Yep....

Most airlines have already banned it.

that said...I had an 8 hour flight on American.
I just stealth vaped (hold it for a few seconds then blow down hard) and had a KGO with a mini nova in my hand the whole flight.

No one even noticed.
If asked I would have played dumb and stopped though.
I didn't see anything about e-cigs in American's on board literature, but it IS in Southwest's.

From the American site: "Smoking

As a result of Federal legislation effective July 1, 1997, all American Airlines and American Eagle flights are nonsmoking. In addition, the activation of electronic “e-cigarettes” is not allowed nor is smoking permitted on any of the flights operated by American’s codeshare partners, including those who belong to the global oneworld Alliance. However, SNCF French Rail in Europe still allows smoking, and American codeshares on many of SNCF’s rail routes to and from Paris"

I stealthed before, flight to Honolulu was long, but was extremely low key about it, window seat with wifie next to me, exhaled into a cup of liquid. I used a tube mod, with no ash tip light, it basically looked like I had a black magic marker in my hand. If someone is tempted to try a restroom, be aware that some smoke alarms will be set off if you create clouds of vapor, so you should still be stealth, minimize vapor into the air.

Suggest you bring your e-cig paraphernalia in your carry on bag. Yes, use the one quart zip lock plastic bag for both your e-liquid and batteries.
Would not suggest vaping on the airplane. Just not worth the hassle or fine if you happen across someone that may make a big scene because of your vapor.

Just went to Hawaii and had no problems what so ever with the TSA. They did not even blink when scanning my backpack.

Going home in a few days to see my dad who has been ill. Is this overkill? I packed a one quart bag full of ejuice o_O lol (each bottles less 88.72 ml (3 oz) 20130310_235130.jpg Oh man.... :vapor:

That sure looks like more than 3oz. (9 10ml bottles)
If a bottle says 10ml that's probably what they are gonna consider it.

hmm, i had seen a post claiming they blew vapor directly into an aircraft bathroom's smoke detector without setting it off.
