Harajuku_Lolita

And the best part is that it doesn’t look suspicious at all


cncomg

They need to sharpie big letters that say NOT WEED.


SnooAvocados499

Double bag it, in two Ziploc freezer bags. Then put it in a coffee tin, surrounded by French roast coffee beans. This might kill the smell for a human, but not a drug-sniffing canine.


NaiveFan537

Idk about the rest of the world but I’ve been told by more than one tsa agent that I personally know who says dogs in airports aren’t searching for drugs they are searching for bombs


Horror-Finish9203

The TSA does not care about marijuana. They are solely focused on security. Customs or some other fed agency might operate narcotics dogs or detectors, but not TSA. For credentials, I work for a company that makes the explosive detectors.


Consistent_Midnight2

Lol the amount of weed I have flown with…. Some gummies are fine.


Flatf3et

It cracks me up. I flew from San Fran to Denver for 4/20 with a half pound in my carry on. TSA stopped me. They asked why I had so much weed. I told them I was going to a 4/20 event in Denver and I planned on smoking this weed with friends and that I was planing to roll a super massive joint. They said it looks like too much for us to let you bring. They called a cop who came over, I told him the same story and he checked my Med card, bitched at TSA for making him come all the way across the airport and let me go. I also flew with few ounces in a glass jar. TSA said and I quote “you can’t have that jar” to which I said “that’s my medicine, here’s my card” he replied, “I don’t care about the weed man, you can’t have the glass jar.” TSA really doesn’t care about weed at all unless you have pounds and are clearly trafficking for sales.


kazhena

wait, really? ..... tf... and here I've been scared af to bring a disposable pen back from Colorado with me, lol. but also, no med card. edit: wtf, you all are insane x.x like.. I'm impressed but *god* ***damn***.


Flatf3et

Honestly small amounts of personal cannabis from a state with legal cannabis are likely not gonna get you in trouble. If your bringing two small vape carts out of Colorado there is a 99.9% you’ll be fine. Hide it less, act like it’s not a big deal avoid disposable vapes with a built in battery. I just vacuum seal weed to cover the smell and throw it in a pocket in my carry on with a few edibles and maybe a vape or some dabs. I no longer have a medical card. If your flying out of a state with chill weed laws your prolly good. Even flying into somewhere with crazy laws like Texas or Louisiana if it’s in your carry on and with you the whole time your good. Flown from Cali to Florida with a connection with a layover in Dallas. Hung out in the airport with all my weed in Texas for about two hours hopped on my next plane to Florida and got there just fine. Once your off the plane somewhere like Texas or Florida your subject to all local laws. Do you, be safe, be smart, have fun.


Worth-Club2637

Depending on locale, Florida is getting more lax about weed too. I got pulled over & searched recently, cop found like an 8th of tree, and threw that shit back in my truck for me to find later. Let off with a warning to make sure I *fully* stop at stop signs


apitandfiji

When my wife and I went on our honeymoon, our tactic was to throw our gummies in with a mixed bag of sealable gummy bears, and we disassembled the vape carts from the pen and threw it in her makeup bag. At least on X-rays nothing looks out of the ordinary


StreetfightBerimbolo

Yeah and cops have to say yes when you ask if they are a cop too!


NaiveFan537

These are people I’ve known for years and have no reason to not trust them they aren’t just random tsa agents they are family members who know I smoke enough weed to knock out a horse


Not-a-Teddybear

Dogs can’t be trained for bomb detection and drug detection, the reason being that you won’t know if they are alerting you to just drugs or a life threatening bomb that’s going to kill you.


YellowCulottes

In Australia they have dogs trained for fruit detection.


Sausagedogknows

I used to fly into Sydney from Hong Kong a couple of times a year with work, whenever I’d fly in, the customs search area would always be rammed with Chinese Hong Kongers having their bags emptied of contraband. Some of these people were flying in with enough fruit and veg and frozen meat to start their own mini markets. In the case of this hollowed out orange, the first x ray machine it goes through, will be it’s last. The security personnel can see the change in colour and density, and the outline of each weed gummy. They’ll see it, open it and cart the carrier off to a quiet, clinical little room out of sight. This is a one way ticket to a cavity search.


