Everything You Need to Know About Flying with a Vape

Can you bring a vape on a plane?

Yes, you can. The TSA requires that the lithium battery for the vape be packed in your carry-on bag.

Can you smoke vapes or e-cigarettes on a plane?

You cannot, under any circumstances, smoke or otherwise use vapes or e-cigarettes on the plane.

Will TSA take my vape out of my carry-on?

you can bring your vape or electronic cigarette with you when you travel on a plane, and you are actually only allowed to pack it in your carry-on, not your checked luggage.

"Passengers are required to take effective measures for preventing accidental activation of the heating element of the device when transporting the devices," the TSA website states.

Each lithium ion battery must not exceed a Watt-hour (Wh) rating of 100 Wh; or, for lithium metal batteries, a lithium content of two grams. You can pack up to 100 ml of vape refill liquid in your carry-on. An excess of 100 ml of liquid will need to be packed in your checked luggage.

How do I safely pack my vape in my carry-on?

As stated above, the batteries for the devices cannot exceed a Watt-hour rating of 100 Wh if they are a lithium ion battery. For lithium metal batteries, they can't contain more than two grams of lithium. If you aren't sure of that information, you can check the details, which should be written somewhere on the battery itself, or in the manufacturing information included with the vape itself.

Here are a few ways to ensure that your vape and its batteries are prevented from accidentally activating, from the FAA:

Remove the battery from the electronic smoking device Separate the battery from the heating coil Place the electronic smoking device into a protective case Use a protective cover, safety latch, or locking device on the electronic smoking device's heating coil activation button

Most of us won't get lucky enough to have a retired firefighter on our next flight, so when you are packing your carry-on, make sure you double-check the FAA's guidance on how to do so safely and also contact your airline to see if there are any special instructions they have for you.

Can you pack THC or CBD oils?

The legality of THC varies in every state. But federally, "marijuana and certain cannabis infused products, including some Cannabidiol (CBD) oil, remain illegal under federal law except for products that contain no more than 0.3 percent THC on a dry weight basis or that are approved by FDA." So unless you are certain that your product fits those requirements, it is probably safer to leave it at home.

It is important to note that "TSA security officers do not search for marijuana or other illegal drugs, but if any illegal substance is discovered during security screening, TSA will refer the matter to a law enforcement officer." That means TSA is not actively seeking out your THC oils. Do with that information what you will.

"Whether or not the passenger is allowed to travel with marijuana is up to law enforcement's discretion," TSA spokesperson Lorie Dankers said.

Can you bring a vape on international trips?

At least 34 countries have banned the sale of e-cigarettes, according to a 2023 World Health Organization report. Vapes are allowed on international flights when you are traveling to a country where they are legal. If you are traveling to a country where vapes are not legal, you'll need to research the specific policies regarding visitors bringing vapes, broken down by Reuters.

Should you report someone for smoking a vape on an airplane?

A question posed by a curious Redditor poses some interesting ethical questions for passengers. What should you do if someone on your flight is smoking a vape and you notice it? Should you tell a flight attendant? Should you completely ignore it? The consequences for being caught smoking on an airplane are pretty severe—according to Flight Rights, you can be fined or even imprisoned by the federal government—so it can be anxiety-inducing to involve yourself in a situation where someone could face legal repercussions.

But smoking was banned on flights for a reason, and if the vaping is bothering you or is happening in a clearly noticeable way, there are a few ways you could handle it. According to other Redditors, discretely informing the flight attendant is the best way to operate—the flight attendant will be trained to handle the matter without escalating the problem. You can also try asking the person who is using the vape to stop.

"I think first I'd gently remind the other passenger that vaping is not permitted on board," one Redditor suggested. "If she fights back, then you explain you don't want to be near the vapor and call over a FA."

Some Redditors who claimed to be flight attendants shared that their approach to the situation is to confiscate the vape for the duration of the flight and then return it to the passenger upon disembarking.
