and not once did I have a craving for a cig. Made the flight much more pleasant.

I went from Auckland New Zealand to Vancouver Canada with an ego-t battery and a vivi nova. The security people picked it up and looked at it after it went through xray, but didn't even ask me about it.

On the plane, at first I was hiding it under my blanket while I stealth vaped, but after awhile I was doing it in the open, although I wasn't blowing great plumes of vapour (just the occasional wisp would escape.) I wasn't questioned by airline staff or passengers, although it might have helped having a guy in the next seat who had pretty much passed out judging by the amount of alcohol I could smell lol Happily my vaping helped cover some of that smell.

I flew Air New Zealand, and I'm not sure where I read it, but someone said they had emailed Air NZ asking about their ecig policy and they were told they weren't allowed. I figured I'd try it and if someone had told me to, I'd have stopped, but no one did. It was so nice not having a nic fit for the entire trip like I usually do.

Cool Mokai. Can't say I've tried vaping on Air NZ yet. Hope you enjoy Canada - you might get a white Christmas there, while we loll about under the pohutakawa trees. :)

Yes, I'm aware of the weather there right now, my roomies email me and gloat every day. Trust me, I didn't come here at this time of year for the weather lol A white Christmas would be nice as long as it's only on Christmas day and then melts shortly after. My philosophy on snow is that it belongs on the mountains and anyone who wants it can drive to it, it shouldn't come down here :p

It's white in White Rock right now, haven't seen snow stick here for the last 3 years. It's nice, maybe it'll really seem like Christmas.

Wow, in White Rock? I'm in Pitt Meadows and the only snow I've seen here so far is a dusting on the Golden Ears the other day. Hope we don't get any either although it's pretty bloody cold. My sister lives in White Rock and comes back from Mexico on Saturday, so I'm sure she'll be thrilled if there's still snow there lol

Cyclone Evan that hit Samoa is now hitting Fiji. We may get some backlash from it here but should be ok. So it's fingers crossed on the Christmas weather here too.
