Would you trust this thing to transport a 24" monitor on a plane? (as a carry on, of course!)

I'd trust it with mine, but mine's replaceable and I don't care if it gets dinged up. I would bring it on to be like "Yes, I can be sure of having this monitor with me at my destination," but not necessarily expect the monitor to survive fifteen or twenty trips like that without developing some kind of problem.

yes. I use this all the time.... however, the base of a normal monitor extends out the bottom. I had to purchase a monitor that had a base that folded flat.

I don't think it would be suitable for airline travel unless it was packed in another box. It could withstand a good bit of weight on it, and maybe the abuse, but no locking feature and sturdier means of securing the top sliding parts make it risky to say the least.

The unit is quite sturdy. It holds my 24" monitor screen without any problem.

No - it would be a great carry on. You would be able to have your laptop too. Worth the $oney. I used it as a 3 day trip on Motorcycle. Great.

My experience is, Yes. I always have a carryon suitcase and this case for my Mac, etc. No problem so far.

Not knowing the weight of your monitor, it's hard to say, but assuming it's a LCD type monitor, I'd think it would be fine. An old CRT, on the other hand, might be problematic. But it's a pretty sturdy stand, IMO.

Absolutely, I do it all the time! If you're still unsure my advice is to double check the airline's carry on restrictions (since some are different dimensions), and as a rule of thumb try not to over stuff it.

I have not attempted to fly anywhere with my equipment, but if it helps anyone, I store my C11-SGT tube in this case, and the case functions like any large wheeled luggage item. In addition, be advised that this is a soft-sided case, not a hard-shell, so I would absolutely not attempt to transport a telescope tube like a piece of luggage. An optical instrument would not likely survive the trauma. If anyone has tried this already, I would be interested to hear how it went, also.

I just received mine monitor today. The cover is a foam-type black sleeve. Definitely more than just a dust sleeve. It's not a hard case, but it should be plenty to keep the screen from getting scratched in a carry on. It should also be ok in a suitcase if it's tucked between clothes. The cover isn't heavy-duty, but it's better than I expected and it's a good start until I find something else (if ever).

I'm not sure, but I think a monitor might be to heavy. The legs have to be bent somewhat for stability.

I'm pretty sure the 24" monitors will fit as I have one and it appears to have room enough for a second. I don't know about the 27" monitors though....they may FIT but their screens may hang off the edge a bit.Don't worry about the weight unless for some ungodly reason you still have crt monitors...LOL

Yes, it will hold anything up to and including 24" monitors or TVs. The problem is with size not weight.

I would think the case is strong enough to support a monitor. But keep in mind that is not what it was designed for.
1261623
Yes. I believe it will hold that weight. its very sturdy built. I think it would even hold an old style tube monitor which are very heavy.

Also, the monitor is fairly large 14.5"x20"x2" so would be a bit unwieldy to move around.

Yes, it is pretty sturdy. I doubt there is a (non CRT) monitor out there that is heavy enough that you would have to worry.
