Due to some work circumstances, I may have to fly with my bow for a hunt rather than drive like I had planned to.

What type of case do people use for flying? I only have a soft case and wouldn't think that would be the best option for flying with the chance of it breaking, or just the sighting getting way out of wack.

Really don't want to spend a lot since this will probably be the only time I need it for a long time.

I've flown to New Zealand and Canada several times with a $60 Plano and it's done fine.

Anything lockable is a must but I have an SKB. The way I justified the price was pay $2000 for a nice Hoyt there was no way that I was going cheap on the case and letting it get damaged just not worth the risk.
