HEYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ITS JAKE!!!! WHERE IN NAPLES?!?!?
Oh Yea: You could be able to get them on the plane if you have a very LARGE garbage bag like bag full of water and a cardboard box to seal it in, I would call the airlines and PERSONALLY ASK THEM what you could do to transport the fish, I would personally call beforehand.

Hope ya get some nice specimens!

No airlines allow fish in carry on or check in baggage. Trust me, I tried.

Depending on how important or how badly you want to have live fish shipped back to your home. It isn't always cost effective, but it can be done. You just CAN'T bring them back on the same plane as you travel. Like I shipped back Plants along with about 25 to 30 freshwater shrimp and 1 - 4" inch catfish that I collected while in Fla one year.

Delta Cargo will ship them 36hrs-to-48hrs turn over or you can get them there via there Dash service within 24hrs. Note: this isn't a door to door service, You package them (in a Styrofoam box packed in a cardboard box), you drop them off and pick them up at Delta Cargo at the Airport. Or you can ship them same packaging required via some commercial carriers, like UPS, DHL and even Fed-X, which as been known too carry live Crickets and Reptiles.
