you're fine. with you or checked. nationally or internationally, i've never had the slightest problem w/ any of that stuff, and i fly with all sorts of weird combinations of instruments, usually at least two guitars. did a festival gig in France last year, walked the steel onto the plane for all the flights, put it in the overhead. no checked bags. don't give it a second thought.

on the rare off chance that someone gives you a hard time about it, charm em. i had to do that w/ the pedal steel on the first connecting flight to France. eye contact, big smile, the it's-no-problem-i-do-this-all-the time vibe (I'd never flown w/ that case before), "my beautiful queen" type stuff. she lets me walk onto the plane w/ the steel in the hard case - i get in, and the (female) singer is looking at me, just grinning shaking her head Laughing
