When I ship beer or want to travel with it, I use UPS Pad Packs
to protect my beer. They work great and you can pick them up at any UPS store for free or order them. Once you get them, cut off the sticky part that seals the envelope so you can reuse them over and over. Put a bottle in and roll it closed and seal it with painters tape. It creates a nice firm bubble wrap barrier plus cushions the top and bottom and can be easily opened and the tape reused.
Here's a six pack in my 22" roll on suitcase. I have clothes underneath them and I put more clothes on top. Checked it from Austin to San Diego and it worked great. TSA did not even bother to look at it after it was x-rayed.
I will reuse them to take back some wonderful brew from the Stone brewery this weekend. 22 oz bottles fit fine too.
The method also works great when shipping bottles via UPS.
