*** on what Matt said. I got my tank back and forth from Alaska to Bermuda with nary a mishap.
I opted for the using a cast of leg of the wife's pantyhose instead of paying for a piece of luggage.
Do let it hang once you get there so the wrinkles can fall back out.
Also, practice a few times. On about the fourth attempt I had the process nailed down tight.
I'll go look for a few month old thread...BRB
EDIT: Dang it. I guess I didn't post in that thread. Short version, lay your kilt flat, pretty side down and lining side up, on a tabletop or firmish matress. Roll the under apron, then the pleats, and then the over apron into a cylinder, and then put that cylinder of kilt into a a free piece of nylon hose your wife isn't using anymore.
The devil is the detail of getting the pleats to lay in the cylinder without putting creases into them. Three or four tries you'll probably have it down.
Have a safe trip.
