I do it regularly with Ryanair and Norwegian! Never had an issue! TAP in Lisbon pulled me off a plane just before take off once though.. missed the flight because they found the chainsaw in my luggage! I flew in with them, it was fine until I wanted to fly my saw home! Arseholes! Never flown with them since! I posted the saw home, it arrived in two days, obviously went by plane!!

If you can provide a letter or certificate from a technician string that the saw is empty of all fluids and properly cleaned out, then it's not normally an issue. Be warned though, even the smell of fuel is enough to stop it going on the hold. I took two saws out to the Philippines last year, one was new and still had to have a letter of confirmation from the workshop.

has anyone who posted previously have any more details about this or can anyone add to it, I'm heading out to Czech end of December and hoping to take a top handle out.

 

Brett if you get any hassle I shipped a saw out to the Czech Republic in October and it was a lot bigger parcel 9kg and it cost £29 inc vat
