Flying and Boston

[Defiantgroundhog]

I know this topic has been discussed many times before. I'm really anxious about losing my stash though.
I'm planning a trip to the east coast in about a month and a friend of mine told the security in Boston is insane. Does anyone have experience with this airport? Should I just try to avoid it? I can find a way around but not sure if it's worth it. I don't fly that often (once every two years) so any comfort and advice you can give will be greatly appreciated!!!

I've only heard one bad story so far. I've flown to Fla. & Mexico with my ecig stuff in my carry on. No problem. I only took carts though, no juice. I've seen a lot of posts where people flew with no problem.

Thanks, yeah I've read where most don't have issues with flying... I am planning on taking juice though and like I said that friend of mine made such a HUGE deal out of Boston airport I was hoping there was someone one here who had experience with that specific one.
I'm sure it'll be fine... just a scary thought having my batts and juice taken away

I'm from MA, and I've never had a problem with Logan air port, though sometimes I find it easier to fly into TF Green in Rhode Island and drive up.

I'd make sure the juice is in your checked luggage.

I fly into and out of Boston Logan almost every week. Logan has installed the back scatter devices and it's now part of the normal security screening. Logan does make you take everything out of your pockets before you get in front of the back scatter.

I take four batteries and a dozen cartos in my laptop bag through security every week without problems. I've had more problems going through Cinci than I have Logan.

I put juice in my 1 quart baggy and it's never been flagged.

I live in Boston and have flown out of Logan a slew of times. It's really nothing different from any other airport (except it's slower, blllahhh).

Never even been asked about ecig stuff by anyone at Logan. Generally, I pack mainly carts and batteries in my carry on and try to put juice in my suitcase so I don't even bother having liquid in my carry on to mess with.

You're fine. Hit me up when you get here!

Heading to South Padre here in a few weeks.. I was just going to mail myself juice and take my batts & cartos on the plane. Sounds like I can forgo the mailing and just put my juice in my luggage. Cool!

I have flown several times with 2-3ml bottles of liquid ( sometimes 2 or 3 bottles ) in my carry on zip lock, along with other "liquids", they just seem to blend in with the mouthwash, perfume, eye makeup remover, and any other small liquids I have.

Never had a problem with batts and/or carts either... just put them in my bag or purse, no problem.

I have even had the pv I was using (keeping handy) and put it in the little tray for all your pocket stuff.

Chargers and extra batteries in checked bags if I check a bag, otherwise in carry on also.

never had a problem yet, and in my case, not even a curious look or question.

I don't check luggage... yes I'm one of those

I will do the quart baggie thing then which I figured I was going to have to do. Thanks for the replies guys I feel much better now.

I'm actually headed to Providence and it seems flying into Boston and driving is the easiest.
