Good afternoon

I always travel with 2 suitcases. One with diving equipment and clothing and the other with the pelican with the waterproof box for the machine and domes.

I always traveled to Asia and nothing ever disappeared.

For Egypt it is the first time. Some reports of equipment disappearing? The machines go with me in my backpack
 
I did DIY for my trips. Samsonite plastic clam shell, 13 pounds tare wt. put the gear in plastic vaccuum bags. Put eh pickable foam around it then, set it aside. Take a small cardboard box line it. Put in some expanding foam, let it set. put in a separation layer and then the gear add more expanding foam for the set. take it apart and then you have semi crushable padding. Looks like regular tourist gear. downside was I did not have a water proof kit to store it in but my kit was video gear so the camera lived in water proof housing with moisture muncher. traveled with soft bag for diving while hard-shell suitcase left land side.
