Cooler suggestions for planes

[Deano0686]

Hey everyone. Trying to figure out what the best option is for coolers to fly meat home with. Also what’s everyone’s favorite option to get skull and horns home. Thanks in advance!

Cooler is really irrelevant. I’ve flown near in carnitas boxes and coolers both. The coolers were igloos and Coleman extreme’s. They worked fine. As did the carriers insulated boxes.


Flying commercial I don’t know the protocol on that. We always shipped with the meat.

Insulated fish boxes like this one. I've had fish remain frozen for 24 hrs, including flying from Alaska to east coast, then left stacked in garage from midnight- 9am with a few bags of ice on top, covered in a few blankets, followed by a 5 hr drive in my trunk. In July. Not these exact boxes, but they are all pretty much the same, waxed cardboard and metallic bubble wrap insulation. https://www.sportsmans.com/fishing-...xIVjVFCNiHOCx7D-CNH-nhqcZb_l_pQ8aAjcDEALw_wcB

Edited to add: if you're flying as checked bags, pack one full to 49 lbs, and then for the rest, tape two boxes together (97-99 lbs) Fees for overweight (up to 100 lbs)/extra bag are the same, so better to check one double box and pay half of what you pay to check two extra separate boxes

Awesome thank you this is exactly what I was looking for. I’ll probably just need one I’m just deer hunting. So I may just pack one right to 49 pounds and leave the rest of the meat for my buddy as a thank you
