[HANASHIR:10526] Re: amazing flying guitars

[Shira Kline <shirlalala...>]

Callie, I fly all the time with my guitar and I always always always carry it on
with me.   When they give me trouble I just insist, and honestly that hasn't
changed a bit since new tighter security and restrictions.   I've flown several
times with it since the new restrictions and it hasn't been a problem at all.
Just carry it on with you and put it in the over head or put it in the first
class coat check.  It is your precious instrument and you are the only one who
can ensure it a safe flight, so I wouldn't even consider checking it an option!
N'siah Tovah, have a gool journey!
