Flying with a controller
Flying with a controller Posted on: 18.12.2012 by Alonzo Lorren For the holiday season I would like to take my NS6 from one side of Europe to the other side of Europe. As much as I like the machine though, I really don't like it's size. Even if it does beat lugging two turntables, a mixer and a crate of vinyl's around. Anyway, I was wondering if someone takes his/her controller flying and more importantly how do you do it? I really don't feel like checking it in and having some luggage handler giving my NS6 to him/herself as x-mas bonus. On the other hand officially it is also too big to take it as hand luggage, although I do believe I could persuade KLM to let me take it on board. Which would mean having to haul a heavy piece of hand luggage through three airports and two train stations. So how do you fly with your controller? KIO | |

| Oretha Afful 19.12.2012 | I have a slim S4 flight case that fits as carry on luggage. Trade in your NS6 for the S4. or just check it like everyone else said. |

| Rey Holubar 18.12.2012 | They don't have enough time to deal with trying to steal from lugage and the chance of getting fired is also a pretty big risk and the chances one of the lugage guys even knowing what an NS6 is, is pretty slim. I'd believe your bigger worry should be it getting broken. scamo |
| Tatum Ansaldo 18.12.2012 | That's why they're called flight cases. It really is your only option, I don't believe any airline will let you carry it on. |
| Alonzo Lorren 18.12.2012 | And you're not at all worried about the luggage guy? |
| Marva Latsko 18.12.2012 | I just bought a flight case for my xone 92. I know it's smaller then the NS6, but that's the best solution I've got for you ;-) Zomo do really good flight cases, google them. |
| Tatum Ansaldo 18.12.2012 | Put it in a flight case and check it. Really the ink option with a controller as big as the NS6. |
