Yes, there’s actually a federal law that requires airlines to allow instruments if they fit in the overhead bin or under the seat (even if they exceed the airline’s size limitations for carry ons)…I read a ton about that when we were trying to figure out flying with my older son’s bass clarinet. But in the case of the horn, I’m pretty sure it WON’T fit under the seat or in the overhead, so the law doesn’t apply (at least that’s my understanding).
