I took my K3 to Grenada for CQWW as carry on in a Zero-Halliburton 
case that I had picked up several years ago at a hamfest.  It held 
the radio, a switching power supply, cables and more.  It fit in the 
overhead compartment, as well as under the seat when necessary.   The 
case is 14 1/2" x 16 1/2" x 9" outside dimensions.  Coincidentally, I 
have another much smaller Z-H case for my KX1.  But I found that the 
KX1 was so small that it was better off just bubble wrapped in 
regular suitcase or carryon camera case when I travelled overseas with it.
