The future of marijuana vaporization has arrived, and it’s legal in many states now. However, there’s still a lot of confusion on whether or not marijuana vaporizers are allowed on airplanes.
The answer is: maybe, and it depends on the individual airline policies and the country you’re flying to.
There are several ways to use marijuana in public, but the most famous is to eat it. However, there are also different ways to smoke it, including vaporizing it in a vape pen.
People who don’t like to take their medicine in the form of food can opt for vaporization instead, and it’s not just for veterans.
Vaping is most likely allowed on planes, as long as there is no banned substance. However, this is not the case for weed vape pens as it can be considered illegal.
Many states have legalized the use of marijuana for recreational and medical use. As a result, many people use vaporizers to smoke marijuana.
Many consider this healthier than smoking normal cigarettes.
How do you take a vape on a plane?
The best way to transport a vaporizer on a plane is to pack it into a checked bag. Some airline staff allow you to carry e-cigarettes and vape pens in your carry-on luggage but you should check with your airline rules.
A vaporizer is a device that heats or vaporizes a material to produce a plume of vapor that you inhale. The best vaporizers for you will depend on what you want to vaporize, and who you are.
There are three major types of vaporizer:
- Dry herb vaporizers
- Oil vaporizers
- A hybrid of both
Dry herb vaporizers are the most popular, as they are discreet, easy to use, and produce vapor that is pure enough to be inhaled without any lingering odor.
Oil vaporizers are a great choice for people who want to avoid any odor with their vapor, as oils, such as marijuana, do not smell.

Is it legal for me to fly with medical marijuana?
As you can probably guess, the medical marijuana legalization movement has been gaining ground over the last few years.
This is awesome news for anyone who believes that everyone deserves the right to control their own health choices and that no illegal drug should be made.
But medical marijuana patients are not the only ones who want to smoke a joint, and many of them do not have health conditions that might allow them to do so.
With over half of the US states allowing medicinal marijuana use, the US Federal Government is ultimately the sole arbiter for carrying medicinal marijuana on a plane.
And while the US Federal Government has yet to make a firm ruling on the subject, various airlines have taken different approaches on this issue.
For instance, Delta Airlines has banned cannabis vape devices use on its aircraft and will not allow them in their cabins.
On January 1, 2018, the new federal level government came into power, and one of its first acts was to give the medical marijuana movement a huge boost.
Under the new laws, the Canadian government has approved the use of medical marijuana for patients that suffer from a number of ailments, such as severe pain, epilepsy, and muscle spasms.
If you are traveling with medical marijuana, you may not have to worry about being arrested, as long as you are in possession of the proper amount of the drug.
This means that you may be able to fly with your medical marijuana (provided that you have the proper documentation) as long as you are flying within Canada.
What happens if you leave a vape in a checked bag?
If you’re traveling with vaping gear, then you probably know how terrifying it can be to leave your vape in a checked bag.
The last thing you want is for a TSA agent to open your bag in the security line, identify your vape, and confiscate it.
However, there is a way around this: you can check your vape as a carry-on baggage item. The only downside to this is that you will need to be aware of some airport authorities regulations.
Checking a vaporizer in your luggage is not recommended as vaporizers are considered electronic devices which are not allowed on flights.
If a vaporizer is discovered, TSA will test it and place the material in a holding area under the control of the TSA.
If the substance is deemed a threat, the vaporizer and accompanying material will be confiscated and the owner will be subject to a civil penalty of $1,977.
To make sure that your vape stays safe at your destination.
There are four steps you should take to avoid spillage:
- Check the vape for any broken pieces or loose pieces before you pack it up, to avoid damaging it.
- Wipe the vape thoroughly with a clean cloth, and place it in a little bag or pouch to avoid it getting dirty.
- Carry it in a carrier bag or something similar that won’t get crushed or damaged.
- Place it in your checked bag.
What narcotics do the dogs at the airport smell?
Drugs that dogs can smell when they are trained, will be the same drugs you will smell if you vape. This is because the drugs you will smell depend on the drugs that you vape.
The dogs at U.S. airports are trained to smell five different narcotics, these are:
- marijuana
- cocaine
- heroin
- methamphetamine
- ecstasy
As you may know by now, there are many vapers who work at airport security staff. They are there to check luggage, work security, and generally act as a ‘gate’ for passengers.
The dogs are trained to sniff these vapers and smell the e-juice in their luggage.
When you get on the plane, how do you use the vape pen?
What is a vape pen? A vape pen is a battery-powered vaporizer that, with the use of a refillable liquid vape cartridges, produces a vapor that can be inhaled.
There are a number of different types of vape pens on the market today; some dry herb vape pens are made for dry herb (also known as weed), while others are for electronic cigarettes liquids.
Some expensive vape pen have a built-in atomizer, and others use atomizers that attach to the vape cartridge’s mouthpiece.
Many people are under the false impression that vaping on the plane will land you in trouble with the FAA.
However, this is not the case. The rules and regulations regarding the use of vaporizers are quite clear:
- If you are flying with only a personal vaporizer, you will not be subject to any increased security or inspection, since the device is considered personal.
- If you are flying with a vaporizer with power over 2.5 watts, it is likely that you will be required to check your device, since the law considers the device a power plant.
- If you are flying with a vaporizer with power over 5 watts, your vape will be considered a device “for professional use”.
