I recently carried this case with my Phantom onboard a flight and had no issues. The case even fit into one of those carry on baggage size checkers you may find at your local airport.

It is not TSA approved, and if they notice it they will take it. However, it is unusual enough that they might not realized what it is.

Yes, the case has one lock on the center latch. I believe it is a TSA compliant lock.

I can't say whether or not it's on a particular list of "approved cases" or not. What I can tell you is that I flew on Southwest from Portland (OR) to Phoenix (AZ) and back with my firearm in this case and had no troubles with the TSA inspection. Just be sure you have a solid lock (I recommend the cable add-on Amazon will suggest when you add this to your cart) and be sure you follow your airline's instructions for transporting your firearm.

It has to be. I took my Browning BLR and my Glock in it on Alaska Airlines from Oakland to Anchorage and it was taken the the head baggage handler and after looking at the three padlocks (keyed alike) that I had on it and the sturdy construction of the case, he didn't even ask to have it opened. Although the airline regs say to keep your ammo in factory boxes, plastic boxes made for ammo are ok too.

I don't know for sure but I'll have to agree with the rest, NO. However if your purpose is for firearms on a flight,as long as you have the two keys on your person, the TSA agent has a master, that's why they're TSA approved.

My one concern with checking it would be the large number of batteries in the case. If the TSA doesn't have any issue with that, you should be good to go!

I'm no TSA agent but if it's sealed and in the box I wouldn't see why not. Steve~

So I have never been on a plane but I'm assuming there might be a far amount of banging around with the case and questionable actions with it. I would trust it. I had my $800 Taylor in mine and it fell out of the bed of my truck on to the highway and might have got it, when I went back and got it the case was scuffed up which is what was to be expected but my guitar didn't have a single scratch and the case was still in fair condition. So I would say yes to airplane travel. Sorry about the bird walk

It does meet TSA requirements. I've been to 4 airports domestically and haven't had any issues. This is a great bag, it fits a lot of items.

They claim 'airline approved'. It has 2 separate locations for locks, but hard to know without asking the TSA directly.

I doubt you can get by security with it since it's so big, but it's built so well checking isn't an issue. I've taken my guitar on several flights with no problem. One unlisted perk to this case is that it looks *very* similar to traveling gun cases. In fact, multiple TSA reps thought it was a gun case. The reason this matters is that they may treat guitars like crap, but it turns out many of the agents have an affinity for guns/recreational shooting, so they actually treat cases that may be gun cases with extra care.

Case is hard-shelled but most likely not crush tested like the Hiscox cases. If one is not able to hand carry on the flight, I would recommend shipping ahead. I have this for a Baby Taylor and carry on only. Good luck.

The case does have a lock built in but it is probably not TSA approved. You would have to add a TSA approved locking device of some kind.

From what I have read it is. From experiance if your taking it as a carry on it needs to fit under your seat. I dont know what the guidlines are otherwise. But like I said it did say it was airline approved and that is why one of the reasons I got one just in case.

It is if it's locked. The holes for locks are really small though, so mostly just for show, but it'll keep TSA happy.
