The US Department of Transport (DoT) has issued final rules for American carriers regarding the carriage of musical instruments.
It states that small musical instruments that are within the existing definition of cabin luggage should be stored in an overhead bin or closet or under the seats. However they make clear that musical instruments should be treated no differently from other carry on luggage, with space still being available on a first come first served basis.
Larger musical instruments that are not checked into the hold may be carried in the cabin provided they are in a case to protect other passengers, and that they can be safely secured in an additional seat purchased by the passenger.
