I had a few sneaky zero exhale puffs while on a plane and seated, it seemed to be fine. But it was a short 45 minute flight, and not many people where on board so..

Now, if the crapper in the plane has one of those flushes where you press on the floor button and a flap activates, it's extremely likely that it creates a suction air flow. Blow the vapor betweem your legs downward while sitting on the loo and it should get all sucked by the flow underneath.

I used that techique to smoke a ciggie on a plane once. I cannot condone this behaviour in quoting my own experience, you never know what may happen. All I'm illustrating is that it's efficient, and if you really want to have a smoke/vape, this is a good way to lessen the chance of triggering alarms and getting caught.

I've vaped in my seat every time I've flown with no problems at all. I was as stealthy as possible. No one cared. If I remember correctly, I've vaped in the planes bathroom as well. I remember being very weary of dropping my PV in the toilette. It'd be landing in someone's pool on the ground below if that were to happen. :p

Instead of a pool, it falls onto a mini bouncy castle, while the guy is desperately wheezing for breath from his PAD habit, trying to inflate it for his kids birthday.

I'm taking a trip tomorrow and was wondering if it's alright to bring my Provari along. All i have read online aside from the rules are people bringing on egos. What Mods have you taken on board?

I just flew to Florida, vaping on the porch now. Took a whole bunch of stuff. Provari, clearo, V3, four bottles of juice. No drama.

I believe it boils down to simple math to arrive at the correct answer to vaping anywhere on a commercial air flight... Don't even think about countering that vaping isn't smoking. The TSA and Air Marshals don't give a darn and there's no judges to reason with at 30,000 ft...

Penalties: Civil fines for smoking on an airline flight range from $2,200 for smoking in an airplane seat or cabin to $3,300 for smoking in an airplane lavatory. Tampering with a smoke detector installed in an airplane lavatory is punishable by a $2,200 fine. 14 C.F.R. § 121.317(g), (h), (i) (2005); 49 U.S.C.A. § 46301 (2005).

...OR...

For about $18.00 you can buy a package of generic nicotine lozenges to manage your cravings... added bonus no risk of arrest, law enforcement/air marshal harassment or not making it to your final destination. Plus, consider the discomfort of sitting in handcuffs for several hours in a cramped airline seat.

In today's security climate... you do NOT want to mess around with violating federal law on a commercial aircraft. It's not taken nor dealt with lightly under any circumstances. Plus any offense puts you on a watch list... not to mention if you are flying on business odds favor you losing your job getting busted while traveling.

Probably has something to do with being 30,000 feet in the air in a metal tube with little glide capability and if anything goes wrong it will be about 5 minutes of sheer terror before dying.

LMAO... this is pure gold...

I took my provari to cancun and back. no problems. I did take the bat out, i did not want to risk accidental presses.

thanks dog hair. It's my first trip to vegas and I'd hate to start losing before I even got on the plane.

Vegas baby yeah!!!!

Yeah, I know… it’s Airline policy. But will it set off that smoke alarm in there? Will Sky Marshals jump from overhead compartments and haul my furry ... to the cargo hold? I’m just askin’ in case I see someone go in there to vape so I can report the devious ....... to the proper authorities of course.

Hey. Vapes on a Plane! That just came to me. I'm real funny. :unsure:

You can vape in the head of any aircraft or anywhere else if you're careful.

You'd be surprised how far even the largest airliners can glide if all engines are lost.

Just finished the round trip. On the way home I forgot and found my V3 with a T3 on it in my pocket after the bag disappeared into the xray machine. I just threw it in the plastic tub with my shoes and phone. They didn't bat an eye. Took a few puffs in the crapper by the gate before take off then threw the T3 in a little ziplock. What is weird is that the T3 leaked like a pig on the way there but didn't leak a drop on the way home and was half full both ways. Can't speak for everywhere but Phoenix and Tampa seem to know what PVs are about.

The FAA has never issued a ruling making it illegal to vape on planes. These are airline policies not federal law. Where you will get into trouble and face prosecution is in not following an airline employee's instruction when they tell you to stop.

I've vaped on every plane I've been on. To miami, Rome, Trinidad, Ny, Philly, Texas and Tobago. No one has ever said a thing going through any security gate. On the plane I either wait till lights are off, double inhale and exhale in my shirt or I go in the head and do the same. Never a problem if your smart about it.

I guess that I will toss my two cents in. When I fly I get a big steaming cup of coffee just as soon as possible. Nobody ever seems to wonder how my coffee stays "steaming" hot for two hours in a crappy little paper cup. Also no one ever questions "steam" being blown off of coffee.

I've tried that in restaurants before and it looked pretty natural there too. Most of the time on planes I just stealth vape and exhale into the blanket. I've never been told anything. One time a passenger sitting next to me seemed to notice but just smiled.

You could, It wont set off any fire alarms, since I smoke at work and at the house with fire alarms all around me.

Then again you could jump out a car going 60 MPH , but Should you?...........


HAHA I could just imagine something happening like on Harold and Kumar escape Guantanamo Bay, when he tries to smoke his pipe on the plane :)
