Hi Donald,
I've never had any problems (KLM, Air France, British Airways, Cathay
Pacific, South African Airways) - but take them in the hand luggage as the
luggage that goes in the hold gets thrown around a bit! I have been asked
to open my suitcase on several occasions during check-in to confirm the
choke isn't something more sinister! Be prepared to unscrew the casing.
(some airports x-ray all hold luggage at check-in)
Hope this helps,
Roger.
