Airport & Plane question

[STEVE'S PHOTOS]

Hey guys, I have a question that I'm sure many have asked. I origionaly bought my e-cig so I could smoke in non smoking areas like in the airport and such. I hate to travel because I have to go sooooo long without smoking.

THE QUESTION: Can I get my e-cig thru security with no problem? Can I use it in the airport? Do I dare try it on the plane?

My wife and I like to hit a tropical beach at least once a year and it would make my life so much better if I could vape at will.

my mother-in-law travels to alaska every 3 months, and has had no problems. she's never vaped in public, but goes to the bathroom in the airport, or on the plane, just to avoid problems. her pv is always in her purse, which is her carry-on and passes security check every time. i wouldn't suggest box devices though for flying...they look like detonators...

Personally, I wouldn't use my PV in public places that don't allow smoking just because I figure there will be a negative response and even if I could explain it away, it's just not worth it to go there in the first place. However, I wouldn't hesitate to vape in a restroom (airport or airplane) or non-smoking hotel room.

My wife and I went to dinner tonite and I wanted so bed to give it a try after our meal. I didn't have the ball to do it. I used to be a man, what the hell.....LOL

clear labeled ziploc for the hardware. airport is no problem even out in the open. on the plane just blow the vape in your shirt. worked for me twice.

Steve,

I am a frequent flyer, and I have never had a problem traveling with my eGo and PCC case. I have not tried to vape in the terminals, and wouldn't want to risk missing a flight or the trouble it may cause... Getting on/off the plane, and walking on the jetway is a great place to stealth vape a little.. ( No cameras) *lol* I'm not promoting this, but a stealth vape is less risky then sitting out in public...

Delta actually states in their magazine that ecigs are prohibited on flights and have not tried to stealth vape or use them at all on flights.

We traveled over the holidays and did not have any issues going through security. While I did not use mine in the airport or on the plane, I did see another person use his in the airport. Didn't see anyone use one on the plane and I never asked - but I just might next time! Safe travels to you!

Pasture, I will have to give it a try on my next trip. Thank you very much. I know I would get mixed answers on this one.

I thought I would see more people using them in airports but on my last trip to the Dominican I never saw one E-cig

There's a big long thread all about this in one of the other areas:

I've flown with my electronic cigarettes quite a few times, and you are fine going through security.
I have had them in my carry on backpack, my checked luggage, and right out in the open in the bin with my shoes.

As for vaping in the airport, I usually go to the bathroom or else stealth vape, although I am fairly sure you can do it in the airport.
But you might get people complaining, so I never tried it.

As for on a plane, I would definitely not suggest trying that out in the open, but I've semi-stealth vaped on every flight I've been on.
But then I have always sat with my wife next to me and no one in the third seat.

What about the juice? Should I just bring a bunch of prefills.

As long as it's with your other liquids in the 7 oz ziplock baggie you put through the security scanner you'll have no problem.

I just bought the Joye 510. I can't wait to try it in public! I don't know about flying, can't give you advice there since I never get to leave my cow poke town. But if I WERE to fly, I would smoke in the bathroom-- just because it's such tight quarters in a plane. No need to set some crotchity old lady off.

I vaped on a plane and I'm an Arab. Beat that!

Actually I just flew to Australia from LAX and didn't get stopped or interrogated at the airport. If you have a laptop bag, put everything in there. I put spare batts with my pens , and juice in ziploc bags.

As long as the bottles are less than 3oz and they all in your quart size bag with your other liquids, you are good to go through security line. I usually pull out a bottle of juice before I put my bag away after going through security to keep handy.....

I agree with many that I would vape in the restroom of the airport or airplane, but wouldn't try to openly vape on the plane, just doesn't seem right. I don't think you should have any issues with security.

Here in my country e-cigs are a new thing i try not to vape in non-smoking places and save myself trying to explain
