Homebrewer Looking for Yeast!

I often check beer and rarely have had problems. Bubble wrap, dirty clothes -- and of course zip lock bags -- have worked well for me. Hard sided suitcases are better, but have used those upright rolling suitecases as well. If you are thinking on a grander scale, I have a few times traveled with a box designed to ship 12 bottles of beer. Each bottle indivually isolated (one box used styrofoam, the other had thick cardboard inserts). I bought a handle strap at a travel store (two belts were tightened around the box and connected with a handle like on a suitecase -- made it easier to lift). I went over with the box full of (good) American beer which I gave out as I filled the box for return. I would still put each bottle in a zip lock, though.
