great job on that !!!! I just hate the idea of checking it,,, I used t load airplanes and I know how they are treated,,,,
good advice ,,,,, I could live with the power head in hand,,,, but worry about the display,,,,, hhuuuuummmmm more thought needed,,,,, even just the upper half of the machine as carry on would be nice,,,,, seems small enough,,,,
Me too! USair. nothing like throwing someones suitcase 6'
OMG, I hope that's a joke.
I think there are a few jobs in the world that people should not advertise as having and a airport bag tosser is definitely one of them.
This is a good starting point. It seems to vary widely but 22" or 24" inches looks to be the norm. http://www.luggageonline.com/about_airlines.cfm
I would measure the dimensions of the original CTX shipping carton to see if it fits into these. Then I would shop for a piece of luggage that is certified as carry on for major airlines, measure that, and hopefully find it a retail store to test it.
My wife used to work for an airline, and even with that has run into a lot of static with various airlines testing the limits of carry on dimensions trying to be a light traveler. If you test those limits, be ready for a cranky gate or ticket to make you check the bag.
If that happens then you want a hardwall suitcase that will protect it. Personally, I would try to start with a standard piece of hard wall carry on, failing that the most economic route might to be a large piece of hardwall luggage to check.
