As I stated to the first response to my post, I didn't have more room on my body for another carry on. I have traveled more than 1,000,000 miles via air in my working career and I made the decision to put my CPAP at risk. If it didn't make it I would buy another one. Acceptable risk IMHO. Not for every trip, but certainly the right decision for this trip. Most of the time if will be in it's travel case in my hand.
That's fine, but maybe you should have made that clear in your first post. There are tens of thousand of people that read this forum. It would not be good for one of the readers who is less informed than you to think packing the CPAP in checked luggage is a good standard practice.

Remember, when traveling with ambulatory children, put backpacks on them.
Let them carry THEIR stuff.
Never trust baggage handlers to give a hoot about your CPAP.
Any airline, any stuff, if it is hard to replace, CARRY IT.
