What to Consider When Holidaying with Your Vape

Vaping has seen immense popularity in recent years. Providing the same nicotine fix as a traditional cigarette, it is more affordable, offers plenty of variety when it comes to e-liquids, and doesn’t have a history of causing health problems like cigarette smoking does. With smoking being banned in so many public places these days, more people are turning to vaping. With the bounty of flavors available on the market, from Belgian cocoa to cookies and cream, you can try a different flavor depending on how your mood strikes you. As vaping continues to grow in popularity, traditional cigarette smokers are becoming a minority and many are making the switch to a healthier alternative.

Switching to vaping can be positive for your personal health too. When compared to cigarettes, some people notice a decline on their dependency of their personal vaporizer. There is more control of your nicotine intake, which results in fewer toxins and carcinogens entering your body. Plus, vaping is seen as the safer option to smoking and makes the transition away from cigarettes a lot easier.

Vaping is the most popular method there is to stop smoking here in the UK. Even the NHS endorses vaping and e-cigarettes to help smokers kick the habit, claiming they are more effective than nicotine patches and gum. As rules around vaping continue to evolve and it becomes more recognized as an alternative to smoking, more people will stop for good. With this comes the increased need for knowledge around what to do when it comes to traveling.

First and foremost, it is important to be aware of the rules and restrictions that comes with vaping. From preparing for travel, to flying on planes, to finally arriving at your final destination, how exactly do you manage your new habit taking all of this into consideration? Here, we have identified a few key points to consider before you take your vape on holiday, to ensure you start your holiday off on the right foot.

Hold vs. Hand Luggage?

Due to the possibility of a battery-operated vaporizer exploding or overheating and causing fire, it is no longer possible to store a vape in the hold. Instead, e-cigarettes, vape pens and any other electrically-powered nicotine unit must be packed in hand luggage and carried on-board the plane. To prepare for travel, detect the tank from the mod and store the tank in a transparent liquids bag along with the rest of your toiletries. Ensure the mod is switched off to prevent the button from accidentally being held down in your bag.

Can E-Liquids be Carried on-Board a Flight?

As with all liquids carried on-board flights, e-liquids and vapes are subject to the same security inspections. To clear the security inspection quickly, easily and without unnecessary stress, it is best to pack your liquids and clearomisers in separate, transparent bags. Wrap the clearomiser in tissue so the glass doesn’t become damaged and to also absorb any excess liquid which may leak.

What E-Liquid Equipment Should I Bring?

It’s always an excellent idea to stock up before you leave, particularly if are planning on being away from home for some time. By packing extra e-liquid as well as replacement coils, you will avoid the frustration that comes along with not being organized, as it can often be difficult to source these items when abroad, and substantially more expensive.

Can I Vape on the Plane?

Just with cigarettes, airlines forbid the use of e-cigarettes whilst flying. All types of vapes may set off the in-cabin smoke alarm, irrespective of the quantity of vapour that is emitted.

What is the safest way to travel with e-liquid juice bottles? As these bottles can expand during take-off caused by an increase in air pressure, the best way to avoid any disasters or mishaps is by traveling with bottles only half-filled. This way, the juice has room to expand during the flight.

The best advice to keep the tank from leaking is to bring an empty spare tank. However, if you do travel with a tank full of e-liquid, be sure to store the tank upside down during take-off to prevent spillage. In this way, the pressure is released from the tank and will help to avoid spills.

Conclusion

It is always advisable to check vaping regulations before setting off on a holiday, not only with the airline you will be traveling with but also the country you will be visiting. Also, an understanding of the rules of the country you are traveling to should be recognized to avoid any challenges about your personal vaping use.
