Just wondering if anyone has any airline travel experiences(with their tuba) to share... tuba sent to the wrong place, tuba damaged(big risk), or anything similar? More specifically, does anyone have any tips for airline travel with the tuba? The only way I feel comfortable is if the tuba is in it's gigbag in the seat next to me, but as musicians, that's not something we can always afford. I've heard horror stories(and had personal experiences) of tubas being smashed up going through large airports, many without even leaving the hard case. Any input is appreciated, thanks.

-A.
