Why send a parcel Almaty — Aktobe with a traveler
Almaty is the country’s largest city and its business centre, at the foot of the Trans-Ili Alatau mountains. Aktobe is the largest city in the west of the country, the industrial centre of Aktobe Region near the border with Russia. The cities are roughly 1,690 km apart in a straight line: the overland trip takes a day or more, so sending a parcel with someone who is flying is the fastest option.
From Almaty people usually send what is easier to buy or pick up there: orders from local shops, original documents from offices and universities, gifts and belongings left with family. In Aktobe parcels go to employees of industrial and oil companies, students and families.

What to put in the parcel and what to leave at home
Within the country there is no customs, but the airline’s rules still apply: liquids and aerosols in cabin baggage are limited, as are lithium batteries, and medicines are best sent in their packaging with the leaflet. Cash, valuables and prohibited substances are never sent with a traveler.
Upload photos and videos of the contents and packaging to JetJoin so the traveler knows what they are carrying before the meetup. Pack so the parcel can be opened at screening and closed again, and put documents in a stiff folder.
