You don't give enough info to provide any decent answer.

Why would you need to 'sneak one through' anywhere?
Why would you have to get rid of it before you get off the boat?
Are you in or traveling through countries that have restrictions or outright bans?

All battery devices must be in carry on luggage for air travel.
Check with the cruise line about use of e cigs / vaping devices.

I will be going on a cruise in about a month and I’m wondering how could I bring a vape on-board without having it in a carry on. If I did have it in a carry on would they acknowledge it? Also what is the best way to sneak one through an airport/cruise? If I do bring one on board will I have to get rid of it before I get off the boat?
You'd be better off just calling the airline/cruise line and getting their policy directly from them, instead of sneaking vape gear.

Hi and welcome,
If you are of legal age, follow the policies of the airport/airline/cruise line.


Cheers

Welcome to the friendly bunch :)

There should not be any special restrictions on the ship but you will be bound by every local law in the visited countries. On flights you always must have the mod in your hand luggage but tbh i've often also taken a little pod system as well as my mod, without comment :)

I wouldn't worry about whether you can take it with you and get through airline check points. Those people see them all the time and know what it is. The point is where you can use it and where it's not allowed.

As long as you're stealthy and don't offend anyone you'll be fine. If it's a DTL sub-ohm cloud device prepare to be scolded. I'd only use a MTL small mod and tank if I were trying to be stealthy around crowds where vaping might be frowned upon.

High nic is better for those situations. You can hit it periodically and not have to chain vape. 18mg to 24mg juice will satisfy and space out your vape cravings. I've been stealth vaping since 2010 and only once or twice have I been told that I can't vape inside. Once was in a steak house chain that recently declared vaping not allowed in their facility. I went back to the same place a couple of years later and no one cared. I just blow my wimpy MTL vapor down under the table. :)

I'm actually in literally the same boat (hahah). My cruise is in the middle of June on Carnival. If you read their policies they mirror the smoking ones. You are allowed to vape only in designated areas that are also smoking areas. You are not allowed to vape on balconies or any common area other than the Casino I believe. I don't see an issue with bringing anything on board in a carry-on. I'm planning on bringing 2 pod systems, 2 tanks w/ mods and a handful of batteries with a charger.
I'm sure it is directly related to your cruise line but the safest way is to either contact them or read their smoking policy as someone else mentioned.

Well you know I think you've had the best advice already - contact the organiser/ agent, ask the official question and get the official answer... then stand back and ask if the answer isn't what you want do you still want to go on the cruise or might it be better to decide on a diffferent holiday ... bearing in mind one is actually supposed to ENJYOY holidays!!!
