Traveling with my ukulele?

Sometimes we have the opportunity to go on a trip outside the city where we live and there is no better companion than the instrument that we all love, the ukulele!

It's always great to share some good songs with those who accompany you, whether we have a moment of relaxation or when everyone can be together, eg Around a campfire. It really is one of the most beautiful and unforgettable experiences. 

Personally, every time I can go on a trip I love to take my Ukulele with me, wherever I go. But the first times I wanted to take it with me there was a fear that something would happen to him during the trip or that he wouldn't be allowed to take it with me on the plane.

Whenever you go on a trip and want to take your Uku with you, I recommend:

• Choose your Ukulele as your hand luggage to carry with you at all times. You can take it as extra luggage in the cabin of the plane but you risk that something happens to your Uku, in addition this extra luggage obviously has an additional cost.
• If your idea is that your ukulele travels in the cabin with all the luggage then take your ukulele with you in a hard case so that it does not suffer any damage. If this is not the case, in any case it is fine.
• I recommend that you put a label or something like that so you can always identify it, if it is luggage in the cabin, they usually place one but it never hurts to be able to locate it more easily. 

It is always advisable to hire some type of insurance for your luggage for the journey but they are somewhat expensive and maybe a little unnecessary if you follow these tips.

In Ukuleleria we always recommend ukuleles that are special for traveling because they are a bit thinner and easier to transport, or even an even a Waterman because being plastic they are more a bit more resistant so there is more security. But be the ukulele you have if you give them this care you can travel with him without any problem.
