Travel and Vaping Nice comment from a TSA agent

[Astronomer]

I have been flying a LOT lately ( hopefully that will stop soon )

On this last trip from Sacramento to St Louis I had an agent say something funny.

When I put my eGo Kit in the tub to go though the X-ray I had been unzipping it and laying it open for them to see everything inside it. The TSA agent told me that was unnecessary and advised me to zip it closed as they have seen a LOT of them and know exactly what they are. She smiled and said, I wouldn’t want you to get it dirty, so leave the case zipped up.

I worry less about flying with it now.

Last time I was through Kennedy was the first time I got a reaction that I've read on here quite a bit. The TSA agent asked me about it, I explained what it was, and he called a coworker over so I could explain and demonstrate it for the coworker. He was pretty excited.

When I returned to Belize 4 weeks ago I had no problems at either Philly or Miami airports and was amazed that the customs agent in Belize knew what it was and asked if it was really any good.
