[QUOTE="Browncoat, post: 308580, member: 1061"] Your two best bets when it comes to this stuff is to: 1) Check with the airports you will be visiting 2) Definitely check the policies of the individual airlines you will be flying Every single airline has a detailed web page dedicated to size/weight/etc restrictions on luggage. In my experience, it can take quite a bit of digging, but it's there. Also in my experience, it's best to check your camera gear as luggage and not carry-on. You won't need any of it on the plane. I don't know if you've ever seen videos on how baggage is handled, but it should suffice to say that you want to get a good [B]hard-shell[/B] case with plenty of foam lining on the inside to protect your gear. The other (and even better) option is to get some cases designed for photography travel.
