Check local Evans - picked up couple of boxes las t night for the same purpose (flight). They have some extra large ones (electric bikes) which you can resize down. To fit two sets of wheels you'll need 22cm width minimum, 25cm perhaps. Wheels off and strapped to the frame on each side so frame rests on them. Use cable ties and pipe insulation and any old paper/cardboard to double up on sides. Take rear mech off and wedge rear dropouts with piece of wood, remove forks and strap to top/seatstays. Have travelled many of times this way. BA is best as it takes bike as your luggage, no extra cost.

Ta. I've got a proper flight case that I've used often enough so my bike will go in that. Missus will need to borrow a flight case again or scout out a cardboard box. It's the extra wheels I've not tried to take before that I can see being a problem. Yeah, we have BA flights.
I guess I need to look at their rules to see if two cardboard wheel boxes taped together to form one piece of luggage will be allowed.

Ta. I guess the tricky part is getting hold of one of the big boxes.
This is for a flight, not postage.
