Can I take Table Tennis Balls on an aeroplane?

The last time I transported some Table Tennis balls on an aeroplane they arrived dead. However, I can't confirm whether that was due to pressure (they weren't hand-luggage), or that they were in fact quite old.

I have 180 balls this time to bring back, so I'd rather not screw up and have them flat when I land.

I have taken balls both in my suitcase and in hand luggage and noticed nothing at all. I have also had them shipped across the world, there is no damage I can tell at all.

Do airline companies normally

Do airline companies normally allow table tennis balls in hand luggage or they only allow to be checked in suitcase?

as i said I have taken them

as i said I have taken them both ways.

Myth Busted!

I can confirm that after taking the balls as hand luggage they sustained no noticable changes in playing characteristics.
