Getting nervous about my vacation how did your flight go?

[Steampocalypse]

Nothing to worry about stevegmu.

I've flown from the Bay to all over the states with no problems with my vape gear in my carry on. I kept all of my juices, batteries, and empty PVs in separate zip lock bags. When going through the scanner, I dump my zip lock bags in a separate bin with my laptop. Those TSA guys really aren't so bad as long as you make their job as easy as possible. One thing I would say though is double check your airport websites for guidelines, they make little changes all the time.

"It's cool man, that pipe bomb looking thing is my Bombshell Stinger personal VAPORIZER. Massive clouds!"... Don't say that.

I like this idea. Thats what I will do on my upcoming trip. Although I might put my juice in cosmetic bottles and stick it in with my toothbrush and deoderant.

I don't vape anymore since I switched to snus, but snus is an option for flights. I flew to Taipei last month and took snus along without any problems from TSA. There is a store locator on the General snus website to help you find someplace close that sells actual Swedish snus. Or you can use the link below. I wouldn't recommend using American snus. Too sweet and not enough nicotine to curb cravings. Good luck!

I lived in Philly for a few years and that was my home airport. Just do what I said earlier in this thread and you will be fine. I've never had any problems going through security nor had problems respectful vaping in the airport. I will be flying back there in October for a friends wedding.

Used snus (the real swedish stuff) once or twice, it just taste so bad (like licking on the business end of an analog). Also very bad in terms of mouth ulcers and mouth and throat cancer.

I'd like to see some data to back up these statements. Everything I've read about Swedish snus states there is no increased risk of oral or Esophageal Cancer from it's use. There is also no data that I've read that supports your claim about mouth ulcers while using Swedish snus. Maybe you are confusing Swedish snus with dip or chewing tobacco which uses a vastly different curing process than snus. Snus also has quite a few different variations to choose from if you don't appreciate a pure tobacco taste. Mint, cinnamon, and liquorice to name a few. If you have the data to back up your claims, please provide a link. I'd be interested in reading it. For those who might be interested in Swedish snus I've provided a link to a report filed in 2010 that examined several studies of snus and it's effects. You can also stop by the smokeless tobacco threads here on the forum if you have any questions. Lots of veteran snus users that frequent this thread with plenty of knowledge and experience. Link is below the one for the report.

Well I stand corrected, the info I read a while ago was related to chewing tobacco. Didn't realize it was more connected to curing process and excluded snus. Learn something new everyday.

The taste is still not for me, tried the normal and mint flavoured.
