notes on airline travel

Certainly go with the cheap suitcase. You might want to check with the airline first regarding their regulations for bicycles and get a written copy of those regulations. There are plenty of anecdotal examples where the employee (including supervisors) are unaware of the actual policy. Be sure to bring those regulations to the check-in counter.

Below is a good website to check.
