Tommy Emmanuel was describing to a few of us in the foyer of the Tuck Room a few years back how he packs INSIDE the case with newspaper to keep the guitar from moving around in there, too--for when he flys. I'd box outside the case and pack inside the case. I used to work for UPS. You would not believe some of the things I saw. Neither did I . . . . It happens with ALL the shippers. Talk your local guitar store out of a guitar/case shipping box. Pack it tightly with peanuts. Triple tape (overlapping) every seam, lengthwise, with good quality tan packing tape. LMark
