Top 10 Travel Tips
Planning a trip abroad this summer? Here are
some things you need to know about taking
your vape on a plane.
1. Vapers, on a whole, can take their devices on
airplanes with them, but rules vary depending on
the length of your flight and the vape regulations
in your destination. Check with the airline you
are flying with first, but some airports, such as
Gatwick in London, state that e-cigarettes are
prohibited from hold luggage.
2. Just like smoking, vaping is prohibited on
commercial flights, with one exception –
Ryanair sell their own smokeless cigarettes for
passengers to use whilst cruising the skies.
3. When it comes to taking your own e-cigarette
on a flight it is best to dismantle the device and
store it safely in a case for protection. The last
thing you want after a long flight is to find that
turbulence has caused your vape any damage
4. Lithium batteries have been explicitly
forbidden from hold luggage globally due to fire
safety regulations so make sure if you are taking
these with you, they are packed accordingly and
kept in your carry-on bag.
