Re: traveling with the clarinet

My experience, having flown with clarinets as carry-on baggage both domestically, in the US, and internationally, as well as being pulled aside multiple times for further baggage inspection, is that the additional scrutiny has never been due to a clarinet. I think most baggage x-ray scanner operators routinely see and properly identify woodwind instruments. I know there are many members of this board that routinely fly with clarinets in the cabin.

Just be sure to remove any reed knives and place them in checked baggage, those draw more attention.
