Question:

LCD monitor on an airline?

Anybody have any experience checking in a 20 or 24 inch LCD monitor on domestic airlines? I have original packaging but shipping it via FedEx or UPS is pretty expensive and am wondering if I can check it in as luggage when I travel. Do you know if they get damaged or if airlines take 'some' care in handling fragile stuff. I've seen baggage handlers toss luggage, don't know how they handle fragile boxes. Thanks.

Answer:

My best advice is to take the LCD monitor as carry-on luggage. Do not check in your LCD monitor. Although fragile items are not tossed into the aircraft hold, but they are stacked on top of other fragile items. And you never know what is put on top of your LCD monitor.
