Re: [GSAS-Member] Heat Pack & Shipping Carton

Search both ebay and aquabid for 40 or 60 hour UniHeat heat packs.  On
ebay, you can get 5 of the 60 hour packs shipped for about ~$15 and 25
for ~$50.

I've done it for fish shipment during the winter months and it works o.k. and is as fast as you can hope to get. You want an airline that travels nonstop to the airport nearest the recepient - I've used Alaska out here and used to use Continental in NJ. Stopovers are risky - think fish styros sitting on the tarmac someplace cold. It won't be cheap though.
