i have an abu 6600 (gold brute model) and a two piece 6'6" MH ugly stick that i used to take everywhere when i would travel. the rod broke down and i put it in a PVC tube with end caps and put my reel in my carry on back pack. took both as carry on everytime. no issues. although one time i brought a spinning outfit as well and carried the rods and put the reels in my check in. but it was by choice.

all post 9-11. mostly 2004-2007 and i did it on a flight to japan in 09.
