I second Bernhard's suggestions. Find a Styrofoam container that's just
big enough for your plates. Pad the gaps left by the short sides of the
trays with paper towels, add tools, wands, tubes with cryo protectant,
cover slips etc, and you're ready to walk over to your local synchrotron.

I use with great success the thick-walled, dense
Styrofoam shipping containers in which the cooled stuff
from Qiagen, Biorad etc comes (your biology
department will have many of those).
A few cold packs of proper incubation temperature
added, they lasted for 5-6 hr car/air trips easily.
Warning on airport issue: The leaded plastic curtain
hanging down in front of the X-ray machine turns the
boxes over when they are put into trays on the belt.....
