competent, friendly, efficient and cost effective service delivery had become a rarity, we were very impressed with what we experienced at Airline Express Products. May you and your company go from strength to strength.

All of the very best to you.

Dear Gabriela,

I hope this email finds you well and having a great week.

Gabriela I just wanted to share some feedback that we received from Cindy and Douglas Lacey recently. They used U-Bags for their excess luggage whilst in South Africa.

U-Bag – and in particular Gabriela – deserve kudos for jobs extremely well done. Our luggage was well taken care of while we were at the safari camps. And after experiencing some of the smaller flights between locales in Africa, we decided that it would be wise to have the luggage transported once again from Tsala to the Intercontinental Hotel – instead of trying to get it on the sardine can that Mango Airlines was flying (the plane was nice, but it was over-filled) from George to Johannesburg. Once again, this time on short notice and for an out of the way route, U-Bag came through with flying colors. The driver picked our baggage up Saturday and drove the 16 hours to Johannesburg to get it to the airport hotel before we arrived on our plane. It was a true life-saver for us.

Thanking you so much for the wonderful service you are providing for our guests and for always excelling at everything in every way, we really do appreciate it.

Hope you have a wonderful day further.

Kind Regards

Hi there

I just wanted to give you a huge thank you for assisting with moving my personals over to the UK from SA.

Dear Justus

I would like to bring to your attention the great service that I had received from U bag and in particular the phenomenal Gabriela Miguel last week

Gabriella managed to get my clients baggage collected from her hotel in Barcelona with only an afternoons notice. I am aware that it usually takes up to 3 days to arrange a collection.

Due to the short notice everyone else was panicking as to whether the job would get done but Gabriela was calm and professional as she guided me (a first time user of U Bag) through the procedures.

We managed to get the clients baggage back to South Africa at a fraction of the cost. I have been singing U Bags praises to everyone I come across and hope I will have the pleasure of dealing with U Bag again in the future

Yours sincerely,

I recently sent a package to Australia that was too long to post. U-Bag patiently answered all my queries while I made up my mind how to send it. Their quote was much lower than a courier and several removal companies I approached and the box is sent by air rather than ship. Once the package was in U-Bag's hands things happened very quickly and I was kept fully informed of where the package was and how to collect it at its destination. Thanks U-Bag for great service.

Hi Michael,

Just to let you know I successfully collected my bags on Friday afternoon, after they landed that morning. I only had to pay approx ZAR 650 for the handling fee and customs charge, so was very happy..

Many thanks for all your help and your quick turn around in getting my things safely here. I will definitely recommend you and Ubag.

Much appreciated,

Dear Justus and team,

A super big thank you for the amazing service over the weekend and the week leading up to Polly's departure. As you know, Polly was found near death, with her legs tied together in the Kliprivier about 2 months ago. She was rescued by CLAW (Community Led Animal Welfare), whom have worked hard at rehabilitating her and getting her back to good health. 

Pier Rush, a good friend of mine, based in Cape Town fell in love and had been following her story from the very beginning almost immediately having decided to adopt her. We've had quite a run around to try and get her to Cape Town, until I remembered that U Bag had an air division for domestic animals. From the word go, the service we've received from yourselves has been outstanding! 

Thank you so much for your patience and expertise. It really has been a breeze dealing with yourselves and most importantly, Polly arrived safely in Cape Town at her forever home safe and sound...

I will definitely be in touch for any other dogs, we may need to fly and I will be singing your praises far and wide!!!

Many sincere thanks,

I just wanted to let you know that today I fetched my box you sent out to Auckland NZ! The box looked like you had just sent it, as it was in perfect condition.

So many thanks to you and to U-BAG for the excellent service you have provided to me. 

I will highly recommend you. 

It is nice that with so many businesses being criticized in South Africa you have shown that great service is still available.

Good morning Gabriela,

I wanted to thank your for the excellent service from U-Bag. My excess luggage was delivered this morning, literally 5 days after my departure.

Good day

I would like to compliment you on a wonderful very helpful Gabriela Miguel. I was in a predicament as my son was finishing at Rhodes University and he had four years of goods that he had to bring home and as he was flying it was impossible. My daughter works for a travel agency told me about U-Bag. I sent the email on the website and it was minutes and Gabriela contacted me. From then on we have been liasing with regards the bags to Johannesburg. She has been extremely helpful and I appreciate all her help as unfortunately in this country service is a bad word there is no such thing as good service.

