We have all been there and the TSA has found that certain devices have gone on to be “unwanted” in our bags. There is no particular reason why we have these unwanted electronic goods in a bag. Sometimes, they are just left by accident or someone else accidentally dropped them in the bag.
No matter what happens if people find these things, you might get arrested for possession of marijuana or other drugs, and possibly a weapons charge too. It may also be worth checking into the possibility of a background check too. You can never really tell when anything goes wrong with this sort of thing, so you’d better make sure that the person who does this is looking out for your best interests.
You are not permitted to use electronic devices or vape while in flight, but you are permitted to bring them with you.There are some rules when you are on a plane. There is a difference between taking vapes in a hand carry bag and taking them in a checked one.
Carrying Vapes in a Handbag:
So you can take vapes and e-cig devices in a hand carry bag, but you can’t use them during the flight. If you are caught smoking on the plane, you will be charged heavily. The TSA allows you to pack vapes and other electronic devices in your carry-on bags so that they remain with you on the flight.
But the most important reminder is that you keep them in your bag and don’t take them out or use them. They should remain in your carry-on bag until you land. If the device is small, then keep it in your pocket; otherwise, store it in your hand carry bag.
Bringing Vapes in Checked Luggage:
According to the TSA’s mentioned rules, e-liquids are not allowed to be used during flight. They are not permitted in checked luggage, but they may be carried in a handbag.As per rules, passengers are allowed to take 3.4 ounces of liquid in their carry-on bag.
The reason you can’t put your vapes and other e-liquid in your checked luggage is that there is a risk of catching fire because of the batteries. And make sure to put vapes and liquids in a closed jar or a fine package so that they stay safe until you reach your destination.
Can you smoke in the waiting area of the airport?
The rules of airports and planes are different. You can’t smoke openly in the waiting area, but there are a few designated areas where you can smoke easily and freely. But the other areas are strictly prohibited.
So try not to smoke in the areas where it is mentioned not to smoke, otherwise you will get caught on cameras and be charged. Most airports don’t even allow smoking inside the airport, so you have to smoke outside the building.
Tips for travelling with vape devices
- If your devices use external batteries, then don’t forget to bring the charger, otherwise you will not be able to smoke.
- Remember to bring your extra batteries but always pack them safely to avoid any incident on the plane.
- Always carry disposable vaporizers with you if your trip is short. Because disposable vapes do not require any external battery, they are easy to carry and you don’t even need to pack a separate e-liquid for them.
- Fill the tanks of devices partially or leave them empty. Because if you fill the tank, the cabin pressure will make the tank liquid leak, and it will cause damage to the flight, plus it will be a waste of product.
Conclusions:
If you are willing to carry e-liquids and vapes on a flight, then you must keep a few factors that are important in your mind. All liquids, creams, and other products you carry must be in a 100ml bottle and must be wrapped in a plastic bag as per TSA rules.
If you do not follow TSA rules, all your products will be cancelled at the last moment. If you are bringing more than 100ml bottles of vape juice, then you have to put them in checked luggage. And there is no limitation on carrying liquids in a checked bag. So if you want to travel with vaping, you have to follow some rules.
