Send a parcel from Lyon to Abidjan
The Ivorian community of Lyon and its region no longer needs to go through Paris: travellers connect Lyon directly to Abidjan, and your parcel rides in their suitcase.
How it works
Describe your parcel in the app: weight, contents, photos. Verified travellers leaving from Lyon (or Paris if you want more options) offer their price. Once accepted, you hand over the parcel in person and every step is tracked all the way to Abidjan.
What it costs
Each traveller advertises their price per kilo; for parcels of a few kilos it is often better value than a classic carrier, and you know exactly who is carrying. The service commission is shown before you confirm.
How long it takes
Allow about 6.5 hours for a direct Lyon–Abidjan flight. The parcel arrives with the traveller: the date is known at booking time, with no vague multi-week window.
Tracking and safety
Mandatory identity check, card payment held until the recipient confirms, time-stamped and geolocated scans. If something goes wrong, you have 15 days to open a dispute, settled within 72 business hours on evidence.
Frequently asked questions about this corridor
Are there often travellers between Lyon and Abidjan?
Lyon–Abidjan is one of Yadony's launch corridors. If no traveller departs from Lyon on your dates, the app also shows departures from Paris to Abidjan to widen the choice.
What can I send to Abidjan?
Anything legal and declared: clothes, non-regulated medicines, non-official documents, everyday products. Prohibited items include drugs, weapons, counterfeits, live animals and identity documents. The traveller sees your full declaration before accepting.
How is the payment protected?
By card, you are charged when the traveller accepts, but the money stays held on the platform: the traveller is only paid after delivery is confirmed, with the 6-digit code you pass on to the recipient. If the shipment is cancelled before handover, you get a full refund.
