Flying with bike gear
I'm in the early stages of planning a tour of New Zealand and will be flying out from the UK and hiring bikes out there.
it's the first time I will have flown with my bike gear and was looking for advice for how to transport my helmet.
Heathrow have told me I can take it though security OK but the airlines are mostly telling me it has to be packed as checked in baggage and those that are OK with it being carried on are saying it has to go in my hand baggage which is too small for a helmet to fit...
any other advice for flying with bike gear in general also appreciated, I intend wearing my boots and jacket when boarding the plane to save a bit of weight in the cases
