Going to be flying soon myself and was wondering about this. What is the limit on bottles of liquid? Is a 30ml bottle ok to take with or do I need smaller bottles? I plan on just bringing my Itaste VV, charger, some bottles of liquid and a few Clearo's. Would I be OK taking all that in my carry on bag?
This a kind of old thread. I got back from cruize about a month ago. The main thing you need to know is that all of your batteries need to be in your carry on...if not they can possibly be confiscated. So anything with a battery your MVP2, 18350's, etc need to be in your carry on.
You can put any amount of liquid that you want in the stow away. I suggest packing them in individual zip lock bags in case one leaks/bursts. Also squeeze a bit of air out and then screw on the lid. The liquid/bottle can expand at high altitudes so if you squeeze a bit of air it gives some room to expand.
For your carry on you can have any size bottles that you want as long as all of your liquid fits in a
1 QUART zip lock bag. So cologne, sun tan lotion, shampoo, e-liquid, etc all has to fit in this. It doesn't matter if it's 10 ml, 30 ml, or 160 ml containers. Again you can put these in your stow away if you want. I also put any tanks, clearomizers, etc that weren't empty into this bag.
I hadn't been on flight since 9/11 and was a little worried about it but at each security checkpoint, scanning of bags, all I got asked was do you have e cigs in their. I said yes and that was it.
I also had 2 roles of 10 mini-fling disposables. So besides my other batteries 20 extra disposable batteries showed up on their x-ray machine.
That should be about all you need to know about packing.
As for vaping most airlines
do not allow it. Most airports do. But you'll need to check with which airports or which airline's your using. To be honest I did it on the plane and the airports but I was just super discrete about it and never asked anyone. I don't normally use disposables but they are good on trips. I held the fling mini disposable with a closed fist so that maybe a centimeter popped out. I held the vape in for a good 30-45 seconds and then acted like I was coughing or slightly blowing into my elbow sleeve. No one ever said a thing. You can probably get away with more in an airport and if they don't allow it they'll probably just ask you to stop. I'm not sure about in a plane when in the air though so do that at your own discretion. I was in window seat for all flights and wife was sitting next to me so I had a buffer from other passengers really looking at me.
The cruise line we went on did not allow ecigs except for in designated smoking areas. My disposables and ego's I used pretty much anywhere...but again did discretely when no one was around or would notice. One person at the pool area did notice and asked me what it was. I politely explained what it was and said I wouldn't do it if it offended her in anyway. She told me no it was bothering her and she didn't smell anything so it wasn't bothering her. She even asked where to get some as her parents are smokers. I gave her a little speel about gas station disposables, blus, and ego's. I told her to start with a ego for her parents as most people upgrade or find the disposables/blu's unsatisfying or junk. Not sure how much of that conversation sunk in but I just practiced my stealth vape so others wouldn't notice.
In the casino they allowed smoking. I did break out my vamo for a few hours on a couple of nights there. Surprisingly not a whole lot of looks or questions. One guy with an ego or evod came up to me and asked what it was. He liked the fact that you could change out the battery with a spare precharged one. He only had 1 and was unhappy about it running out of battery. I told him when using those you need at least 2 so that one is charging all the time and the other one use for vaping. Then if it runs out you always got one fully charged. So I think he was going to get another ego/evod or look into one with spare batteries.
All in all it was all positive and never had displeasure or evil looks from anyone. Again I tried to be as discrete as possible except for in the casino with my vamo.
