I've traveled with various Adamas' over the last couple of decades and never had any problems with them in the overhead or my preference, getting them to stand it up in the closet.
In all those trips to Japan, only once did I take a hard case, and then only because I was contemplating selling that one.

High quality gig bags offer great protection and the only ones I've been using have been the InCase SlimLine model, which are so unfortunately long ago discontinued.

To tell the truth though, I personally would still be willing to travel with a medium quality gig bag because of the treatment that I've experienced to date.

Let us know how it goes after your trip is over and if you have any hardships.
