So, I had this trip coming up, right? And I’m a bit of a vaper, nothing too crazy, but I do enjoy my Geek Bar. But here’s the thing – I wasn’t sure if I could bring it on the plane. I mean, it’s got a battery and all that, and airports can be pretty strict about those things.
First, I did a bit of digging online. It seemed like most people were saying you could bring it, but only in your carry-on. That’s because of the lithium battery – apparently, they’re not a fan of those in checked baggage, something about fire risks. Makes sense, I guess.
Next, I decided to check the airline’s website. They had this whole section on what you can and can’t bring. And sure enough, vaping devices were on the list. They said the same thing: carry-on only. They also mentioned separating the battery if you can, but since Geek Bars are disposable, that wasn’t really an option for me. I should just bring it in the original package.
So, the day of the flight comes, and I’m at the airport. I’ve got my Geek Bar in my carry-on, tucked away in a little pocket. I go through security, put my bag on the conveyor belt, and wait. I’m kind of nervous, not gonna lie, it just like a metal bar and will they misunderstand or what. But then, my bag comes out the other side, and nobody says anything. Success!
Once I was on the plane, I made sure to keep the Geek Bar in my bag. I know you’re not supposed to use them on the plane, and I definitely didn’t want to cause any trouble. I just wanted to have it with me for when I landed.
I even asked the flight attendant just to double-check. She smiled and said it was totally fine as long as I kept it packed away. She probably gets that question a lot, I bet.
- Keep it in your carry-on.
- Don’t even think about putting it in your checked luggage.
- You can’t use it on the plane.
- And if you can take the battery out, do it. But for Geek Bars, that’s not something you can do.
- Better in the original package.
So, there you have it. You can bring a Geek Bar on a plane, just make sure you follow the rules. It’s actually pretty simple, and you don’t worry that much. Keep it in your carry-on, don’t use it during the flight, and you’re good to go. I made it to my destination without a hitch, Geek Bar in hand, ready to enjoy it after a long flight.
I’m really glad I did my research beforehand. It saved me a lot of stress and potential hassle at the airport. Hopefully, my little adventure helps some of you out there who might be wondering the same thing.