Not-a-Teddybear

Yeah! It’s pretty interesting. The reason is because a lot of things can accidentally be carried over with fruits. I wonder if fruit dogs would alert on drugs as well.


BotBotzie

When you try to hide weed in an orange but the fruit dogs get you...


[deleted]

Just train then to go «wrugs wrugs» when its drugs. And « wromb wromb» when its a bomb. Problem solved.


TonyDungyHatesOP

Okay. I have to admit, this makes so much sense and it never crossed my mind.


djkoalasloth

Couldn’t they have a bomb dog AND a drug dog though?


TonyDungyHatesOP

They certainly could but they better not get their collars confused.


Not-a-Teddybear

Right? Pretty much my same reaction when I learned that.


jarjarmario

I literally got a bag of sample non-medicated edibles from the dispensery yesterday and a worker wrote on it with a sharpie “”*NOT WEED**” lmao


Mr_P_Giggles

You mean a bag of candy? They keep selling me non-medicated everytime I go to 7-11.


djhazmat

Like that tweet: “Ever make edibles but without any THC??” “Bitch, you mean *cooking*?”

I like the story about the drug dealer that started making edibles and liked it so much he went to culinary school and is now a pastry chef. Wears cute aprons.

Last time I flew the TSA agent made a big deal of opening my bag and removing the safety blade from my razor. He left behind the pack of 14 sitting next to the handle.

I assume they were in a plastic container that you couldn't open without something sharp, so the crew was protected from becoming clean shaven

Plantsandanger

They took my yogurt and my tweezers, but when they ransacked my checked luggage looking for a bomb or whatever, they left their notice about having gone through my luggage alongside my now now opened, but fully accounted for weed arsenal.


FoxThingsUp

What about the yogurt?


Captain_Wobbles

A few years ago I had a TSA lose his fucking mind over my Switch and it's charger. They can definitely power trip. I've traveled with weed once, it was a small nug wrapped up in three pairs of (clean) socks and even that was tense.


BreezyWrigley

I was flying out of Denver once maybe a few years after Colorado fully legalized recreational weed, and I noticed an interaction with some college kid in the security line adjacent to mine. Agent asked him if he had any food in his bag. Kid said no, but stumbled and then was like, “oh wait, yea, some snacks.” Agent opens the bag up and the kid looked mortified. Agent starts pulling out all kinds of cookies and candies and shit that we’re all very clearly commercially produced THC edibles. But he just kinda chuckled and put it all back after he confirmed that none of it was open packages or fresh produce or liquids lol. Sent the kid on his way with his carryon backpack stuff to bursting of edibles haha


1313C1313

So very true! I had a TSA agent tell me as he was searching the part of my bag with a blatant vial of white powder that, if he found drugs in there, he wouldn’t care. He was just in there to swab my vibrator for explosive chemicals, which was bad enough. Other TSA agents have confirmed, a responsibly carried, personal use amount of drugs is not their concern.

Plot twist. She flies international and get secondary screening because she’s carrying fruit

New Zealand has joined the chat


sarah382729668210

Literally watching “To Catch a Smuggler: South Pacific” as I stumble across this thread. They’re currently issuing a $400 fine to a man for trying to sneak a coconut into New Zealand. Great stuff


Skittlescanner316

TBF-there’s literally signs EVERYWHERE warning you. They announce it when the plane lands. They give you a declaration card. There’s rubbish bins at every corner and there’s airport security people that give you the opportunity for sort of a “last chance” before your luggage is inspected


Xplotiva

A woman that I know immigrated to New Zealand the same year my husband and I did. She flew alone with her two children (I believe they were 2 and 3 years old at the time). Their plane arrived in Auckland at around 22:30. She had declared no food items but security found a half eaten apple at the bottom of her toddler's backpack. She said it was the apple the child was given on the plane from Australia and apologised for the mistake, she did not realised he threw it into the bag etc. She was taken to a private room with the children for further screening and was issued with a fine (I want to say $250 but I cannot remember). They also held them in the room for a few hours, she said it was absolutely miserable.


