I prefer an extra seat for the baby. But that can be expensive. Friend of mine uses his normal lute case, covered in bubble wrap. The heavy duty variety, two layers. Makes it into a sort of case, with the handle sticking out, and lid with sello tape, so he can re-use it on the way back. Of course deliver by hand with odd size/fragile luggage. Of course be there in person to pick it up from the odd size/fragile luggage conveyor belt. At Schiphol this belt end in nothing, so your lute will be pushed from the belt by the luggage coming after it. A drop of about 1 or 1,5 meters.
My new lute came unaccompanied from Canada in case in cardboard in bubble wrap. All right.
