Yes, in most cases you are allowed to take a RandM Vape in your carry-on luggage. It should almost never be in your checked luggage, because devices with lithium batteries are considered a safety risk in the cargo hold. You are not allowed to use it on board. If you want to get a quick overview of which models you have with you before your flight, feel free to check it on the homepage.
The most important things in brief
- Carry-on luggage: mostly allowed
- Checked luggage: generally prohibited
- Use on board: prohibited, even in the lavatory
- Liquid rules: only if you also have liquid bottles with you, the usual liquid rules apply (100 ml per container, in a 1-liter bag)
Why vapes are not allowed in checked luggage
Vapes contain lithium batteries. In the cargo hold, batteries can become more dangerous in case of a malfunction (damage, short circuit, overheating) because crew and passengers cannot intervene immediately. Therefore, airlines and safety regulations almost always require: battery devices belong in carry-on luggage.
What is allowed in carry-on luggage and what is not
Taking the vape with you
- Carry-on luggage: generally okay
- Checked luggage: avoid, very often prohibited
Use on the plane
Vaping is almost always prohibited on board. This also applies to taking short, "inconspicuous" puffs and in the lavatories. The risk is not only trouble but also expensive consequences.
Liquid and accessories
If you only have a disposable vape with you, it's usually uncomplicated. If you also carry liquid bottles, spare pods, or other accessories with liquid, the usual liquid rules apply at the security check.
How to pack your vape correctly
1) Secure against accidental activation
Store the vape in such a way that nothing continuously presses on the mouthpiece. No "squeezed position" in your pocket or between a power bank and keys.
2) Observe temperature and pressure
In airplanes and on the way to the gate, there are temperature changes. If you are sensitive to condensation, it helps not to let the vape get ice cold and not to store it loosely with strong-smelling items in the bag.
3) If you have liquid bottles with you
Pack them in a zip bag. Not because of panic, but because pressure and movement can promote small leaks, and you don't want any hassle with sticky luggage.
What is important for stopovers, transfers, and the destination country
- Airport rules: Some airports have designated smoking areas, others are strict.
- Destination country: In some countries, vapes are more heavily regulated or treated differently. Inform yourself in advance if you are traveling outside the EU.
Common mistakes that cause unnecessary trouble
- Leaving the vape in the suitcase because "you won't use it anyway"
- Taking "just a quick puff" on the plane
- Transporting liquid bottles without a bag
- Not checking airline notices briefly before the flight