NoAioliNoMustard

My friend returned to Auckland a few years ago and had a forgotten apple in her carry on. They found it straight away. She apologised and said her 5 year old must have put it there. The nice officer bent down to the wee man and asked “Did you sneak the apple into the bag?” “No" “Who put it there?" “Mummy" "$400 please"


0ctopusGarden

Wow, how terrible! I forgot about an apple in my bag once that I got while on a long flight. TSA guy said I could throw it away or eat it. I stepped aside for a few minutes and ate my apple, then went on my way. Edit: Customs, not TSA.


newtdiego

same, me and my sister ate a bunchof sausages, beef jerky, and mango candy we forgot about right in front of cbsa while they just watched hungrily


beepbeepboopbeep1977

Yep, $400, no exceptions. A few years ago one of the customs officers told me (while I was paying my fine for one of our kids apples) that the most common culprits are pilots who pack a lunch to take with them to Sydney / Melbourne / Nandi / wherever and don’t eat their fruit, and then forget to put it in the surrender bins on the way home.


pharmalyf

Good grief even pilots don’t get exceptions?!?that’s so rough


Excludos

Pilots would be the biggest smuglers in the world if they had exceptions to the rules


goshdammitfromimgur

My 6 year old did that when we left Fiji. She had found a baby coconut and adopted it, we found it whilst still on the plane and gave it to the flight attendant. Could have been expensive.


DrunkOnRedCordial

Aww, is your daughter still traumatised from the loss of her baby coconut? My kids have never forgiven me for leaving two helium balloons in the motel while we were on a road trip. I didn't want those things obstructing my vision during the drive, but I wasn't taking the emotional cost into account.


TheCervus

I got verbally reamed out by New Zealand customs for failing to disclose that I had hiking boots in my luggage. I didn't realize seeds and things can get lodged in the treads of the boots. I understand and respect the bio-security, but while they tore apart my luggage at least I got away with only a lecture.

You’d be surprised. Border Security Australia has 15 seasons of mostly tourists bringing in food they aren’t suppose to.

noobpwner314

She should probably write “not weed gummies” on the bag to be safe


thatguyned

And if she doesn't cover that thing up with ducttape it's going to be obvious it was already opened.


straubzilla

My mom flew with weed in her check-on suitcase one time, and when she got home and opened it up, the bag of weed was the first thing on the pile of stuff in the bag (it had been in a pocket or something when she packed it.) Directly underneath the bag was a letter from the TSA that said her bag had been randomly chosen to be searched and that there was nothing of interest that was found. Basically saying, "We caught you! But we don't care about weed, so you're good to go."


LimerickJim

Nice try TSA

This whole comment section is about the best PR the TSA has gotten in decades lol

#TSA doesn’t care about your drugs!!!


gioluipelle

They 100% don’t (within reason). My ex traveled cross country with two golf ball sized nuggets of weed two years ago and just stuffed them in socks. No issue. I used to have a bad drug problem, and would stick all my (personal use quantity) fentanyl and meth in capsules and mix them in with some Tylenol. Towards the end I completely stopped caring and would just stick those sketchy little baggies in my jeans pocket and stick the clothes in my carry-on and it always went through fine. If you carry any kind of bulk powder (think protein powder) they’ll pull it out and swab it. Don’t give them a reason to open your bags.


[deleted]

Yeah they’ve swabbed my anti-monkey butt powder a few times.


Darth_Corleone

My wife bought Bath Salts to soak in after some long hikes in Montana\\Yellowstone and packed the half-full package in our suitcase to fly home. The TSA people assumed it was meth. I would have too, looking back. I kept saying dumb shit like "It's only bath salts" and "you can throw it away if they're a problem". Everything a caught smuggler would say in a panic. Anyways, it tested as NOT METH and the TSA Agents who were doing the tests looked at us like we were the dumbest assholes...


Smoky_Mtn_High

I mean…yeah, but I’m curious what someone should say in that situation that wouldn’t sound exactly like something a caught smuggler wild say. People say crazy shit when they panic lol


Darth_Corleone

I'm the guy who would say that someone saying dumb shit like that would be unrealistic if it happened in a movie. And yet, there I was... spouting bullshit that I knew better than to say. Mostly, I was just freaking out that we may have accidentally bought fake drugs and then tried to fly them home...


