How safe and reliable is it to transport my guitar on an airplane?
marionetteskies asked:
I will be moving cross-country and I have an acoustic guitar with a hardshell case. I know that I’m allowed check it as baggage at the airport, but will my guitar be in one piece when I get to my destination? I don’t trust the TSA and/or the baggage handlers with my acoustic! Help!

How would you pack a guitar for a plane?
justlikeme asked:
A lot of people say they had no problem flying with guitars but I’ve read somewhere that Delta has a strict policy of no-instruments. So how would I pack my acoustic guitar for checkin? What case should I put it in? I definitely know I have to wrap it but what other precautions do I have to follow?

How to pack a guitar for the best protection with a hard case only when traveling?
David asked:
I know putting the whole case in a guitar box works the best, but wouldn’t it cost to check in a guitar box? I mean, isn’t it too big to be counted as a free luggage? So, how can I pack a guitar with only the hard case for the best protection? What can I do to the exterior of the case? Also, if I were to bring the guitar on board, is it okay to do that with the guitar in a hard case?
