Any experience with getting a steel in a Wheel-Z type SKB case on board as carry on?
Any tips? I`ve checked it in usually but I was just wondering if....

Olli, would say no chance on Euro Airlines, particularly budget ones,where cabin baggage size is strictly limited, both by weight and size.Can't comment on US ones as I have seen some ridiculous size of bags being carried on there.You can always ask for gate check in for guitar, then ask agent at gate if cabin staff could allow it on ,maybe in wardrobe in bigger aircraft .

No chance in this neck of the woods either Oli - I always check mine in the luggage compartment - never had an issue with damage.

I get the stews to put it in the coat closet in the front of the cabin.
