Flying with fish

[sbrady5pts]

Has anyone checked a box with live fish before? I will be traveling on Delta and the representative said that it would be fine but sounded unsure. I would have them professionally bagged and packaged. I do not see why they would have a problem but who knows!
Would there be any increased risk to the fish?

It all depends who is at the counter at the time you arrive at the airport. I was pre-approved to bring sealed fish boxes on my flight only to have a manager turn me down once I arrived at the airport. I had to walk my boxes (was doing a relo and my truck was already picked up by the moving company) to the air freight terminal to get my fish shipped. I wound up missing my flight and had to sit in the terminal overnight to catch another flight the following morning.

That is basically my worst fear.... Any other feedback or experiences

Any one else have advice on bringing the fish on a plane? I am about to purchase some fish here in NY and want to make sure I can get them back to Kansas City
