I always "pack it" then don't take it and take my 300 f4 and 300mm f2.8 with the 3 x TC's
If I take it I will also have to take a "big" tripod and Gimbal
AND it will have to go in a suitcase BUT as hold baggage ....... wrapped in clothes to cushion it ..........
about £100 round trip for an extra bag ... money not really the issue ...... I'd just be expecting that when I take it out of the bag it will "rattle" and be in pieces, (especially after reading how far the baggage handlers throw your suitcase)
I could try it as hand baggage ... but I will have another 12 kilos of photo/computer hand baggage, plus stuff in every pocket
