Ever Brought Weed on an Airplane?

I don't do it anymore, but up until the story below (basically 9/11), I can't think of a time when I didn't sneak at least a quarter under my ballsack on any domestic flight (never international).

I got arrested and detained on a plane for smoking weed in the bathroom the Christmas following 9/11, on a flight back to the east coast from my parent's house in Chicago.

It's actually a pretty hilarious story, including but not limited to a solo two hour stretch limo ride to the airport, a bottle and change of Jack Daniels, sitting directly in front of a VERY famous local athlete on the plane, losing my nerve after two puffs and "flushing" (or whatever you call what you do to an airplane toilet) the joint down the blue water toilet thingy, and then repeated telling the homosexual asian head flight attendant to "go fuck himself" when he repeatedly came over and demanded that I confess to smoking in the bathroom.

As the plane landed and started to taxi to its gate, the captain came on and said "ladies and gentlemen, we're gonna have you to stay in your seats just a little while longer than usual tonight, but just relax and we'll get you going as soon as possible." A few seconds after he said that, the flight attendant led two cops to my seat, where they stood me up and handcuffed me in front of the entire plane.

They then had me stand in the little circular 45 degree angle thing (when you get off the plane you go straight for five feet until you make a right, and where you turn is where I was kept, handcuffed and drunk as a skunk) as the rest of the passengers walked by me with looks of disgust, and I winked at the cute ones

The cops then took my unbelievably drunk ass to the airport holding cell, which was a cell made of plexiglass, and they removed my belt and shoelaces (telling me they thought I was a suicide risk).

Well, I found nothing to be quite so funny (and insulting) as that, and I had my girlfriend supposed to be picking me up from the airport, so I pounded on the plexiglass and shouted obscenities at the cops for a solid hour, demanding my one phone call, etc. etc.........then, they just let me go

No charges, no nothing, just gave me my shit and said "get the fuck outta here".

Caught a cab home and dealt with my girlfriend all up in my shit, but all in all, could've been much worse.

That's a long-winded way of saying "don't get obnoxiously drunk at an airport and, IMO, it's probably not worth trying to sneak weed anymore these days".

I travel constantly and just stick it (usually a 1/4 oz in my shaving kit in my checked luggage. My mini-pipe is in there too. I have done this at least 50 times and it has never been an issue. I only do this on domestic flights. I never carry across international borders.

Ive done it before without half oz.. 1/8th under each foot in my socks...
1/4 about my cock taped to my pubes which later i cut off with scissors to reduce pain.. knot it in or some shit so theres NO WAY it can fall through ur trousers which happened to me once at an airport.

i wouldnt even bother with international flights...

i bring weed to the airport all the time.....................in my mind

You could go an buy some of that SPICE that shit work good as hell it just like dank nugg that what I will be doing when I get on the plane in three days plus its legal so you can smoke it at the airport!!!!!!!!!!! right befor you get on

God, I hate flying for so many reasons. 12 oz of Bud Light does not cost $7, quit shitting in my face and telling me it's shitting out. Then there are all of these non smoking airports....really? Is it that fucking impossible to construct a negative pressure room? I have to go outside and back through security just to smoke a butt? Fuck that

Then there is the bud situation. The first time I flew bud to my destination, I hollowed out a marker and stuffed as much weed as I could in it, put it with a few other writing utensils and schoolbooks and checked the bag. TSA left a note in it telling me they searched it, but the weed was there.

Nowadays, I just keep a small amount in my 5th pocket and walk it right through airport security. The key is to remain cool as a cucumber. They do random searches on the people who seem to be a bit on edge, or nervous.

Doesnt sniff for drugs. My roommate got out the navy and went to TSA he said there they dont search for drugs but the usually ask the police do they know what something is

Gotta love cali...

With my script, I can fly worry free with up to 8 ounces, TSA can search me all they want but local PD or sheriffs have jurisdiction and I am legal so no worries there. I fly to Hawaii well prepared for my vacation

Also, foodsaver food packaging machines, the ones that suck all the air out...seal your stash in the bags...they kinda crush the weed a little but do it twice and aint no one smelling anything.

Ok, so here is my story of pot on a plane.

So I used to live in Connecticut. I went to Florida for vacation for a week, and picked up some really heady nugget in Connecticut before I left, and decided I wanted to bring it with me to the airport and leave it in the car so that when I got home from vacation I knew I would have a fat 1/4 oz waiting for me as soon as I got in the car. So I walked into JFK, deciding to enter the middle set of doors for no apparent reason. Looked down the hallway to the left, cop and K-9 at the far left entrance, look down the right hallway, again cop and k-9 unit standing in front of the right door entrance. So I pick up my pace anyway, (honestly who likes seeing cops, and who in their right mind would stay close to them for any length of time), I go through all the security checks and everything, no problems. I land in Tampa airport, go outside and there is a cop standing next to a large cement support pillar. So i coolly nod at him, stand on the other side of the pillar and reach into my pocket for my cigs. (yes I was stupid as a kid and smoked cigs...quit over 2 years go thank you very much) I pull out my pack and my 1/4 ounce falls out on the ground! so i quickly picked it up, shoved it back in my pocket and proceeded to power puff my cigarette, trembling like a school girl. I spent the next 2 hours getting as baked as possible and laughing hysterically at my incredible good fortune!

