Synths and keyboards: protect displays, ports and power supplies

Displays, touchscreens and rear panels can be vulnerable to pressure and side impacts. Keep a protected clearance zone around them.

Where appropriate, remove easily detachable accessories such as music rests and pack them separately. Secure power supplies and cables so they cannot reach the keys or display.

If the instrument contains a battery, check the carrier’s current rules for that battery type and the selected route.
