No kidding it is probably cheaper to go someplace and buy one or rent one then risk having your vintage guitar worth thousands on an airline. I watched them loading luggage into the plane out my window seat. I saw a guy take someones guitar in a case and heave it onto the concrete while taking it off the truck. Then someone else tossed in on the conveyor belt to go into the plane. You know he did that on purpose cause he had this stupid grin on his face. Nice huh .. Me I will never bring it ever. I will buy a throw away or rent one from a music shop. There are just people out there with mean spirits and it is very sad that they think it is funny
