Apparently air-freighting a coffin plus corpse can cost up to $10,000. Debbie Wolowitz would have been towards the top end of this scale - taking a very large morbidly obese corpse (literally "morbid") practically as far as you can go in the USA, from Florida to California. Lots of documentation and red-tape, too: add on costs of certtifying death, documentation to accompany the corpse, et c. But cremation plus airfreighting of cremated remains is apparently only about $1,000.

Having said that, maybe Howard should have forked out for "Repatriation of Remains Insurance".....
