I purchased an iPad Air 16GB. Is this container going to protect it in my carryon luggage?

Case is made out of very hard plastic with softer material surrounding it. The entire iPad is protected all around and front to back.

There isn't any real direct protection for the screen if something was to press into it. But this case is SUPER SOLID. You won't be disappointed for the price!

Actually I will know by this Monday night. I am traveling myself, I am sure it will be fine, I am going to put my I pad Air in my suitcase at the bottom, actually I will put some clothes then my I pad Air then more clothes it should be, I am just trying to protect my I Pad a little more. It is a short flight about two hours and it should be fine, but I guess I will find out Monday night.

I use the Beetle Defense case daily for work and play and I carry a technicians tool bag around with my ipad inside. It does get banged around and dropped without any damage to my ipad at all. I've even accidentally dropped my ipad on the conrete and removed the ipad from the case when I got home that evening and there was no damage at all. I'm sure it'll be just fine in your carryon.

Your iPad with the "Smart" cover will easily fit in this case with room to spare. It will not be a snug fit as it is for the AirBook.

Its secure. there is a spring loaded tab that holds it in. you would have to bang it real hard to get it to fall out. If the airplane or train lurches that hard, your iPad is the least of your problems.

All I can say is that it is more sturdy than some cases I know are TSA approved, so it SHOULD be, but the TSA is sometimes hard to satisfy and can be fickle. They may not accept it because it uses a combo rather than a key. I'd contact the airline or TSA directly if you have any doubt.

NO. It is a soft sided case with little support. I lined mins with FOAM and a rayon lining to make it more shock resistant, but it is not able to withstand luggage handlers. You would need some sort of hard case with a good, form fitting lining. Check if the keyboard manufacturer makes a specific case.This case is excellent for home storage and "light" moving between local gigs when handled by someone who cares about the instrument.

If properly secured in bag and zipped up its a high probability your Mac will be protected. My opinion only but it's a darn solid bag

No! great look as far as a cover goes. I love that it hold my personal cards and cash. however i put it in my camera bag as i was boarding a plan and it did not protect it some how i cracked the screen on my iPad. not exactly sure but i pulled it back out to use and it had a crack down the middle of the screen

Not sure, since I haven't tried to fit an iPad or something like that in my bag. But I bet it would. This is a great bag; I highly recommend it to you.

I've used it several times as a carry on without any problems. Only once was I asked to check it right before I walked on the plane but only because the storage bins were all full. Flying out again in two weeks so I'm curious to see anything has changed as of dec 2nd.

Suggest you get a ruggedized case and get a bright color so you can see it quickly at luggage pickup. I have one and it also allows for two TSA approved locks. However, you have to carry your batteries with your carry ons. If you wrap them in saran wrap and put them in a lipo safety charging bag, you shouldn't have any TSA problmes.

I would not recommend the case for air travel; a look could not be put on it. But I would recommend the case in general otherwise.

yes it is sealed but over 3 oz. So it this is a carry on, you wont be able to take it.

Yes. I have a 13" MacBook Air and my iPad in the various padded compartments. Wonderful product.

That would be great as the plastic will hold stuff together well; however, the TSA agents may have to rip it off for inspection. In fact, that may be a "Red Flag" for them to inspect your nicely wrapped luggage...

I don't think it's really meant for flights. You will probably want something with metal edges and verticies; an ATA case.This case is great for gigs and packing your van up tight and neat.

No. The Air is smaller than the iPad3 (which I have btw) & since this case snaps into place to function it would be of no use trying to protect an Air.
