I packed three hurricane vases there and back in my suitcase with no problems. I wrapped them in my clothes- each individually. I just took a couple of thicker items and rolled the vases in them. Then I packed my suitcase and when it go about half full I placed them in the middle, then packed the rest of my stuff on top. I made sure my suitcase was full to the brim too so there wasn't any room for the stuff to move around. Worked good for me.
