Not sure where else to put this thread, but has anyone managed to travel with a full-sized tripod? Lest I get detained by TSA or entrust my tripod in the hands of Southwest Airlines baggage handlers, I figured I'd seek some advice here.
Planning a trip to the Grand Canyon (via Vegas), not planning to check a bag since I'm the last to arrive and want a speedy getaway from the airport. I have a full-sized (68"+ tripod) that folds down to I'd guess less than 3 feet tall once bagged. I suppose I could try to get it diagonally in my suitcase, but that's definitely going to require the biggest bag I have.
Anyone travel through the airport with their tripod have any advice?
