*implodes forever*

Also, no clue if it's going to cost you more since I NEVER fly anywhere and I have no clue how things go, but try getting one of those sturdy trunks that people tote their suits around in, that might work?

Something reinforced like that is exactly what I'm looking for. When I flew from Great Falls to Orlando initially, I had one of my luggage pieces used as a step-stool for some of the ground crew guys to load up the other luggage. They were brand new bags, and had giant boot prints all over them. Needless to say, I was pissed. They destroyed almost $300 worth of things inside of it.

So it's one of those things I'm super paranoid about, hahaha.
