Pilot pens don't leak, except when you go on airplanes. Be careful.

If you fill a fountain pen completely before air travel, it shouldn't leak (no air inside to act as a pressure differential). Also keep the pen pointing tip up.

I've had this happen to me with a parker fountain pen. It never ever leaks under any circumstance other than air travel.
