The box measures 114-7/8" with the casters on and 112" with the casters off. Some American airlines have either a 112" or 115" length+height+width total measurement limit for any oversize baggage, so this box can be taken almost anywhere. British Airways, though, has a 75in x 29.5in x 25.5in limit, so be sure to check with the particular airlines you will be flying.
So where I'm confused is with your size allowance comment. So far as I can tell, United and seemingly all the others have a paltry 62" total measurement allowance, where besides Alaskan (N.American based that is) are you seeing allowances up to 112'?
