There's two schools of thought on flying with a bike;
1. Pack it in a box and make it bombproof so baggage handlers can't do any damage.
2. Keep it as bike like as possible in the hope that the baggage handlers treat it with the reverence it deserves.

Even if the handlers treat it well, bikes merely wrapped up in cling film can still fall from the loading conveyor belt from a great height = dead bike. I'm sticking with hard case in all situations I can work with it.

I agree. I've done both and, if I ever get the chance to have a cycling holiday ever again, I'd go hard case everytime.
