1. Welcome to Thailand Vapers, an English language forum for members in Thailand and the rest of Asia to talk about vaping.
    Commonly referred to as e-cigarettes, vaping is really about the use of personal vaporizers (mods) and atomizers (tanks, clearos, RBAs, RDAs, RTAs) filled with e-liquid.
    Are you looking to get started or an old hand at vaping? Everyone is welcome here so sign up today and talk vaping with us!

    Pack your juices & tanks in your checked luggage and your mods and any loose batteries in your carry on.

    I'd suggest emptying your tanks...they will leak at altitude due to the pressure change. You'll want to put them and your bottles of juice in plastic bags, too.

    If you bring a tank on the plane with you, turn it upside down and keep it in a plastic bag until you reach cruising altitude...that helps minimize the leakage.

    Safe trip mate!

    Usually 100 ml for carry-on...haven't flown in awhile so don't know if that's changed. I don't think there's a limit for checked luggage.

    Have a good trip, you shouldn't have a problem, they don't want to bother tourists.

    mate take your Veritas ... vape it dry (well you know what I mean - moist) before you go and then no leaks ... take a favourite tank as well, but empty (then you won't have any leaks)
    ... as soon as you arrive grab a small bott of yr favourite juice - and you can quickly put a few drops into the Veri, and you'll be able to have a quick vape as soon as you get out of the airport - that's what I did in HK on departure tho
    (ask the taxi nicely, & he'll prob let you vape on the way to the hotel if he's a smoker himself)
    easy
    just use a zip lock plastic bag to put no more than 100ml in each bottle and you can carry on or put in yr checked-in baggage
    **Updated**
    ooops, just realized it's David who has a Veritas ... anyway, if you have a dripper take it - very handy when travelling

    You're not suppose to do it but you can stealth vape in the toilet with no problem :) Not so important for short flight but anything more than 4-5hours flight, I'm happy to James Bond Vape in the sanitary ^^

    I think it depends on the type of smoke detector that's installed. On TG flights, I've vaped in the toilet...no clouds...hold it in for a long time and exhale slowly into the toilet. Almost no vapor comes out so no worries...YMMV.

    Well yeah don't fog the toilet, bro. Hold the smoke in you lungs and blow down to your feet. I can assure you it does not trigger the smoke detector :)