Thanks for reading

Section 2 of Article 4 of The Bill of Rights:

The Citizens of each State shall be entitled to all Privileges and Immunities of Citizens in the several States.


Just need a case to go to Supreme Court to set a precadent. It IS legal though, however, you will go through terrible legal problems as so many people are ignorant of our countries foundation. Of course, it's still federally illegal though

international flights... your best bet would be to just find it when you're there... ask people when you're out at a bar... otherwise you COULD try the cup thing listed above.. but if you insist on bringing:

the shampoo bottle trick: lay stuff in plastic wrap in a line, put sanitizer on hands or wash well (important: so smell wont transfer outside), wrap plastic wrap around stuff tightly, put more sanitizer on hands to be safe, repeat, next wrap it in PLASTIC [not duct] tape, spray it down with sanitizing hand spray & let dry, empty half shampoo into cup, drop it in shapoo, add shampoo in cup back to bottle til it's full then seal, pack mixed in with various other tolietries

what i think is the best way tho: buy a small cigar that comes in a glass case with a cork (i use garcia y vega), take out the cigar, break up stuff into small nugs (i bring an 8th & can fit it in smallest cigar holder) and using a pencil, tightly stuff stash into the glass, push in cork TIGHTLY so you seal in the smell of the bud, wipe down hands with sanitizer, wipe down glass with sanitizer well, put on tight underwear (maybe two pairs) and put this in your underwear.. girls with big boobs can put it in ur bra w a sweatshirt also... i always ask various people to smell it before i stash it just to be sure i havent become immune to smellin it

you don't HAVE to use the glass container, i just like how it holds in the smell and how it hides... but you can also just wrap it shampoo style (above) except make the package small flat and sqaure and put it in your underwear...

just dont act weird or paranoid, don't dress like a "pothead", just stay calm and waltz right through there. im talking domestic though, i dont know much about foreign... i dont see why it'd be much different tho... remember the golden rule: don't panic. theyre not looking for small amt's of pot.. that's not why there's security. while i can't promise anything and claim no responsibility if something goes wrong, if you don't do anything stupid, you keep it somewhere where there is ZERO risk of it falling out (tape it to your thigh if u have to), and you control the smell all the ways i said above, you should be fine.

not that i would know from experience. happy travels. peace.

take a train instead, had a friend move to cross country twice with stuff in duffel bags and nothing was even checked at all bongs and all kinds of stuff were in the bags. was a few years ago

Take your stash, put on the bottom of a peanut butter jar (protected in a few bags of course), fill the pb back up and make it look new.
Get the address of the the place your staying.
Mail the peanut butter to your hotel/wherever.
when you get there, get your package and enjoy your "peanut butter"
Simple

Just a neat article i found on the weed blog.com http://www.theweedblog.com/can-you-f...cal-marijuana/

