That depends on where you are traveling. Once we passed the Moscow  
airport for a transit. Out of five people in the group everyones  
trunk had been opened and valuable things stolen. Before the transit  
we had been warned and advised to stuff our pockets with all valuable  
things, keeping only dirty clothes and sleeping bags in the luggage  
and not by any means locking the trunks. One girl locked her trunk  
anyway, and it got out marked with a tidy knife hole where someone  
had been searching its interiors. This happened in the nineties but  
I'm not sure things has gotten better over there since then.

I've been flying a lot with one guitar + backpack and never had any  
problem. When I brought a big acoustic guitar I was allowed to stuff  
it just behind the cockpit. Electrics in gig bags usually go into the  
over-seat storage area. During tours I went with most airlines in  
Europe and south east Asia and it was all cool. The present situation  
is more difficult, because of all the looping equipment have to be  
brought. I did as Bill, bought a big ugly trunk that can swallow my  
FCB and the smaller gadgets.
