Re: [HG] Flying NOW

I suspect that it will all depend on destination; if you are traveling between countries that do not get involved in illegal wars [Hungary, Sweden, NZ] there will be less problem than if you are traveling between countries  whose foreign policy pisses people off  {US and UK}.

Cecilia,

 

When my friend Paul flew to Sweden last month he took his small guitar gurdy on as hand luggage in a soft case.....(packed it well in case it was taken off him and put in the hold) They just x-rayed it and let him on fine. Another friend just flew over from NZ with a harp in a soft case....brave woman! Had lots of fragile stickers on....dont know if that helps!

Hi,

I fly from the UK to Hungary tomorrow, and I think it was a wise decision
after all to buy a proper flight case. I had read the HG flying guide
(available from http://www.hurdygurdy.com/info/flying.htm) and it took me
months to decide the best option. My insurance company sticks to the hard
case, otherwise I would've bought that wonderfully padded softcase one guy
sells in the UK. Now, with all these onboard restrictions since the
terrorist threat I reckon one has no choice but let it go as luggage. I
don't think they will enter with much argument with us. Does anybody else
have very recent experience in this? I am still around today, so please
answer, if yes...
