Some cases like the TriAll3 will take two bikes - and that won't pass as checked luggage.
Some cases like the one above are high risk in smaller planes with potential other bikes going.
In 2015 the team flew from the Truckee nationals to Europe. I booked a bunch of the kids out of Sac as the plane out of Reno was suspect. It was a small local prop. There was a concern about cargo opening and number of other bikes. I don't know which it was but Reno rider got to Belgium a day late.