Here is a wild story that I received from the Montana Caregiver’s Network Newsletter Vol. I, Issue 10, dated August 3rd 2010:
Federal TSA Regulations allow marijuana on Planes
I flew the friendly skies with a 3 foot pot plant, a female in pre-flowering mode, and yes, this really happened…My flight left Missoula on the 28th of July, and I carried my 2 foot long Gandalf and my 1 ounce of marijuana with me, out in open, uncovered, from Missoula, thru Denver, and on to Michigan – Detroit. Going thru security in Missoula was quite easy, the head of the TSA had never seen a medical marijuana card, so she called the local Missoula airport police, and they confirmed that I was a legal patient, and let me board.
In Michigan, a patient gave me a female plant that smelled nice, barely flowering, only a few pistil hairs showing. I decided to try and see what the general perspective of medical marijuana was with the police and TSA, with our federal government and flying with cannabis. At 5:00 AM, going through airport security with the plant, the Gandalf and about a half ounce of marijuana, the TSA asked to see my medical marijuana card…and that was it. I carried the plant high in one hand, uncovered, next to my pipe, uncovered, and while most people didn’t even see the plant, concerned with their travels, about 15% of every person, especially pilots, noticed the plant, taking a triple-take. About 1/6th of them stopped me and asked me if that was really what they thought it was. And of course, I told them it was a medical marijuana plant, to which they were amazed and didn’t know what to say. Many of them were very happy about the lack of prosecution for me and my medicine and were glad that our government is relaxing prohibition.
6:00AM, on the plane, in seat 13B, the plane was scheduled to depart, but the police had been called and wanted to ask me a few questions. So United Express delayed departure for 30 minutes, while the police verified my medical marijuana status, called the police in Chicago O’Hare Int’l, and verified that all was well. It was. Getting back on the plane, yielded cheers and claps, and passengers were relieved, not only to take off, but that the airlines and airport police had allowed an actual live medical marijuana plant onboard.
When we landed in Chicago, there were two police officers waiting for me. They pulled me off to the side, verifying all my information, while I politely spoke to him about it, and waited while he confirmed his information…which appears to be…that when travelling, according to the airport police in Michigan, Seattle, and O’Hare Int’l, as long as a patient does not leave the terminal, they are not in the jurisdiction of the local state’s laws regarding marijuana. And as long as the origination and destination locations are both medical marijuana friendly, it is okay to fly with medical cannabis.
The Chicago police escorted me to the next gate for Missoula, but I missed my flight and had to be rebooked through Seattle…which didn’t take long, and we were on our way. There was not much commotion on the flight to Seattle, except, like on the last flight from Detroit to Chicago, everyone, including the stewards, took pictures of my plant and I on the plane, stating that they had never seen this before.
Upon arriving in Seattle, our flight to Missoula was cancelled, so we had to wait another 5 hours for a plane from Seattle to Missoula. So, in pain, I approached Duty Manager, Debra McGee, and explained my need to use my medicine, but that I was unable to leave the terminal. I told her about my digital Volcano vaporizer and that it’s not fire, flame, combustion, or particulate matter, in other words, it’s not smoking. Unsure, she called Sergeant Addison who explained that Seattle Airport Police have a ‘hands off’ policy with medical marijuana cardholders. She told me that I was approved to use my medical marijuana, via vaporizer, but asked me to not share it with others. I agreed. There were only about 30 people in the large 4-gate waiting area, part of the A series of gates. I plugged in the vaporizer, ground up marijuana, put it in the holder, and vaped 5 bags of cannabis, relieving my pain and experiencing the end of prohibition – I no longer feel fear, because I choose to use the medicine that brings me the relief I need to live and be productive every day.
I was travelling with one of the folks who works here at MCN, and as we went to the gate: C14, for our final flight home, during the wait, I vaporized a few bags of marijuana, while the plane was boarding, open and in public. Many people barely noticed that I was using marijuana, or had a live plant with me, but a few did, and I had a few interesting conversations. Generally, what appears to be happening, is that our countries’ citizens no longer feel the need to point out my medical cannabis use, unlike a card-holder who reproached me for smoking a bowl as soon as I got out of the terminal at the Missoula airport. He said that my using my medicine in public, was going to ruin it for the whole country!
How silly is that!? I just flew 3,500 miles, with pot, a plant on our national airlines, and ingested medical marijuana, in public, and carried marijuana, through an airport, in a state without a medical cannabis act. I think he is wrong. I think I will not ruin it for everyone. I believe what Gandhi said, “Be the change, you wish to see in the world”. And a certain president Roosevelt said that we have nothing to fear, except fear itself. Today, I have jet lag, and am tired, a little out of it, but the feeling of freedom that I have experienced by living what I believe leaves me without words. Yet I will say that I have a new respect for our country’s founding fathers, because the system is working. I was polite and transparent with everyone who was involved, TSA, police, airline personnel, and they all treated me in the same way.
They all understood and I am looking forward to the next time I fly the friendly skies, to a state with a medical marijuana act, because I will bring back more than one 3 foot plant that is in flowering mode. And now that I know I can use my medicine, as long as I let them know, I no longer have fear pain, or airline problems, cancellations and delays.
Here are Tips for Flying with Medical marijuana, According to the Newsletter Author:
Remember to have your card and your driver’s license with you WITH MATCHING ADDRESS!!! Do NOT check your medicine. When TSA handles your checked baggage, they are technically in possession of it which is illegal if they do not have a card. Try to book connections in other medical states. If the flight it rerouted, there is nothing you can do to control it, but please respect the current laws in other states. When questioned, be cool and remember you are not some juvenile exploiting a privilege, nor a criminal with something to hide; you are a suffering patient and not only is it necessary but it is also YOUR RIGHT for you to possess and use this medicine. Know the laws for the states you are travelling to better than law enforcement. This usually just requires one intensive read-through. Carrying a copy of the laws and any supporting rules is a good idea to show a skeptical agent. Be firm about your rights but do not brag. It’s ok to be a little bit of a pain in the ass about having your medicine with you. Many sick people’s attitudes have been interpreted as nuisances by the less compassionate.