I feel I wanted to bring this to your attention as people always complain and never gives compliments and Gabriela is really an asset to your company. I have told many people about U-Bag (they were not aware of this service) and I will give them Gabriela's email address.

Once again thank you so much Gabriela and U-Bag. 

I hope you all have a very Blessed Christmas and a Prosperous 2015.

I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank You for your support in the entire process of repatriating the remains from JHB to Cairo. All the `extra` help you gave us, means alot to me and the bereaved family.

The remains has arrived safely in Cairo for which I am extremely thankful and just wish to once again thank you for everything you did.

"I contacted Ubag following horrendously expensive quotes from anyone else. At the point where I was going to give in and pay an exorbitant amount I found Ubag. They were extremely quick to give me a quote, their customer service is top-class and the level of professionalism throughout the company is exceptional!

I sent my package the same day as my flight. It landed in Cyprus 1 week later with no issues whatsoever.

Extremely smooth process and I would recommend them ANY DAY over anyone else for sending larger consignments anywhere.

Thank you again for the excellent service

Good day Justus,

You don’t know me, but I’m a very satisfied customer & would like to compliment you on the efficiency, helpfulness & friendliness of your staff, particularly one Gabriela Miguel. We were planning on relocating to Calgary, Canada (where I am mailing from), to join my youngest daughter & family to share time which has been lost over the past 13 years. This was a major decision, as it meant selling up all our worldly possessions in Cape Town. However, there were various trinkets & memorabilia which we felt strongly about taking with us & with this in mind, we contacted your firm to enquire as to how best & most economically to achieve this. We were fortunate to be referred to Gabriela, whom I found, not only to be extremely knowledgable, but also sympathetic to our cause & prepared to go the extra mile to make our transition as pleasant, cost effective & stress free as possible. I was on the blower to her on numerous occasions with queries & questions & she always had the time of day to answer & advise as if I was the most important person in the world. I would like to commend Gabriela for her thoughtfulness, professional attitude & assistance – if all service providers had people of this calibre in their employ, life would be that much more pleasant for all concerned. Please thank her for us & congratulate her on her exemplary performance. Good luck to you and your Company for the future & enjoy a blessed Christmas.

Dear Gaby,

Sorry to have taken so long to write. Our suitcase arrived as we did, and the door to door delivery was excellent. The fact that your people secured it with straps was fantastic and everything arrived in one piece. Gaby, we could not have asked for better service, for which we thank you very much indeed. We will certainly be recommending you to friends who are planning similar transfers to the UK. 

Kindest regards,

I received my bags at 2pm today. I would like to thank both you and John for a seamless stress free transportation of my bags from Dublin to Cape Town!

You have been wonderful, Sean, answering my mails promptly and keeping me in the loop. John, as always it is a pleasure dealing with Emerald freight where everything ran smoothly, my bags were picked up promptly and sent efficiently back to Cape Town with little fuss and no problems!

Thank you again and I will be in touch next year in May when I fly back to Ireland, and the whole process starts all over again!

Renier & Hoon ...

I want to thank you for helping arrange handling of our excess baggage. 

The bags were waiting for us at Federal Air when we landed here in Joburg this afternoon, and it was extremely convenient.

The bags were in perfect condition, well protected with plastic wrap, and we found everything just as we left it.

Hoon ... thanks for recommending U-Bag. You were right ... this was perfect for our situation, where we wanted to leave some of our baggage behind while we went to Kruger.

Renier ... thanks for your help. This was just what we wanted, and everything was done professionally and per plan.

And ... we had a great time in Kruger. Just fantastic ...

Thanks to all,

Dear Sean,

I would like to take this opportunity to compliment you on the excellent service I have received from one of your staff members, namely, Johan Benade. 

This is the 3rd time I have used U-Bag, and I have only had good service both from U-Bag in SA and your agents locally and overseas ( London and Dublin). 

This time, from the moment I booked my bags with Johan, while I was away and now upon my return I have only had the best attention from Johan. All my emails were answered immediately and all my requests attended to with the utmost speed, efficiency and professionalism. 

Johan is indeed an asset to your company and I do hope that he receives the recognition from Management that he deserves. 

I will be returning overseas next year and will happily be using your services once again.

Thank you and best wishes,
