i work for the TSA *normally speaking* you can bring you PV in you carry on, if your a nice person you will take it out place it in a bin with other pocket items, so if the TSO wants a second look they just pull the bin out look down. Some TSO's are a little uneducated on PV's and would like to learn or make sure what your bringing is safe. Most airports (some being different) allow vaping inside, but please don't blow huge clouds of vape most people have poor vision and will think you are smoking and, well, you know what will happen after that. quart size baggie your liquid with all other various toiletries and you will enjoy a speedy screening provided the lines of course... also the FAA doesn't allow vaping on planes cause there is no ventilation on the plane and if you are vapping everyone is too including little 3 year old sally jobob or whatever. Vapor does dissipate but the particle float around the plane Vs. an conditioned building where stuff gets moved outside.

Just back from hopping around the country for two weeks. First time with EGO batts and Kanger T2's. Last few times were with disposables only.
I packed my liquids in 10 ml plastics, my charger and spare batts in my checked luggage. Carried two filled setups in my shirt pocket.
Just put them in the tray along with your wallet, belt, shoes, etc.

No issues in multiple airports. I think they have been trained and know what they are. Would recommend against vaping in flight. Most airlines now include E-Cigs as part of their no smoking warning. Plus if any ANTZ folks see you the fall out could be huge.
If you must, go to the rest room, lock the door and stealth it a couple of times.

Don't forget the ziplock bags for all things packed and it wouldn't hurt to wrap it in tissue or paper towel in case anything leaks. The paper will help absorb the fluid.

Thanks. I may just put everything in checked luggage. I won't need it on the plane anyway.

Side question, has anyone ever vaped in an airport? Do you go to the smoking area or?

Heck no. I vape at the gate or food court and never have had an issue. I don't blow huge clouds of vaper either being as I believe it's best to vape openly but respectfully.
