I've been searching for a set of used doubles to use in Mexico (I'll be there for a least two months) but no luck, and with the price of new tanKS I'm thinking about just flying down with mine. Looks like it's only going to cost aprox 50 USD to travel with a extra pice of luggage as long as the double aluminum 80's with bands don't weigh more than 50 lbs?
If I have to package tanks separately that's 50USD per tank. Anyone have experience packing scuba doubles for air travel?
I'm thinking i will strip hardware except for tank bands so empty tanks can be inspected. Wrapping tank in cardboard then bubble wrap.
Is there a strap to Handel doubles like a duffel?
I spend a few months a year down in Mexico each year so I may just leave them down there.
