American Airlines Pelican model allowed

[Jorge Diez - CX6VM]

sorry for the off topic, but I need to know about that and here some friends
maybe can help me.

 

Do you know of a Pelican case that is OK to travel with in American
Airlines?

 

I have a 1650 that seems exceed the dimensions (two bans checked
62in/157cm).

 

They need to be less than 62in lineal.

 

Anyone traveled with a 1650? Did you need to pay extra for it?

 

This is from aa.com  "Checked baggage which is larger than 62 in/157 cm will
be charged at the rate of $150 per piece."

 

thanks,

Jorge

Here is Pelican's baggage chart:

It looks like the 1620 is the biggest case that can be commonly checked
without oversize charges.
