I just got my new copy of Taylors quarterly publication called Wood And Steel ( a freebie for buying a new Taylor) and it has a very in depth article about taking your guitar on airline flights. They have info on what to print out and take with you to show the flight attendants about the rules of taking a guitar on as a carry on. Etc Etc Etc. If you want I can scan the article and email it to you. Just let me know.
