Air travel with a firearm

[devon deer stalker]

So, contact the carrier and only the carrier and ask do they allow the carriage of sporting firearms (never use the term weapons) and ammunition and what are THEIR requirements. Declare at the time of booking the flight (phone up after booking online) and again at arrival at check in.

And having said all that don't make the same mistake i did, first time with Delta, great no problems, i even had all THEIR terms and conditions and communications printed off, made the same journey 2 years later with Delta, but DIDN'T print it all off and take it with me to check-in, and then the nightmare began, all you need is a jobsworth that make up their own rules when time is at a premium.
