[quote=Anonymous]The flowers I bought from Giant yesterday I also had shipped in, though from Colombia not Holland. They didn't charter a plane for little old me though, and Oprah likely didn't either. The flower distributors in the US use shipping brokers in the source country that find the cheapest space on passenger and cargo planes that _already_ fly those routes. In the flower industry, the exception is for big holidays like mother's day, when the demand is so great that there's just not enough existing cargo space. In those cases, they do charter cargo planes from the source country to major US distribution points. Now I feel rich like Oprah. Not only did I have my flowers flown in, but the imported cheese I also bought from Giant was flown in. Aren't I living the fancy life![/quote]
