HP Recommended
Product: x360 Product Y4P52AV
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello,

 

I bought a brand new, high-end Spectre x360 (Product Y4P52AV) recently -- with a 2.7 Ghz i7-7500U processor, 512GB SSD and 16 GB of memory. 

 

I am about to travel on a transcontinental flight that will be easily 16-18 hours total.

 I have purchased a hard case, crush-proof carrying case (the Pelican 1070cc) which will protect it during travel. 

 

Question-1:  can I safely put this laptop (in the carrying case) into my check luggage?  I have heard of stories of laptops whose batteries are such that they must NOT be packed into checked luggage, but must be hand-carried.

 

Question-2:  is packing a laptop into checked luggage legally permissible by the TSA?  I've checked their websites but can't seem to get a clear cut answer.

 

Would be grateful for any advice and tips.

 

Thank you.