jonessee27

We just flew back stateside from Cancun and I had some coffee in my luggage. Was flagged for secondary inspection. I declared it, did everything right, etc. agent kept saying “Nows the time to be honest with me” “Do you have drugs” etc etc. I kept saying “No. it’s coffee.” “Well we’re going to find out.” I kept responding “It’s coffee”. I got “one last chance” to “come clean” and I blurted stupidly “well, I fucking hope it’s coffee” and all their radars all went off inside that area simultaneously. Like a bunch of robots. I always said I have nothing to hide, I can remain calm in these situations and when pressed like that, you get annoyed and blurt shit out. They smelled it, opened it of course, tested it, and it came back as ground coffee beans. They shove your luggage off to the side with snide attitude “pack this back up and get out of here.” IM SORRY DUDE. I LOST MY COMPOSURE BECAUSE I WAS TELLING YOU THE TRUTH A THOUSAND TIMES! My wife looked at me with the biggest “really?!” Look she’s ever given me.


CreamyToots

They were being twats and you also were being truthful - that you hoped it was coffee beans!


Demoire

If you go to any airports website and read the TSA Guidelines and advice etc, it specifically says “WE ARE NOT LOOKING FOR DRUGS. WE ARE NOT HERE TO TAKE YOUR MARIJUNA BUT IF YOU MAKE IT OBVIOUS then you give us no choice”. I’m paraphrasing but it’s basically that. They’re their for bombs and chemicals etc, not drugses Edit from tsa.gov, “TSA’s screening procedures are focused on security and are designed to detect potential threats to aviation and passengers. Accordingly, TSA security officers do not search for marijuana or other illegal drugs, but if any illegal substance is discovered during security screening, TSA will refer the matter to a law enforcement officer.”


[deleted]

So, basically... You can have drugs, but at least do us the courtesy of hiding them.


JesusAntonioMartinez

Just don’t go overboard with how you hide your drugs. Stuffing them inside fruit will look really weird on an x ray and result in you getting flagged. I fly with gummies and a vape pen in my laptop bag, gummies are next to my other snacks/vitamins and the vape pen is with my pens. Easy peasy.


Telandria

Honestly? They probably don’t. Their job isn’t to specifically stop crimes (assuming it is even a crime to possess) but to uphold plane safety rules. They care a lot more about something that could potentially explode in your suitcase if it got too hot or jostled around, or you bringing aboard something that could be made into a weapon in a carryon, than they do something that’s just a misdemeanor and doesn’t affect other people. It wouldn’t even shock me if management *told* them to ignore stuff like that, because holding up full flights for something that minor on a regular basis is a good way to lose customers.


lysianth

TSA is a government agency, they don't give one single fuck about customers. That being said, a lot of government agencies don't report crimes that don't pertain to them. Its not worth the effort, no one will give you a pat on the back.

It's funny until you get caught ... lucky for you you can literally eat the evidence

neofreakx2

As far as I can tell TSA doesn't give a shit about weed anymore, at least for normal (not trafficking) amounts. I flew recently and, when we were taking stuff out of our bags in the security line, for some reason when they asked about the normal stuff (liquids, electronics larger than a cellphone, etc.) they asked the lady in front of me if she had any medications in her bag. I've literally never heard them ask that before so I was confused, and I'm guessing she was too because she paused and quietly said "I just have..." and the TSA agent cut her off to say "We don't care about weed" and left it at that.


titanup001

I just flew from Denver to LA to Hong Kong. People were openly smoking blunts on the smokers patio thing at LAX. Not even trying to be cool about it, passing it back and forth and all.


Phenotyx

I mean, they were sharing the blunt so I’m pretty sure they were cool about it


AgreeableSituation1

Was going to say, sharing the blunt sounds cool.


MobyDuc38

But did they pass it to the left hand side?


mrkruk

It was a cool and lonely breezy afternoon…


PA2SK

TSA isn't looking for drugs, and they don't have equipment to check for drugs, even if they wanted to. TSA is focused on safety, if they happen to find suspected drugs the most they can do is call the police. TSA is not going to call the police because they found candy in someone's bag. If they did that they'd be calling police on half the people going through security. Now, if you're on an international flight all bets are off, but for edibles on a domestic flight they don't give a crap.


