he probably couldn't play it anyways.

and besides, it's nothing that a little duct tape won't fix.

Oh my God..I would have spontaniously combusted into anger, im glad he's hopefully going to get Lawyers involved. A similar thing happened with me with Greyhound, but not to the extent...They accidentaly sent my Guitar to Edmonton instead of Kelowna...but for weeks I was mourning the loss...so they sent me $100 compensaiton...which ...was...pathetic..pretty much..but It came back a month later (cultured yes) but with a gruesome nick in the back of it at the bottom.
My guitar never leaves me side when I travel by bus now..
Im not sure how I would handle the plane situation.

My guitars are only worth $400 (LaPatrie Classical). and $700 (Gibson Flying V). I have a hard case for the Flying V, but the Classical, which I use more I always make sure is with me.
If any of them were destroyed, I'd be pissed. But their both replaceable. Especialy since their both mass-produced.

Don't Pack like an Idiot. It's simple. Once your stuff isn't in your possession and it's going to be handled many many times and transported by various methods. If it's valuable and carry-on size, take it with you. If it's bigger, make sure it's bulletproof.

Just so People know, it's not always damaged from the People that handle your Luggage. The Belt System that transports your Bags from the Check-In Counters to the underbelly of the Terminal to the Bag room has what's called "Kickers" (DURRRRR Why might they be called that?) that give the Bags a 'kick' down the Beltsystem, through corners in it etc. Sometimes it's a pretty brisk one.
