I used a Pelican iM2600 Storm Case with Foam. The GPC case was to big for southwest carry-on, but would have been fine for Alaska air. Check your airline for size restrictions. also Southwest had a sign that said no LIPO batteries..... but no-one checked.
I took it to Mexico, only pulled aside by security at LAX on the way back (1 out of 4), they did a swab and I was good to go. However in Mexico I was stopped by customs and had to pay an import tax. 16% on $432. Had to show a receipt for it. $1432 less $500X2.
