Do NOT take dry ice! Big potential problems! The best way is a styrofoam cooler inside a card board box. The frozen fish will remain frozen for days. Ive had luggage lost and frozen meat still arrives days later perfectly. When asked whats in box i say 'food'. I never mention raw meat or fish they dont like that. They worry it has dry ice or ice which will melt. Say as little as possible. US is much better than CO with this. Also if possible curbside checkin is the way to go.
