If you vape and are about to travel, you might want to know if you can take your e-cigarette with you on an airplane. Although everything may depend on the airline, most of them will let you take your e-cig in your carry-on luggage but not in your checked luggage.
In most cases, you will be able to carry a vape in your carry-on luggage, but not in your checked luggage. E-cigarettes contain lithium-ion batteries and can sometimes catch fire. Fires are easier to put out if they occur in the cabin, so all lithium-ion batteries and electronic cigarettes or vaporizers cannot be stowed in checked baggage.
Obviously there is that, you will not be able to use your vape during the flight when you are on board, it is best to keep it with you in your carry-on bag at all times otherwise you could be reprimanded.
On the other hand, the battery is best turned off if possible. It is also recommended to empty the vaporizer tank, as changes in cabin pressure can cause leaks.
Vape juice should be treated like any other liquid. That means you can't take containers larger than 3.4 fl. oz. or 100 ml. Liquids should be kept in a clear plastic zippered bag along with your shampoo, perfume, etc.
In summary, you can bring the following items on an airplane
- E-juice: in carry-on and checked luggage.
- Vape box mods: carry-on only.
- Vape batteries: carry-on, sometimes checked (depends on the airline).
- Vape battery charger: carry-on only.
