Having lived with the joy of flying with a musical instrument, I pass along some information on ways to make the experience go better to anyone who is about to embark on a plane. Several other people add their experiences to the conversation.
If you are going to fly, I'd suggest you get a copy of the AFM letter — it may not help with getting past the security screeners, but, at the minimum, it probably won't hurt. The airlines are a different story, though.
