Korg Mono/Poly

Hello everyone. I'll be playing some concerts in another country soon and I rally want to bring my Mono/Poly as my main synth. 

Do you guys have any experience with bringing your Mono/Poly on short plane trips (in a flightcase of course)? Would you recommend it? Or should I buy a small analogue modelling synth and bring that instead?

Thanks!

It would be a good idea to get a small VA synth or a DSI mopho somthing like that as a back up somthing that could be carried with you and not in the hold.  some flight have a special allowance for musical instrument with in a certain size and weight to be viewed as extra hand luggage.  Bring your mono/poly also but be prepared to have it serviced or fail along the way.  It may not have any problems but you have the small VA as back up.  I gigged mine at a festival and it was flight cased and it performed well at the gig but when I got it home the keyboard didnt trigger so well.  I guessed some dirt of some kind had gotten under the rubber contacts so cleaned them but still it wasn't to great.
