I once shipped a build-up to the hotel several years ago using FedEx and it arrived partially broken, even when packed quite well. Ever since, I've designed my builds so they can be broken down and placed in a box suitable for carrying onto a plane and fitting under the seat in front. I've never had any serious problems with this method over the last 20+ years that I've attended the show

I wonder if it was Fed-Ex. I was thinking of doing it this year for two build-ups. I did the under the seat last year and that worked.
