[Dixielandjazz] Trombone Carry On

[John Mumford]

Stan,

When I am at DIA (Denver Airport) I see passengers with instruments all the
time waiting to board planes.  I don't think you will have a problem at DIA
but you may at your hometown airport.  I found the worst airport to carry on
an instrument is San Francisco.
