I have to carry cameras, laptops, etc. So far, the advice is to carry on board if at all possible. If not, have lots of good insurance!! Of course insurance won't do me any good if I end up there with no cameras or computers. The airlines will not cover any expensive items in checked luggage. What a mess!! I guess I'll use my iPhone :-( If they allow that!
