You are absolutely correct when stating that people are often mistaken about requirements due to different airlines having different policies. We recommend Gracy Travel to all of our clients as they deal with these issues everyday. Even if you are travelling within the continental U.S. and bought your tickets elswhere they are always willing to provide you with the up to date rules and regulations regarding travelling with firearms and ammunition. The issue regarding ammo in seperate locked cases on SAA was not put on their website. Gracy was made aware of the change and knowing we had three trips going to Zimbabwe this past fall made it a point to call us to bring us up to date. There are a couple of other good agencies for this purpose. One is owned by Steve Turner and his business name is "Travel with Guns". There are some others but these are the only ones we have experience with.
