I would say no. If you are checking your guitar spend the money on a hard shell case if you are carrying it on the plane with you, maybe.

Its a deluxe case... Offers good protection. Maybe it works if you travel with you on the airplane. Dont leave in the regular badge checkin. Ask in the airline

Absolutely. Have taken on many flights and it just barely fits within airline regulations, albeit only in the softcase that comes with it. If they give you a hard time, just insist that they measure it or just insist period. It is a musical instrument that shouldn't be stored in the belly of the plane (though it is sturdy enough I think it would survive just fine as long as it doesn't get crushed by shifting luggage) and it fits easily in the overhead compartments anyway. Like I said, I never had any problem and I've taken it even on international flights. No biggie.

I am adult and not a beginner and I use it as a travel guitar. If this is your only guitar, I recommend a full-size guitar. But if you want something small to knock around with, travel or practice with when you are away from home, it's a good choice.

I own A Sonoran-Bucket hybrid that fits in the case. I only use it for home storage, not for the road. Best thing to do is check the dimensions of the case and compare them to the dimensions of the guitar (especially length, width and depth). I hope this helps.

I am late answering this, but Yes. I have a Taylor guitar and. Martin backpacker. I bought this for my granddaughter but would love to have one to travel. It isn't a Martin or Taylor but it would be great to practice on

The body of the case is pretty dense and not very flexible, so I think this would not be a bad choice for transporting a guitar while riding a bike. The greatest challenge I foresee is that the bottom of the case may extend beyond the seat of your bike, so you may have to ride hunched over to keep the guitar off of your rear wheel.

I have a Stratocaster and there's definitely plenty of extra room in this bag. I think the Acoustic Strat will fit, but it will be a bit snug. I've got a Yamaha acoustic/electric that fits in it ... and the Acoustic Strat wouldn't be any wider than that guitar, so you should be good.

I have two different skb cases. One with & 1 without lock. The one with lock appears to be & if I recall the one guaranteed to be able to go in cargo. I've never the opportunity to travel with this case, but I think it's sturdy enough to handle it. The big concern are the cargo inspectors who may open your case & handle your guitar. Do you allow strangers who do not appreciate your guitar to handle it. The case is fine, it will handle it. You might be better off paying ups the $25 cargo to ship it. Check it out.

The guitar will fit in the SKB-000 with about a half-inch room on the body length and about a quarter inch to spare from side to side on the lower bout. The depth should be almost perfect.

This case was brought to transport the keyboard for short distance gigs. We have an anvil case for long hauls. Its a gig bag. Light weight with wheels. I do not that I would use it for airplane flight.

I think I'd invest in a case made for airplane travel (plastic formed). This case is great for gigging and such, but I'd be concerned for airline travel, as the wood bracing the case would not hold up well under being thrown around, or being on the bottom of a stack of luggage.

I am not sure about flying but it worked great for the band trip which was on buses. Lots of High School Students. I do know that the case was under the bus with the rest of the instruments. He also loved using it to transport the horn back and forth to school and concerts.

Yes, it fits very well. Actually I bought it because we needed to transport it by plane and it protected very well the guitar

Well, overhead it would be fine...it's a rigid/strong guitar, but the bag isn't that thick. I think it would be ok getting jostled and tossed but throw a big hard suitcase on it and I think it's goodbye little Martin! Like that other person said, bubble wrap it and it may be good to go.

I just spoke to Virgin America about an upcoming flight and their carry on size limit is a total of 50". That will barely fit a violin, much less a case (I would guess our case is a total of 65 to 70"). Rep told me it would have to go in checked luggage. The FAA regulation says the airline must allow it to go on board IF there is room in the overhead compartment AND it meets the airline's size requirements. Looking for Plan B.

For me, it's an inexpensive travel uke. I throw this in my bag when I go on trips. For this purpose, it does its job. If this is your main uke, I would look elsewhere.
