I do the same thing on planes with no problem. No need to be obvious about it and cause problems. Besides, for me, it's only a quick drag or 2 to help me get through a 3 hour flight. My husband goes into the bathroom to vape. The really good thing about e-cigs is that we no longer fight over who gets to go have the first cig while the other one waits for the luggage
~Linda~I'm sure I read somewhere that Southwest has a "no e-cig use" policy on their planes.....can anyone confirm?
PTDJ - Amsterdam is one of my favorite sites, the people are friendly, and beautiful, they also speak English (yep, me the ugly American that doesn't know the language). The food is great except for local cuisine. They have every national cuisine imaginable and it's very good. The sites are stunning and you can walk the whole city. I'd love to live here, Amsterdam has it going on.
Yep your correct.
Nice city indeed, they do love Indonesian food! Its been a few years since I have been there, look forward to my visit. I actually fly into Brussels and will take the train into Amsterdam, vaping all the way!
So here I am in Norwich, UK with 5 mods, loads of $$$$ worth of supplies and only one mod works. I'm frustrated with the mods. I did bring a few inexpensive PT's like 808's and 510's for "just in case" and "just in case" seems to have happened. I can't understand how I can spend so much money for these mods and they absolutely don't work. They all seem to have button/switch problems.
Anyway, I have only seen one other person using an e cig. I thought there might be more.
More after the flight home next week. We'll see how customs reacts going the other way.

You should have no problems with customs. You don't need to declare your mods or juice or anything. I've been in and out of the country twice with multiple mods in the last two months, and never had a question or an issue.
Good luck!
No problems coming home. I flew from Norwich, UK through Amsterdam and into Atlanta. In Amsterdam one fellow in security did ask if "that" was my bag, I said yes, then he pulled out my XHaler and asked what it was. I said an electronic cigarette, he said "OK". That was it.

most-wanted, I'm gonna put it out there for the world to see. It's really rather stupid once you know what it is but I thought it had a "Jetsons" look for e cigs.

Thanks so much for reminding me.....I need to stop at the mini mart on my way to the movies tonight
Could anyone post a list of airlines known to prohibit e-cig use on board the flight? There have been various airlines mentioned in replies in the thread, but I couldn't find one that summarizes them in a list.
If anyone has additional airlines to include, it would be great if they could quote the reply with the list and add the other airline to the list so it stays in one piece.
Thanks for any help on this.
(By the way, one thing I've done on a couple trips is wear a turtleneck. When I vape in my seat I pull the collar out, blow the vapor down inside the shirt, and let the collar go. No vape haze in the overhead reading lights when the cabin lights are turned down at night.)

Eric, I have confirmed Southwest, American and Delta do post in the in-flight magazine "No E Cigs". However, really does not matter, if you openly vape on a airline, not much good will come of it.
So I have spent a LONG time reading this entire thread because in a couple of weeks I am taking my first plane ride since I started vaping. I understand that no one has really talked about troubles with bringing their devices through airport security. Everyone talks about their penstyle, their 510, even their Chucks, but nobody has mentioned anything about box mods. I have a Bartleby (looks like most other 3.7v battery box mods in case you aren't familiar), and I plan on bringing my Vypr (typical cylinder style). The Bartleby has a built in charger that hooks up to the computer through mini USB. Since I'll have my laptop, I won't have to carry any external chargers other than my USB cable. Both devices use the 14500 battery, and with one in each device, I will have no loose batteries to carry either. I can just put either battery into the Bartleby to charge it while I am on my trip.
OK, so, my question is, am I going to have problems with the Bartleby at security? I mean it is kind of an odd looking device... I could see where someone might mistake it for some kind of detonator or something, even though the thousands of sets of keys security must see every day probably have little boxes with buttons that could easily be detonators too. I plan on putting both devices, some atties, cartos, and a few 6ml bottles of ejuice into a small case in my carry on. I also plan to print up a little business card with an explanation of what it all is. I figure these methods may be enough, but I was curious if anyone else had taken a box mod through security before.
Also, I was hoping to be able to vape on the plane, the longest leg of the trip is Tucson, AZ to Atlanta, GA. That's a pretty long trip, but unfornuately after a quick check of Delta's website, I found this:
Damn. Looks like I better bring some nic gum. "Safety reasons", eh?
Anyway, box mods through security? Anyone??

I have had no problems with an average run of the mill 3.7v box mod. I will be bringing my WetBox through MSP to O'Hare next week. Check this out, as it might help answer some questions for you:

I fly frequently and for the first time noticed that the flight attendant said "smoking and smokeless tobacco products are prohibited on this flight." I can only guess that meant ecigs. How would they even know if someone is using a snu? It was a Delta flight.
Yep, noticed that on a regional flight about 4 months ago, no way they can enforce it.
Hey Guys,
I just got back from a trip from the US to Germany to UK and back. I took AA on the flight from US to Germany. No problems with TSA at all, in fact they were very curious about whether it worked like they had heard. On the plane, one of the FA's had one also and told me to keep it on the down-low but to go ahead. They said that they put the rule in the Flight Mag to give them some authority to ask you to stop in case someone complains or some idiot lights an analog. He even invited me back to the FA's "nook" in the back of the plane so I could stay out of sight.
From Germany to UK I was on BA. No issue at all on that plane. Vaped openly and no one even seemed to care. All three airports didn't give me any problem either. I think that if you are prepared to explain what you are doing and don't get "flaunty" about it, you would do fine. But then again, I'm kind of an "out front" sort.
Good luck and Happy Vaping.

I traveled from nashville to afghanistan with stops in atlanta, Ireland, and Kuait. I vaped in every airport and every airplane to include the airforce c-17 on the last leg. no one ever said anything to me. the only thing I did to hide the vape on the flights was blow down, it didn't hide it completely but there was not a huge cloud over my head. only got 1 funny look from one of the Flight attendants, but when she saw what I was doing she just smiled. at all the airports I just got the usual questions. what it is, if I liked it and where I got it. no trouble at all and I never tried to hide and no one had ant issues with it.
