Gents, I need some advice. Am putting together an overseas hunt, and planning to take my rifle. The baggage will be checked-thru to destination, but all the flights I'm looking at will require a connecting flight in Europe. Looking at several airlines and routes available at reasonable rates, the ones that keep popping up include London/Heathrow, Amsterdam, Munich, Warsaw, and Paris. Have even seen a few connectors thru Frankfurt or Istanbul. I have not decided on a particular airline or route yet; still shopping for the best deal.
Based on your own previous experience, are there any airports which should be avoided? Any that are particularly hunter-friendly? Understand that not all countries are firearms-friendly, but am wondering which ones are less likely to be a hassle while traveling with firearms. Thanks.
