I've never flown with a bike before so hoping to get some anecdotal or even well-informed advice..
I make techy sculptures and I want to transport one on a flight in the coming weeks. A hard bike travel case is the perfect size for this thing. Is it likely to get held up at the airport? I'm imagining airline security looking at the X-ray of what is obviously a bike travel case and seeing it full of industrial looking power supplies and radiators and fans and so on and holding it up.
Never done it before but I’ve stuffed my bike box with clothes and tools as well as a bike and never had an issue. I assume you’ve already looked at your airline’s bulky luggage policy? Bikes might be included in checked luggage but not bulky misc luggage.

Any thoughts appreciated!
