Understanding Delta Airlines’ policies for electronic cigarettes ensures a smooth travel experience. Current regulations prioritize safety and compliance with federal aviation rules.
Carry-on Luggage
- Permitted: All e-cigarettes, vape pens, mods, atomizers, and e-liquids.
- Containers: E-liquids must follow TSA liquid rules (containers ≤100ml/3.4oz inside a quart-sized transparent bag).
- Batteries: Must be carried in your carry-on. Spare batteries require protective cases/covers to prevent short-circuiting.
Prohibited Items & Actions
- Checked baggage: Absolutely no e-cigarettes or vaping devices allowed due to fire risks from lithium batteries.
- Charging: Never charge devices onboard aircraft or at airport gates.
- Onboard usage: Vaping or charging during any Delta flight is strictly banned per FAA regulations. Penalties may apply.
Key Compliance Notes
Always keep devices in “off” mode with batteries separated. Verify specific country regulations when traveling internationally. Delta follows IATA guidelines – devices with damaged batteries or leaks will be denied boarding. Safety inspections by TSA may require additional screening of e-cigarette items.
