        Take it to the UPS store and have them pack it, so if anything does happen there is no issue with the insurance. Ground is bad enough, but that one has to fly to HI. C.Y.A.

              Wrap the body with bubble wrap so it can't move at all within the case, including slipping in the direction of the headstock. You don't want the body to be able to slip and put weight and pressure on the headstock in case they have it upside down at some point.
              Fedex would be a much better way to go as well if at all possible.

                That's not necessary. Some people say you should, others say you shouldn't. Carvin recommends you don't.
