I started padding my frame with foam tubing and zip-tying everything down, which helps a bit, but it’s no guarantee. I’ve also learned to pack small parts like pedals, chains, and tools in ziplock bags—they’re less likely to go missing that way.If you’re going long-distance, flying business class might be worth it for the extra luggage perks and comfort, especially with something as awkward to check as a bike. When I flew to Asia, I found some decent Business Class Flights to Asia rates that made the trip a lot smoother. Plus, some travel companies have special deals if you’re willing to reach out and ask around.
