You might just have to fiddle it.

Google is your friend. There's quite an informative blog post here https://www.3d-varius.com/take-plane-violin/. It relates specifically to electric instruments made of composite material but most of the advice would apply equally to a traditional wooden violin.
TL;DR - loosen the strings, pack it in a hard case, take it in the cabin.
