Yep, call them. Don't be surprised if you have to explain what pole vault poles are!

Call them and email me and tell me what they say.

I have a lot of updates to make on that section of the site, hopefuly I get around to it soon.

I have flown USAir and SkyBlue, and depending on the airport, the both flew 16'+ pole bags for free or a small oversize charge.
When the poles wouldn't fit on the plane that we were taking, both companies held onto the poles and put them on the next plane going to the same location in which the poles would fit for free. They actually delivered them to the hotel we were at for free when they got there. Not bad.
