What determines the price
For Russia, three factors matter most — in order of impact.
The route
Russia can be reached not only by air freight but also by road in our own hearse — often the more economical option. The actual route is the biggest item.
Coffin or urn
A zinc-lined repatriation coffin is heavy and needs cargo space. An urn is lighter and cheaper.
The destination
Moscow or St. Petersburg are easy to reach; a place deep in the country means a second leg in-country.
