  1. Just wondering how anyone out there travels by air with their unicycles?
    I have been using a cardboard box that my uni came in but it is
    wearing out and is difficult to carry around. A large suitcase would
    be ideal but i have not found one that will fit my 26x3. Any ideas are
    appreciated.

  2. You could get a Cello case and Pad it out.

  6. Some of the Seattle gang and I have used the 'Samsonite (American
    Tourister) 35\" Wheeled Duffels' (http://tinyurl.com/ms2l4) for our
    24x3 MUnis. Not sure if a 26x3 will fit without the tire deflated.

  7. You have to be careful how you pack up your uni if your goign to take it
    flying.

    In NZ there is a extra charge for 'bikes' so when we travel we say its
    sports equipment, it has to go in the Luggage compartment as it wont
    get through Metal Metector or customs,

    I have seen it done a couple of ways,

    1. Cover in lots of cardboard (after dissasembling)
    2. Bike Box
    3. Unicycle Box
    4. In a suitcase

    Not anymore. Air NZ stopped charging for "bikes" about a year ago.
    Now they apply hefty penalties for overweight baggage instead.
