Mods with inbuilt battery must be in hand luggage and must be charged so you can switch them on if asked.
Any loose batteries must also be in hand luggage and ends taped or preferably in a battery box or similar to prevent shorting.

Any juice taken in hand luggage must be in a sealed plastic bag like any other liquids and any tanks with juice in them should also be placed in the bag.
Any juice packed in hold luggage has a high risk of leaking and from what i've read a bit of cling film on the top before the stopper goes on helps a lot but I would stick them in a zip lock bag as well.

Enjoy your holiday

Thanks a lot. Good advice. So a tank with juice is ok to bring through as long as its in a bag then? Happy days. Can have a wee sneaky vape in the loo at the airport then

That seems to be the general consensus from people who have flown with their vaping gear.
I'm off on my first flight as a vaper in a few months so have been paying extra attention whenever I see questions and answers/advice on the subject.

I do as per the advice given above and I also sneaky vape everywhere, including my seat on the plane when (I'm sleeping under my blanket ) Just be sure to double inhale so nothing gets out

Will def give that a go with the double inhaling!!!

You would be better off looking on the website of whatever airport you are flying from for that airport's restrictions. Things change.

I did it no problems on a 9 1/2 hour flight in September and no one was any the wiser. I wouldn't like to try it in the loos as the dectectors scare me. I read that one went off with someone vaping in the loo. They probably weren't caring about double inhaling mind you.
