General rules for flying with vape stuff

Evening ECIGSSA

So I’m flying with TAAG airlines to Rio De Janeiro tomorrow afternoon and I wanted to ask if they allow passengers to travel with their vape in their hand luggage?

TIA
They should... read the first post of this thread.
 
Not that I know of. Probably what is reasonable for private consumption.
Only reason I asked is because I will need a supply for a couple of months and I will not have access to concentrates or mixing supplies til I have a job there to pay for it. I'll probably go all over the UK til I find a job there so most likely not to stay in one place for a while.

Unless I get a job offer before I arrive there.
 
Ok is there a limit on how many bottles you can take through Heathrow?

They apparently have a vaping zone now at gateway 4.

I could be wrong but I would think the e-liquid will be regulated the same as any other liquid in your hand luggage. You could probably have larger amounts in your checked luggage.

Edit: I found this article that should be helpful.
 
Hey all! I'm going to be flying from Gabarone to Cape Town and saw that e liquids with nicotine are illegal in SA.
I just got my breeze 2 and I would hate for my stuff and juices to be confiscated.
Can anyone tell me if it's safe to take e liquid with 6mg nicotine on an SA flight?
Thanks!

eLiquid with nicotine isn't illegal here. You won't have a problem.

Don't know who published such nonsense, but don't worry - nicotine is alive and well in SA. In fact, I would think that most vapers vape nic.

Welcome to the forum @SharkSam

I agree with the above posters - nicotine eliquids are fine and well here in SA.

Enjoy Cape Town!

PS - I like Gabs - have been there several times in the past 10 years for work. Such a friendly place with great people.
 
Hi. I have read through the complete thread. So my question is, can my attys go with checked luggage?
 
Morning.
So just for clarity here. Mods and batterys and 60ml juice per bottle in onboard luggage. Attys,charger and toolkit with checked in luggage. Not sure about the number of batterys u can take in onboard luggage. Mods will be in original packaging,so do i have to remove it out of box at security check?. Flying with Qatar via doha to uk.

Qatar airways is not problematic when it comes to vape gear. What I do, is keep the batteries inside the mods (the mods don't have to be in the original packaging.) You don't have to take them out at security checks. The acceptable bottle size varies with airports and airlines but, 60ml is ok for all...
 
Was under the inpression all batterys have to be removed from mods. So u saying mods can stay in bag and doesnt neeed to be taken out like a laptop for instance. What about the attys in checked in luggage?
 
I travel with all my vape setups assembled and batteries inside the mods. I usually store them in a hard case inside my hand luggage. Never took them out. Never had any problems
 
I would most definitely remove all batteries from all mods boss !!!

I kept my batteries in a plastic bag separate for all 4 of mine. Hasn’t been an issue so far going through jhb, stopover at Dubai and then Heathrow- not once was I asked to take my gear out for inspection except for checking in at jhb. That was 2 years ago on this day I arrived in the uk
 
Doesn’t matter where you put them but advise to keep in your carry on as airport staff treat your checked in luggage like trash bags on a bin day.
Plan is to put them in orginal boxes then bubble wrap them and into checked in luggage , all 12 of them.......

Good idea, but when stopped they might think you are moving new items and want an invoice for customs. Rather put it in something else that looks used.
 
So according to qatar airways, this is the batteries allowed. So in wich category is the 18650 and 21700 batteries. Screenshot_20210521_093313_com.android.chrome.jpg
