My accordion is a junior size and I have a soft carrying case. It fits
nicely in the overheads and has been all over the US and Great Britain.
My technique for getting it on without hassle is to wear it like a
backpack, then I get to the front of the line when they call for persons
with special needs. The plane is not full when I get to my seat so I can easily stuff it in the overhead. Then I sit down and caution anyone else
who wants to use my space that they should not. At the end of the trip I smile at a taller, stronger person and ask for help in getting it down,
put it on my back and exit. (Of course being a white haired woman gets
rid of a lot of hassles.)
