Two reasons that
might not be the best idea...
- Most airlines have a 50 pound limit for your bike box. It would be pretty easy to go over so be careful about that.
- TSA will be more likely to tear everything apart. I consider them a bigger risk than the baggage handlers, since all of the bike damage I have had was due to them.
