Looked into this for our upcoming cruise on the Silver Spirit in Nov from Rome-FLL. I liked Luggage Free the best and they were very cooperative when I called them. International rate is $5.25/lb plus a pickup charge of $50. The good thing is that they shrink wrap the luggage when they pick it up. I asked whether customs in Italy would take the wrap off and was told that there is @ a 50% chance of it. The bad thing is that they have to pick the bags up on Oct 23 for a delivery to the ship on 2 Nov. Miss Lynn doesn't like that idea. They are apparently very reliable.
