Air Canada Travel with helmets

No issues on two flights, each with way more baggage than I ought to have.
Patigonia duffle with riding gear vacuum sealed
+ small daypack
+ helmet
Breezed through customs.
 
I made it to Japan and back no problems with the Helmet bag. Pretty easy
 
I would never want to check my helmet in.

The way the baggage handlers take care of the checked stuff is... hmm... well.. not the gentlest
 
I flew with Air Canada last christmas and took my helmet as a carry-on with no problem.

Wearing it in the airport probably isn't a good idea though.
 
Just debating that now. I can get my camera and computer gear in my pillion bag as carry on no problem. I'm wondering if I can get my knee armor and helmet into a light cloth bag as the other one. Knee armor is bulky
So I have 27 tank bag and two 23 litre top load cases will stay on the bike - that's lots for clothes etc.
I'll wear the bulky Scott jacket then put it in the overhead.
Knee armor fits nicely in one of side cases so that will work for getting there. Just stuff more clothes in the tank bag and and use the pillion bag for the electronics to carry on plus helmet...that'll fly

Just discovered my pillion bag expands like crazy giving me near 30 liters not 20 and has backpack straps - problem solved. That and my helmet for carry on. Tank bag and side cases stay on the bike
