put as much gear as possible in the bike-box, sleep-bag, tent, front/rear panniers, etc. they will fit (will take space-time leap engineering, but do-able), another task. h/bar bag is carry-on. always arrive with ample time!
-another tip:
join LAB (League of American Bicyclists) or Adventure Cyclery, both present discounts for bicyclists (after you join) and air-cost for inclusion of bike "bikes fly free".
tour/ride safe,
