Guitars on Aeroplanes (1 Viewer)

I know there's an old thread about this but thought I would start a new one.

Anyone brought a guitar on an aeroplane recently? Specifically Aer Lingus?

Options seem to be:

(a) book a seat for it
(b) check it in as musical equipment in hard case (40 quid each way).

Will it get fucked up with option (b)?

Two years ago,Cant remember who I flew with,but opted to book it in. Must have been aer lingus as 40quid sounds familiar. Was fine in a hard case.
Was gonna try booking a seat,but even in a soft case it was bigger than allowed. Didnt want to then have to check in a soft case
