If it is in a hard case on Southwest I have checked it.. But most of the time I take a Martin Backpacker in a soft case and carry it on. It will fit in the overhead compartment. I took my Taylor GS mini in a soft backpack two trips back and it worked but it was a hassle as flights were full on Southwest and I had trouble finding enough room. Once they wanted to gate check it but it was a soft case so I talked them into letting me take it onboard. So I am back to using my backpacker the last two flights. There are lots of horror stories. I would not take an expensive guitar in a soft case.
