Flying with ecig, Air Canada

[accord96]

As posted on their website, Air Canada does not allow carry on baggage to contain e cigs anymore... must be put in the checked luggage.

Just an fyi...

This is too bad. They put the e-cigs in the prohibited category together with hatchets, hunting knives, jackknives and meat cleavers. What is the danger of having e-cig in the carry-on?

"Captain, I am holding a personal veporizer in my hands. If you don't change the course from Toronto to Montreal, I'll vape!"

Just another reason to fly West Jet instead.

I haven't tested their policy on vaping, however, I was able to carry a fully charged m401 and a few carts in my jeans pocket throughout a domestic trip with them.

glad to hear there was no problem. I would just vape in the bathroom to keep it out of sight out of mind

Just an update.. look like Air Canada changed its policy and is now allowing ecigs on carry-on baggage http://www.aircanada.com/en/travelinfo/airport/baggage/carry-on.html

I think most planes have photoelectric smoke detectors in their restrooms. They basically go off when there is a reduction of light that hit the photocells in the device which can be caused by not only smoke, but vapour as well. So I'm not too sure if that would be a good idea

Yeah..Steve at PS tested it earlier this year and confirmed that PV's WILL definitely set off the alarm 8-o

Just got off 4 flights with Air Canada, no problems at all going through customs and such. No issues with vaping in the waiting areas, just inhaled extra deep and exhaled slowly so not a lot of vapor was floating around.

Didn't do it on a flight just to be safe.

did u just bring your e cig or did u bring liquids as well?

 

[accord96]

I just brought my ecig with me, and had to carts filled up. No problems at all with just the ecig, I just didn't want to risk any issues with the liquid.

Just got back from San Francisco with Air Canada yesterday.. i brought my PCC with 2 batteries, 10 carts, 4x 1dram bottles filled with 4 differents eliquids and pass the inspection without any problem or any questions asked.. they were mon interested by my Katana in my luggage i guess..

no problem at all so far

I secretly vaped in the plane, deep inhale, blow the vapor in my shirt.. no problem at all.

i am flying to hawaii next weekend and plan on bringning a 901 for me and one for my g/f. not wiling to test the bathroom sensors after a close friend that was a flight attendant for AC told me it is an emergency descent to 5000Ft . this is the only plan of action even for false allarms she says.

that worrys the hell out of me so i think i will just splurge on a pillow and figure something out. or i will not vape.

Good plan. I imagine forcing a plane to do an emergency descent would put you in a whole new world of pain as a consequence

My central air was down this week and they just replaced the compressor today so I'm sitting back enjoying my new found ability to not melt
