Frequently asked questions
What's the cheapest way to ship a gift from New York to Dubai?

Can I ship fragile or sentimental gifts?
Yes — that's the biggest advantage of hand-carried delivery. Gifts travel in a real person's bag, not on a sorting belt. You can chat with the traveler about packaging before drop-off.
How long will the gift take to arrive in Dubai?
The flight is around 13 hours. Most gifts land within 1–5 days from pickup to delivery.
Is it safe to ship an expensive gift with a stranger?