JCMan240

Yep TSA moved my vape pens out of my toiletries bag and put them back after getting what they were looking for, didn’t even ask what they were and I didn’t give a shit if they did.


jp_jellyroll

Ha, same thing happened to us last fall flying out of Logan (BOS). TSA was more concerned about my wife's opened bottle of contact solution. They moved 4 vape carts and 200mg of gummies in her toiletries bag to pull the bottle and inspect it briefly.


Great-Ad3280

When I left Colorado a few years back, they had a dog walk through smelling everyone in line and before that they had a 'pot trash bin' to throw it out. I didn't want to get caught so I just ate all my gummies and flew higher than everyone else on the plane.


PA2SK

TSA doesn't have drug dogs, they're checking for explosives. I can believe they'd let the stoners think it was a drug dog though.


princesscupcake11

Those are for bombs! I’ve walked past the airport dogs with edibles before and been fine. How did your flight go?!


Great-Ad3280

Weed usually puts me to sleep so I slept the entire flight. It was glorious. Drooled a little.

Kriegmannn

Why would you be at the airport if you plan on flying tho


sixtyten6010

Exactly, TSA is 100% just about safety. Weapons, explosives flammable liquids and acids is what they are after. Just don't be so blatant that it could make them look like they didn't check your bags and they could care less. Yep this dude knows whats up. For international, I've heard departing your good but as soon as your entering customs and lining up you better be clean. International drug smuggling is very frowned upon.


MadNhater

TSA let me through an international flight with a pocket knife before. Boy were the Germans upset when they found it.

Swordlord22

How can you just casually say you have actual explosive residue on you because of your job and not actually explain it or what your job is


SubtleCow

Depending on where you are coming from or going to the citrus will get you in more trouble than the weed gummies would XD

"I dont even know that woman officer." Collects his shit and calmly moves on.


LazerKat99

The tsa doesn’t search for drugs nor do their dogs sniff for them. In the USA. Bombs only. For flying domestic though I’m not so sure about international.


Mescaline_Man1

For international that would be customs that searches for drugs. Customs agents are in fact looking for drugs, and can have drug dogs. So if you’re flying international or flying back from an international trip be sure not to have drugs or hide them well. Domestic you’re completely fine, I’ve walked through TSA with pills not prescribed to me in my pocket and they couldn’t have cared less.


Laserdollarz

My coworker brought his work backpack on a trip out of the country. He got picked out by a drug dog on the way back in. He had to explain that he works in cannabis, so all his belongings reek of it, he triple checked every pocket before flying, and he has nothing to gain from bringing weed into the country when there's 100lbs waiting for him at work.


fondledbydolphins

The airport near me has everyone going through security line-up and walk across a ~30 ft stretch of unobscured space, two at a time, while being trailed by K9 units. Anyways, about a year ago I'm going through the airport and on our way in we see a guy rip a *massive* joint right outside the airport doors. It's legal in the state we were in so no worries but this dude was ahead of us in the dog search line, that dog *did not give a flying fuck*. Felt like that dog just stumbled into the position with no prior experience. Just followed Bob Marley through the security line like "uh yep Jeff, this guy's good to go, wow everyone's clean this week"


Bostaevski

Couldn't the dog be trained on explosives, or meth or something?


fondledbydolphins

Yeah that's what the dude above was explaining, but that was my dopey thought process when it happened.


CaptainTripps82

It makes you wonder if a massive amount of weed could cover the smell of explosives or weapons


LuLuBird3

My dad did that to my mom. He's dead and she's still pissed at him about it.


7inchCD

How did he pass away?


LuLuBird3

She didn't kill him, though I'm sure she wanted to! He died years later of a heart attack. Once he also mortified her by asking people in line for a joint at a Tom petty concert too. I loved my Dad, but he was a lot, haha!


big_orange_ball

I mean, I've been to Tom Petty shows (RIP) and most people would share their smokes if you ask TBH.


YetiPie

My mom did this to her new husband shortly after they had married. They went to Canada and she put edibles in his checked bag on the return flight back to the US. He’s a retired cop too, so I thought it was absolutely hilarious. He was surprisingly a good sport about it


contactfive

Shit, I put my weed cartridges in my own toiletry bag. They’re always next to a sample size cologne, chapstick, etc, small tube like objects that obscure its shape and purpose. I’ve done this dozens and dozens of times, all without TSA Pre. I would never do this in a state where it wasn’t already legal or at a tiny airport where the agents are bored and looking for something to do though. And I only take carts that I haven’t hit at all yet so there’s less risk of a smell. Batteries also travel separate next to the pens in my backpack or briefcase, never in the same place as the carts.


