Please ensure that you check the weight of your luggage, as there are weight limits on flights, especially if your trip involves small aircraft. Normally, the weight limit is 40 pounds per person, which is divided as follows: one 10 lb. carry-on piece of luggage and one 30 lb. checked bag. The checked bag should be a soft duffel bag with no rigid bottom (except for rod cases). If you only have one soft duffel bag, it must not exceed the dimensions of length: 30 inches, width: 22 inches, and height: 11 inches.
