DRY ICE??? It is actually classified as Dangerous Goods and if you choose to do it yourself you have to pack them appropriately, in a specific container with DG labels etc and will have to ask permission to the airline. On top of that the Captain will have to phisically sign for it if he/she accepts the load!!

Be careful guys, if you do these things do it the proper way, better be safe than sorry...ICAO rules are very clear.
