Since my post earlier this week about air travel with instruments, two of my favorite woodwind bloggers have also addressed the subject, both inspired by the “United Breaks Guitars” video phenomenon.

• Helen at Bassic Sax shares a bad experience flying with a tenor saxophone.
• Patty at oboeinsight shares the United Breaks Guitars video, and, rightly, shares an additional video that helps to balance the story a little.

I think it’s also worth sharing the musical instrument policies of a few of the major (US) airlines:

• American (scroll down)
• Continental (scroll down)
• Delta
• Frontier (scroll down)
• JetBlue
• Northwest [update: Northwest is now part of Delta]
• Southwest
• US Airways (scroll down)
• and, yes, United

Travel safely.
