    So vaping on flights is banned ... one question ... whats the matter with you?  I suspect if your ever caught you risk being charged and possibly banned from flying... Is the reward worth the risk?
    i don't know. something is definitely the matter with me though
    It seems that is a risk not worth taking if you depend on flying ...

    I for one don’t need any other herbs or anything to put me in my comfort zone , I grow my own, smoke my own , make my own butter for edibles make my own tincture & hash with the by product of the plant matter that is not for smoking...

    As someone that flies I think it sucks that you are bringing and using that fire hazard on the plane

    i tried it a little over a year ago on a trip to Indiana.  a friend had some capsules of it that he made from the powder.  I took 4 pills before going to the airport.  I ended up getting extremely disoriented and lost my wallet somewhere in the terminal.  i barely made my flight...maybe be careful with it.
    Maybe immediately prior to going to the airport is not the best time to experiment with new substances..... ;). 
    Oh, how times have changed.  I knew this guy back in my college days who took a commercial flight back to NYC.  I asked him how the flight went and he said, "It was great.  I smoked a joint in the bathroom after the 'fasten seat belts' sign went off.  It was the best flight I've even been on!"   Well, hey, that was also back in the day when smoking was allowed in the back of the plane.  No shit.
    its even better now with vape pens.  you can smoke in any seat.
    You don't do that in a closed area around other people...

    fine, i wont again.  but, explain to me why its a problem.  sure, theres a lithium-ion battery involved which could explode.  but, phones, laptops etc all have bigger batteries that have been known to "explode" on occasion.  there is no smoke, but a fast disappearing vapor.

    If weed isn't enough, mushrooms are pretty safe to use and they pack one hell of a punch!  
    In the right conditions you could have the most euphoric and profound experience of your entire life.
    You also could freak the fuck out and suffer PTSD like symptoms for weeks, months, or even years afterwards lol

    That's the nature of doing drugs, that walking the fine line between altering thought patterns in delightful or regrettable ways...

    I thought airlines banned vaping??

    They may have banned actually smoking from them in airports and planes (I don't know one way or the other), but you're free to carry them onto the plane with you. You just can't put them in checked bags.

    Last few times I’ve flown the safety announcement has included no vaping, along with the obligatory no smoking. The equipment is not banned, but using it is, just like you can take cigarettes in your carry on.

    Fair enough (I'm sure many people get away with it anyhow, since it's largely undetectable). I'm surprised so many people in this thread seem to think that a vape pen is dangerous material that isn't allowed on planes, lol. Hey folks, you know people are allowed to carry lighters onto planes too, right? ;)

    Well, my main point is that these types of things can cause fires.  On a plane I don;t like that.  I understand your point re:phones (which some were BANNED after there was an issue) and laptops...but there are some differences...

    "Specifically, it’s e-cigarettes’ lithium-ion batteries that combust. These batteries are also found in laptops and cellphones. But with e-cigarettes, the batteries are especially prone to overheating because smokers use incompatible chargers, overcharge the e-cigarettes, or don’t take sufficient safety precautions. For example, many e-cigarettes are made to plug into a USB port, which smokers may take to mean the devices can be safely charged with a computer or iPad charger. But if left too long in a common USB port, some e-cigarette batteries can fry."

    This also has some good info:     https://www.usfa.fema.gov/downloads/pdf/publications/electronic_cigarettes.pdf

    And there have been cases of people putting them in lockers, something pressing against them causing it to activate and a fire occurs.  I am not sure if this is still possible or the design had been changed.

    I'll go ahead and trust the judgements of those in charge of aviation safety, if they don't see a need to ban then I'm not concerned.

    They've banned their use on the plane.  I trust them to.  Someone was talking about secretly using them on the plane.

    FYI - they are banned from many workplaces due to the locker issue.
