    IMO serving alcohol in airports and on planes has a greater safety risk than allowing e-cigarettes would have.

    It almost seems to be a daily event, hearing about drunks on planes causing issues.
    They'd be far better off breathalysing everyone at the gate :)
    Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.
  • Hi

    Egypt Air are not a fan - took mine in hand luggage and was told not to use them - wasn't planning too but worth adding just in case.

    Paid off all Catalogues 10.10.2014

    If your going to vape, heres what to do:

    Use the lowest volt/watts that your battery allows
    Take a small vape and hold it in your lungs - it evaporates rapidly in the body, a breath hold of 20 seconds should allow you to breathe out with no vapours on your breath whatsoever.

    There is also vapourless e liquid for sale

    Vape stealthily, keep the e cig up your sleeve or in a pocket until nobody is looking, or go to the toilets.
    Owed out = lots. :cool:

    We flew with Air France last month and the captain reminded passengers that it was a no smoking flight but stated e cigarettes were okay.

    Aren't most hairspray aerosols well in excess of 100ml? I may be out out touch, as haven't had the need to buy any for a few years now...
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    Well that doesn't please me one bit as I have four long haul flights booked with them. Would have booked with someone else if I had known that!

    I smoke and always take nicotine chews on long haul flights. They're horrible on their own, but kill the craving if you chew a couple whilst drinking your favourite tipple.

    Just an idea....
