Well, some of us are old enough to remember when one could smoke on airliner.
/QUOTE]
I was very young at the time, but remember that was not so popular even then. Even my mom who had a full drawer of Mark Ten coupons thought that was cruel. I even remember her saying negative things about people smoking on the airplane. I'm even completely puzzled they still have non smoking signs. It's really a wonder some *ahem*holes could still lack the discipline to have basic respect for others.

Some of the older planes still have ashtrays or spots on the seats where they have been removed and replaced with a solid block. I have flown plenty of flights too where there is still a no smoking sign beside the seatbelt sign. I remember quite well smoking on airplanes and at the time didn't give it a second thought. It's amazing what a little education can do.
Wasn't it the underwear bomber back in '09 where people saw smoke coming from him on the jet and attacked this idiot?
I think I'll refrain from stealth vaping on an airline till I get more experience. I don't want to be caught vaping and need a change of undies afterward!
I'm not sure if you mean the underwear bomber or the shoe bomber but both were jumped for trying to light an article of their clothing on fire. Not because somebody thought they were trying to sneak a cigarette.
Someone with a contagious illness can help to not spread it by avoiding being in confined spaces with others. But of course they are more important than anyone else so they will hack and sneeze all over their seat mates instead of not flying.
On first hearing this story about the underwear bomber, passengers saw smoke first.
Edited to add: I'm not AGAINST vaping in planes or anywhere! In fact, I'm all for it. It's just that incidences like this are a cause for alarm for flight crew and, unfortunately, passengers.

There's always going to be people that try to "beat the system". First, smoke detectors are actually particle detectors and can easily be set off by anything like dust, etc. think of a tiny light beam that loses intensity as smoke or dust drift in between causing the receiver to register "something" in the air. Second, as stated repeatedly already, do you really want to find out if their detectors are better or more sensitive than the ones in your home and suffer the horrendous consequences of that mistake?!?! 
Get yourself some nicotine gum or a patch for the flights! SMH
Reflecting on the events that have transpired on airlines in the last 15 years or so, if I saw smoke/vapor coming out of a lavatory or the alarm went off on a plane I was on, it probably wouldn't be a pleasant experience for the occupant....especially if my children were with me! I'm just saying......

Craziest thing I've ever seen while flying. Long after smoking was banned on US Airlines. I flew on a Venezuelan airline from Dallas to Caracas. As soon as the wheels left the tarmac, the seatbelt and no smoking lights were turned off, alcoholic drinks started being served without ordering, they just brought trays of drinks, and Champaign down the aisles. People started walking around, laughing and visiting. Lots of smoking cigarettes.
Then they served nice meals with wine! Real meals! Then more after dinner drinks. Oh yeah, the flight attendants were very friendly and attractive women! Everyone on the plane was really happy and having a great time.

Again, there's absolutely no reason why any vapor needs to leave one's mouth..
- Take a vape & inhale
- Wait a couple seconds
- Inhale via your mouth again (without a 2nd vape)
- Hold for 10 seconds
- Exhale
Zero vapor, even with VG in direct sunlight..
Go ahead, try it right now, without even stepping on a plane...
It will not set off alarms.. It will not bother anybody around you...
I've vaped in busy airports, and I've vaped on crowded domestic US flights in my seat sitting right next to strangers using this method..
If you're going to do it, just be discreet about it..
And if you get caught, simply apologize & put it away...

Precisely.
And I have stealth-vaped happily in airplane toilets without any problems.
There IS a difference between vaping normally and stealth-vaping with the above method. If you want to make sure, do not inhale as much vapor at one time, and do a 2nd without vape inhale
Ive actually experienced a scenario where a mentally unstable individual light up a cigarette before even the door was closed. Took a video of it, its up on youtube. Search for "air rage smoking" user:arvidgunardi . It was even used recently by a UK tv after the Malaysian Air dissapearance. Poor guy was dragged out of the plane.
IMO people who vape out huge cloud in flight regardless in toilet or not, deserve to be arrested for being ignorant or simply being stupid.
Im sure these whole discussion is about people who is "mentally normal", not necessarily trying to beat the system, but simply trying to ease their cravings, considering the law isnt very conclusive yet.
Lets just assume we are all responsible adult who would never wish vaping be outlawed, so we would be sane enough to be responsible with our actions if we decide to stealth in our seat or the toilet.
