As title says. Going on 1st biking trip in a few weeks to spain, bringing the full face with me.
What's the best way to carry it? Should I put it in the bike bag or can it be carried on with hand luggage?
Wear it as a hat…
That ^
I normally fill it full of clothes and stick it in the middle of my hold bag, padded all round by other kit.
It'll be vulnerable in a bike bag, and you *might* get it on as hand luggage/hat, but personally I couldn't be dealing with the arguments.
I always put in in the bike bag in a soft helmet bag or two, behind the forks under the downtube where it's reasonably protected. It's a helmet, designed to take some knocks 🙂
I always carry it on. I have a Troy Lee which came in a cool helmet bag but they're cheap and easy to get. You can also stuff your tickets, passport and duty free Haribo in there.

I've literally just got a flight with my full face and used it as my personal item, put it in a Tesco bag and stored it under my seat. Most flights allow carry on luggage + a personal item.
I’ve carried mine on as hand luggage in a helmet bag and dangling off a rucksack clipped to the bag by the chin strap.
Never had an issue.
