That's what I've heard. Supposedly, when they had the Olympics in
Atlanta the warned the international shooters not to travel through
Boston on their way.

A sticker on the gun, or on the outside of the case - saying "There's
a gun in this one, steal it now!!"

Yes, but I'm licensed in California - no reciprocity at all. IIRC a
CA resident can get a license in Arizona and get reciprocity in
something like 5 states, but the one you want is Kentucky.

I seem to remember reading that once the gun is cased, locked, and
stickered, you can place it insde another, unmarked case and send it
on it's way without the "Steal Me" sticker showing to casual
observers.

The problem may be that even though the locked gunnies is in the
suitcase locked, the suitcase is not locked.
