Hello fellow vapers,
Today I want to clear up a common question: Can you take electronic cigarettes on a plane? The short answer is yes, but there’s a catch - you can’t use them on board!
Why you can bring them:
They’re allowed: Aviation rules allow electronic cigarettes to be taken on board as part of your hand luggage. This means you can have them with you during the flight.
Battery safety: Make sure e-cigarettes are properly protected to prevent accidental activation. If they have removable batteries, they must be carried separately and protected from short circuits.
Why you can’t use them:
Smoke detectors: Airplanes have sensitive smoke detectors. Using an e-cig could set off these alarms, causing serious disruption and potential safety issues.
Health and safety: Although e-cigarettes don’t produce smoke like traditional cigarettes, they still release vapour that can affect air quality in the confined space of an aircraft.
Legal restrictions: Using e-cigarettes on an aircraft is considered a violation of aviation safety regulations and can result in hefty fines or even arrest.
Tips for travelling with e-cigarettes:
Check the rules: Different airlines may have slightly different policies, so it’s always a good idea to check with your specific airline before you fly.
Pack carefully: Make sure your e-cigarettes and any spare batteries are securely packed in your hand luggage to avoid any accidents.
In conclusion, you can take your e-cigarettes on to the plane, but using them is a big no-no. Let’s all do our bit to keep flights safe and comfortable for everyone
