Im going to florida here in a few days and theres a headshop right down the street from where im staying. I wanted to buy a pipe as a keep sake thing but idk if id be allowed to bring it back on the plane with me. I wanted to get a new glass piece but i dont wanna spend the money if the piece will just get taken away when i try to come home. Any input?

safest bet is UPSing it back to yourself, without using it first. I've had a few friends go down for clean glass on plane trips. and a few go down shipping bud cross country. But its perfectly legal to ship glass in a box.

We may see it as just a pipe but im goin with fam and my parent would be mortified if we got pulled to the side cus they saw a pipe in ny bag. I didnt think about just pocketing it. It is glass so it wouldnt set off the detectors. I think ill try that. Ill let you guys know how it goes haha thanks for the input!

Most airports now a short wave milimeter detectors which take full body scans of your body. They can see non metallic objects. I wouldn't carry it on me.

A WATER PIPE OR ANY PIPE IS LEGAL Tommy Chong got in trouble for using the mail so they made an example of him, if that is what you are thinking. I thought it was a vase. As long as it does not have residue. Like my vape is fine but my whip is caked.

In a checked bag you will be fine, in a carry-on they will see it - what they would then do I don't know.

probably claim you could break it and take over the plain,

just check the bag, alot of people dont realize this but, you can fly with your guns, just a lil paperwork and they will check your guns.

no tommy chong got in trouble cause his kid sold and shipped glassware to a state where bongs and such are illegal, they are perfectly legal anywhere else
