Kevin, you should know better,

You will have to check them due to carry-on weight limitations, especially on 
international flights. An iron meteorite could be used to bash down the cockpit 
door. They would not even allow me to carry on the Garza stone which weighs 
less than either of the two irons you suggested.  Of course, you could always 
try if you want to get hassled.


Best of Luck,

Adam

Subject: [meteorite-list] Meteorites in your Carry-On Luggage

I want to bring two iron meteorites, one a Campo of 10 kgs., the other
a Gibeon of 4 kgs., to Costa Rica from Miami on American Airlines. I
would never check them and take a chance they might disappear. I would
carry them on the plane in a small suitcase.


Are these prohibited items? How do dealers flying around the planet to
shows ship their rocks?


Thanks for any and all that have experience with this and respond.