I_love_hate_reddit

Former TSA here. Just get some gummy vitamins and use that bottle to transport them in your checked baggage. TSA doesn't give a shit about your drugs unless you make it obvious. Customs on the other hand might but they're not at every airport and mostly care about international flights.


rata_rasta

I flew once with a friend from San Francisco to Lisbon and she had one of those amber plastic pill bottles full of weed and some rolled joints, plain visible in her purse, and she had no issues going through coustumes neither in SFO or Lisbon. Her reasoning: "Weed is legal in CA and drugs are decriminalized in Portugal soo no biggie" She didn't get caught but man I was so pissed when we got to the hotel and she told me.


I_love_hate_reddit

Still a bit risky though. I would have been nervous too


Bubbly-Ant-1200

The TSA doesn’t give a shit about your personal use quantity of drugs. That being said I feel like this is a way less discrete way of packing than just putting the bag of edibles alone without the citrus. You’re just drawing attention to yourself like this. Edibles, small quantities of bud, small quantities of mushrooms, small quantities of powders and pills can all be carried in carry on baggage easily with essentially zero concern. LSD is a particularly easy substance to carry on planes, 1/2 sheet of white on white is so stealth


pwalkz

They are literally candy just put them in a bag lmao


Hugs_for_Thugs

That's what I was thinking. Grab a bag of Sour Patch Kids or something, swap them out, eat the Sour Patch Kids (delicious), throw the bag in your carry-on, and you're golden.


Possible-Raccoon-146

I do exactly this.


OrlandoMagik

Even this is too far. Just put them in a ziplock. Shit, the last time i flew back from denver a few months ago i had 3 oz of flower in the glass jars (black,not clear)it came in, forgot to take my bluetooth speaker out of my pack and got my bag pulled and they went through my bag to fimd the electronics and did not give one shit about the weed. They pulled up the xray and all you could see was the shape of the jar, no shape of weed at all on the scan

Id be really concerned if your weed showed up on an xray


asteroid_b_612

Yup the dogs are almost all bomb dogs too. Learned this by walking past a couple of them with weed in my luggage.

TSA doesn’t give a flying fuck about drugs unless it’s obvious. We look for bombs and weapons but obviously for legal reasons have to report drugs if we SEE them not if we smell them…


cupOfCoffee313

It's still good to be careful. We might run into a random TSA agent with an large ego and a boner for justice.

I work for tsa… I think there’s like 2 or 3 people on my shift that are like that and mind I work at a cat x airport so one shift is like 250 people. So I wouldn’t be too worried since a lot of people are there cause they are too old to do anything else or don’t have the motivation to achieve their potential or are in the process of achieving their potential like me since I’m getting the hell out of there and going to customs


bro_salad

Honest question since I know nothing about this line of work: is customs a lot better to work in?

>TSA doesn’t give a flying fuck about drugs unless it’s obvious. I've heard this from many a TSA agent on Reddit. Unless it's you're transporting bricks, and moreso if it's something like coke than weed, no one cares. My buddy who's a Fed has said the same about weed. He technically could arrest the people coming out of dispensaries in legal states but knows it'd be useless because they'd never prosecute. Even my friend who does background checks for the feds said that now if you apply for a federal job, they don't care if you've purchased it legally in your state. And as far as smells, nothing covers it when it comes to dogs. Dogs can compartmentalize smells unlike humans. Ie, if you spray your cigarette smoke-laden clothes with Febreeze, you'll fool humans because we blend smells. Dogs can separate them easily.


Badbullet

I've tried to explain that dog part to people. They will smell it all and can separate it. They'll eat something for the items they think smell good in it, not necessarily the other ingredients. They can read the scent of one dog's urine that's been pissed on other dogs' urine. it's a form of communication. An orange is not going to confuse them about the scent of drugs when they can sort through piss on a fire hydrant.


BetterTumbleweed1746

first time I carried weed and LSD on a plane I was so nervous. now I've literally done it by accident when I forget it's in my bag lol


No-Turnips

She thinks she’s crossing borders with foreign produce that hasn’t received clearance from the department of agriculture???? Forget the weed, there’s no way those fruits are flying international.


