Thanks!
Went with the larger version of the telescope bag people have been talking about. This one is 43x9x11 and the one people recommend is the 39x9.5x11, but the larger one was available on prime. Also bought some bubble wrap if it's too big or the padding isn't good enough. Planning to carry the battery and check the board. I also considered the rifle case, but the weight (16lbs), inability to carry a helmet, and being asked if I'm carrying firearms seemed like a downside. It does seem to offer much better protection, though.
The premium options seems to be sector9, honuaunlimited, and boardbag, but sadly I doubt any of those could deliver in four days.
