Have you ever watched air hostesses trying to jam those overhead bins closed because no one follows the size rules?
I would rather have my helmet in the baggage hold.

I would rather have my helmet in the baggage hold.
I do fly-away rides with my helmet 2-3 times a year.
I would never check-in my helmet. Not the way the baggage handlers throw the bags into the cargo hold, or having your helmet crushed by bigger bags as they come down the baggage carousel.
No thanks.
I've carried my helmet as carry-on countless times and never has my helmet been crushed in the overhead bin.
If you're using on the bike I'd be sure to use a dry bag vs. a duffle bag that's probably going to leak. Nothing more frustrating than having contents soaked through and trying to dry same on the road.
I use a DryPak 70l bag I purchased 10 years ago for $62. I been though all day driving rain and its never leaked.
Similar bag below. Comes in 4 sizes. The 70l bag is $67.20 and the 120l is $103.

Counts as a personal item in addition to carry-on.
Technically it exceeds the dimensions allowed (supposed to fit under the seat) but no airline has ever stopped us and others have brought much larger and numerous items.

The amount of luggage some people bring as carry-on is crazy.
One guy brought two carry-on sized luggage, in addition to two sets of ski-boots. Took up two overhead bins himself. If I bring my helmet, I'm making sure I bring something I can stuff under my seat, like a backpack or something similar.
