Can I take the case as a carry-on on an airplane or do I have to check it?

Hello,This should be handy enough to carry, however, I would recommend you check with the air carrier to confirm that they would allow it and it's within size limitations for carry-on items.

You should be able to carry it on most airplanes but you should always check with your carrier first. It is rugged enough to check as checked package for sure. Just invest in a lock.

I have taken it as a carry-on several times... The problem comes if you are taking another carry-on besides the case, at least in American Airlines they only allow one carry-on and a personal item (briefcase, purse, backpack etc) and the case doesn't count as a personal item...

Follow the advice of the others and check with your air carrier. These regulations change without notice.

I was able to carry on Virgin America plus a personal item and Delta Airlines as I flew from Florida to Alaska last week.

By law, you are able to carry it on. I wouldn't recommend checking a guitar.

Question for the 2 people who answered, "Yes": Yes it can be taken on flights as a check in or Yes it has prohibited items per TSA?

I've taken it on an airplane many times as a personal item. No questions asked. Just don't take a purse. Put the purse IN the backpack. In other words, you can have a carry on AND this backpack, no problems :-)

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.

I saw the question again. No , not in a carry on suitcase but in the Squier case you may be allowed to fit it on .

I don't think so unless it is a very large piece of luggage. I would box it up and either ship it or see if you can take it on the plane.

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.

While I personally haven't used it as carry on, it should work fine. Check out these customer reviews:1510 Carry On Case (without foam)Good luck,Farmerkid

Nop... you cant but it is not a problem at all... the main problem with this case (although I love it) is that it is rally hard to pack.Good luck

if you fly with it, don't check it, just carry on, both spirit air and southwest have allowed me to use this as a carry on, i tell them its an instrument and they are fine with it

It is probably checkable but soft bag would not protect it. Maybe the airline would store it in the front of airplane like they do strollers! It would b worth asking!

Theoretically yes, but that's up to the individual airlines. You really need to check with the airline in question, and even then it's up to the flight attendants when you get on the plane, there are no guarantees that you'll be allowed to treat it as a carry-on. That's one of the reasons I bought this guitar, but the airlines have tightened up their regulations.

you won't be able to carry it in a plane. you have to check it in, wrapped of coarse

you can take the bag on the plane as a carry on the problem with that is if somebody stuffs their carry on into the same compartment, you may risk damaging your unit.

Don't see why you couldn't check it in with baggage but not a chance as carry on.

Indeed you can, only if it is checked at the gate. You will be able to access it at the gate and pick it up wen leaving the aircraft. I would double check with the individual airline
