I've got a BikeBoxAlan which I've used more times than I care to remember and the bike has always arrived without damage. It's expensive for what it is, and storage is a pain if you haven't got somewhere to dump it when it's not in use, but when in use it's been excellent. The only downside is there's not much space for fatter tyred.
I've also got a Helium inflatable bike bag, which works well until the bladders get punctured, which they invariably do, and it's much fiddlier to use.
I've got a soft bag which I used once, and the gear hanger got bent despite being 5mm titanium plate. Never used it again.

Is there a thread about bike bags and putting bikes on a plane? My new Fairlight Strael has arrived in the UK and, unfortunately, it looks like I won't be able to ride it back to Valencia when I go to the UK in September and so will have to fly with it instead.
Any recommendations? I don't mind investing a little as I'll likely use it a fair bit in the future.
