Flying w equipment

Don't worry.

Don't worry.

Not sure why all of the hullabaloo over shipping gear....

Your Arri lights will be fine. There's a reason the case weighs a gazillion pounds, so that your gear will be safe. The only drawback to flying with it is that you'll be paying overweight baggage charges- $50.00-75.00 depending on the carrier. For added protection, pull the lamps out of the units. As for theft, the scumbags that would be inclined to do such, are looking for much more valuble things such as laptops and HVX's.

Never ever check the camera. Never ever.

Just back from LA. Rented lights from Wooden Nickel. A very professional outfit. Biggest hassle was catching a cab and driving. Carried all camera equipment on board airplane. No hassles there. Use a PortaBrace bag. It carries camera, laptop, and all accessories.