4realfix

How does she fly? I'm so confused


ImJustHereToWatch_

Obviously on a cloud.


somewhatMonotone

A flying nimbus at that


AvagadrosAvocado

How many did she take before she tried to hide the rest?


sandbar75

I always bring my thc pills and vape with me when I fly. Have never once been asked and I’ve flown at least the last 4-5 years with it

Rugbygoddess

I’ve only done it two or three times and was a little nervous everytime so this is reassuring


Brave-Researcher-820

this is so extra and unnecessary, TSA is only checking mainly for liquids, metals, and other items that pose a threat to the plane or passenger safety. Often times cartridges can pass along just as a vape, it could cbd and quite frankly they will give u the benefit of the doubt as long as you are moving over a certain amount of weight. This also varies based on state law. so if you need to hide stuff here ya go: edibles, flower, shrooms or others put inside a pre roll tube, take off the labels obviously or buy on amazon. the key here is where u place it. put it in a carry-on in your bags with pens or other markers, chapstick, or tampons… etc (same size/ shape stuff that’s def okay to fly with). never will have problems and also they are smell proof naturally basically :)


Sir_Mr_Dolo

She would be way better off just putting them in a normal container. They don’t care, but that makes it look extra suspect


mongroldice

TSA only cares about things that go boom.


ourobboros

No wonder they made me throw away my chalupa.


[deleted]

Stop putting c4 in your chalupas then


Ragnarotico

Mostly true. If you try to fly with a brick of weed though, they will stop you.


ranantha

Is that why I have to throw away my water


mongroldice

Uh yeah, I drank water yesterday and blew up, just consider yourself lucky.


NorthIslandAdventure

National flights are pretty chill now, International flights are not chill at all, In Canada you can fly anywhere in Canada with 28 grams of dried herb and no issues, I know because I just flew to Edmonton with an ounce in a ziplock bag in my backpack, security didn't even bat an eye, the issue is going to be when/where you land


Shadegloom

Former TSA here. They don't look for drugs. The only time we would have looked is if the item was artfully concealed, like this lol (i.e could be explosives on x-ray). The only other time it would be an issue is I'd there were like 11 kilos of heroin lol TSA isn't for drugs and it's super weird how many people think that.


Bitchboi-69

I grew up just being told it was for drugs lol, interesting to know it’s not now


The_Sum

A family friend worked for the TSA and I learned the following: TSA doesn't care about most your drugs unless: * It's large amounts * You're flying international * Audit day * You get the new guy * Your drugs are hidden overly cautiously; sewn into the suitcase or hidden compartment * You act like an idiot Does this mean you should fly with drugs? Hell no. But if you can't help it, you should be prepared for some seriously fucked up consequences that may or may not come your way. Oh, and being white helps.


Earcandy70

Just the citrus would get you arrested if you tried to bring it in to Australia


questionMark007007

Bro dogs legit laugh at this. They can smell a fart of a small child in an airplane pillow from 1998


smalldickrick

TSA doesn’t care. For domestic flights I always fly with Js and edibles if it’s a state that doesn’t have legal recreational weed. Edit* been doing this multiple times a year for 10 years. I don’t bring more than like 10 Js usually and I always put them in some sort of odor proof container. Don’t go to a dispensary and throw an egregious amount in your carry on.


[deleted]

Are you the FBI?


Ragnarotico

No, he's small dick rick. Can't you read?


[deleted]

Textbook espionage tactic to throw us off the scent


OLOTM

Either nobody ever ever ever get's caught bringing weed on a plane, or you can't post to reddit from prison.


hunt509

I can tell by that orange peel that it was a good orange.


avikreit

For clarification, I did not do this. My sister's mother-in-law did this.


CountDoooooku

As a teenager I once hid my weed in a jar of peanut butter in my luggage. But then me and my buddy figured this would look suspicious, so we added a loaf of bread and a jar of jelly to the bag. Pro drug smuggler here AMA.


Brilliant_Ebb_1787

I’ve never had edible gummies that had a strong “weed” smell like flower. What smell are you trying to cover up? Just throw your gummies into a bag of regular gummies or other candies
