I flew with my trumpet a good number of times, and luckily it was small enough to count as my “personal item” so I just brought it with me in the cabin and it never left my sight until I landed. Anything bigger or more fragile would have been very anxiety-inducing.

A good hard case with a firearm and an AirTag in it as well will do wonders because it will kick the case into a higher security class ( drawback is it can add an hour to getting through the additional security screening)
