I anticipate a demand for small 'travelutes' :o) Bill From: Edward Mast <[email protected]> To: Nancy Carlin <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Sent: Friday, 10 February 2012, 1:10 Subject: [LUTE] Re: [mplpost] Musicians can now fly in friendlier skies This is very good news indeed! I'm assuming my 7 course lute in a Kingham case will fit in overhead for most airplanes, but it would be nice to know before flying which specific airplanes offer the most roomy overheads. Is this information available? I assume that when booking flights, the type of airplane in service can be known.
