Motorcycle Shipping: 2026 Rate Comparison & 2027 Planning Guide
Planning a motorcycle adventure in Europe, the United Kingdom, or Canada in 2027?
While we await the release of next season's airline schedules and motorcycle freight rates, we've prepared this guide using our 2026 shipping rates to help you establish a preliminary travel budget.
These rates reflect 2026 pricing for budget comparison purposes only. Actual rates vary by airline, route, motorcycle specifications, and availability. Certain Air Transat rates depend on whether the rider holds a passenger ticket with the airline.
WestJet/Cargojet Connecting Flights
Calgary is WestJet's primary transatlantic hub for our motorcycle shipping services.
Through WestJet/Cargojet interline agreements, we can coordinate motorcycle shipments between Calgary and additional Canadian airports.
These connections offer greater flexibility for riders traveling beyond Calgary, although additional freight costs and transit time may apply.
All routes and connections are subject to airline schedules and available cargo space.
Motorcycles with Sidecars & Trikes
The rates above apply to standard two-wheeled motorcycles.
Motorcycles with sidecars and three-wheeled motorcycles (trikes) require individual pricing based on dimensions, weight, and airline handling requirements.
Pricing and available shipping options for these vehicles will be evaluated separately when the applicable 2027 information becomes available.
Additional Shipping Costs
Depending on your route and destination, additional expenses may include:
-
Airport terminal handling and warehouse charges
-
Customs clearance and broker services
-
Storage fees, where applicable
-
Optional transit insurance
These costs vary by airport and are not necessarily included in the freight rates above.
When Will 2027 Routes & Rates Be Available?
We anticipate that summer 2027 motorcycle shipping routes and rates will begin becoming available around mid-to-late March 2027, subject to airline schedules and pricing releases.
The 2026 information provided here is intended for preliminary budgeting only and does not constitute a confirmed quotation or guarantee that particular routes, airlines, or prices will be available in 2027.
