I havent fly since I vape which is a month ago. Few years ago, i vape chinese ecigs in flight in my seat....not a full flight, and I was all by myself seating at the rear. And those ecigs dont necessarily make lots of vapor.

Now with all the rules being so tight, and our gear making much more vape, when nic cravig kicks in, anyone vape in the toilet in flight?

Isnt vapor unable to set off smoke alarm tho?

Some long haul flights, 6 - 9 hours flight is really hard on the craving, I thought qith craving I can finally fix that problem

It isn't specifically smoke they pick up, but rather particles in the air. Since vapor is more then just air, I'd be careful. Blow it down, rather then up. I can't imagine it going off that way.

On that I'm not 100% sure, so I was erring on the side of caution. I do know that these days airplane security has NO sense of humor at all. I'd rather put up with the craving then find my passport is being held or I'm on a no fly list.

I never really paid attention which way it went when I blow it out. It dissipates so quickly though, that even if it did float up, it'd be gone by the time it reached the detector I think.

I'm almost certain it can set the detectors off. There was a pretty lengthy thread here awhile back where a guy set the detector off in the govt building he works in and the whole building was evacuated. I'm sure it was a "cloud" that he was blowing but I'd be very careful if I were you. Airport security is already a pain in the ...., I wouldn't want to have to deal with that!

It can and will! I tested it on my home detector yesterday because I was wondering about vaping on a plane. I did blow it directly in the detector though

However if you hold it in you won't get a cloud. Its still risky though
