Flying with weed

Anyone ever bring it through an airport?

Not worth the risk anymore.

Don't do it; plain and simple advice. The sophisticated "Sniffers" that are used to detect bomb making residue on airline passengers are also calibrated to sniff out many other types of substances, including weed. I ought to know...I'm a TSA Screener at a major airport.

Best thing to do is this: day before your flight head over to DHL or FedEx or something with a package with your weed in it (be smart about how you wrap it). Make sure to drop it off just before closing time and tell them you want it overnighted to your hotel/destination. They'll be in such a rush to get it out in time that they won't properly check it. It's definitely more expensive that trying to sneak it through airport security, but in my mind it's totally worth it when you consider the risk of the alternative.

I'm the TSA Agent who posted earlier in this thread. Without giving away secrets, I can tell you "R5" that a sock is the first place a baggage searcher would look. The particles that give Weed the unique odor will permeate most everything. I agree with "R6", your bro is taking a big chance particularily since most countries treat possession of Marijuana much more harshly than the USA or Canada.

My friend flies with it by placing it at the bottom of a hand cream jar. She empties out the cream, puts the weed in and then puts the cream back on top of it, smooths it out a little, and packs it in her toiletries. She typically finds a fairly fragrantly scented cream. Just make sure the weed is well packed in a ziploc. Dogs have sniffed her bag and never detected. Of course that doesn't mean she didn't piss herself while they were doing it. LOL I'm with the others though...way too risky. Find a local connection once you get to your destination.

I pack mine into tight little bricks, and then I disguise it by taping an alarm clock and a drycell battery onto the bricks with duct tape. TSA never suspects a thing! Good luck.

I knew a couple old potheads who spend 3 months every winter in Mexico and didn't feel safe buying it down there. Their trick was to buy a pack of 35mm film, open it up and put some weed in one of the little plastic film canisters, then put it back in the box and re-shrink wrap the box so it looked like a pack of unopened film. They claimed that the combination of the plastic wrap and that strong chemical smell inside film canisters made it so that not even dogs could smell the weed. They also carried their old camera, of course. I know they were still doing this as recently as 2005, post-9/11.

It used to be that Fed-Ex was entirely indifferent to the use of its service for drugs. Remember? An "American key" was 2.0 pounds, rather than 2.2, because that was the maximum for Fed-Ex packages. Basically, Fed-Ex reasoned that so long as you paid the freight, it made no real difference to them what you shipped. Is this still true?

A friend's sister was suffering horrible side-effects of chemotherapy, as she was losing the battle against cancer. It was awful.

My friend asked me if I knew any way to get some medical marijuana...and, well, I did. The ill sister was living in St. Louis, we're in California.

I packed up three or four excellent varieties, in ziplock bags and glass jars, and shipped the package to her U.S.P.S. This was during some of the worst winter storms the middle west had seen in years - including an ice storm that took out the power for days.

There was no confirmation of delivery, and my friend became terrified that the jig was up and I would be arrested any minute.

Well, when the power came back on the sister called, laughing. The package had arrived safely - and positively REEKING.

It did help her appetite, and she felt a little better...didn't stop the cancer from taking her, though.

by Anonymousreply 55April 6, 2010 10:02 PM

OP, you've gotten some good and bad advice on this thread, the bad coming from the supposed TSA screener at R3. In reality, TSA is phasing out sniffers because they don't work worth a shit; they're instead stepping up use of ETD machines (the thing that they use to check for explosive traces after swabbing your suitcase), and those don't detect drugs. Regardless, not that many airports even have sniffers, and even at airports that do, only a small handful of passengers go through them because they're so much more time-consuming than x-ray machines. Personally, unless I know drug dogs are likely to be present, I just wear tighty-whities to the airport, stick a bag in my crack (not *up*, just in), and then remove it and put it in a scent-masking container in my carry-on in the airport bathroom.

FedEx is also a good idea. Placing it in a bottle of liquid is not. At altitude bottles contract, and sometimes they explode upon reentry. Bottle caps also can come off. What my friends do instead is stick a bag in a plastic jar of Gif peanut butter, the scent of which also throws off dogs.

I suppose it should go without saying that you should use a fake name when dropping off the package (and paying with cash) and a fake name to deliver to.

I have a Question then. What if i jsut put a small bag off weed in side a Shampoo bottle(with shampoo ontop of weed to cover it). and put that along with other regular things. Then i put the bag under the Plain instead of making it a carry on. That basically makes it perfectly fine to bring right? i mean iv taken a pipe with some weed and put it in some socks. and put it under the plain. never had a problem. so is it better to take carry on or under the plain? as for ppl who work at airport reading this. Why must you hate us :( we just wanna get high. let it slide! you guys serve jack, and other alch.

I've also heard about the coffee bean thing.

The amount of misinformation on this post is hilarious. If you are trying to mask the scent of marijuana from a dog, don't bother as it is next to impossible. Dog detectable scents are left by microscopic particles that can and will permeate through everything including liquids, sealed plastics, and alternative forms of THC like brownies. Masking doesn't work for dogs since dogs separate scents as opposed to humans who usually just smell the most obv/potent one. On the other hand, if you are trying to mask the pot for human smell detection almost anything works. Anyone who says "I put it in honey/peanut butter/coffee" or "sealed it in a bag covered in ammonia cloth" and avoided detection most likely avoided it since no detection or surveillance was being used in that particular instance. Something only like 3%-7% of checked bags are being inspected via dogs/xray with only 10% of security agents using these dogs correctly. I hope this helps.

K. Powers *tries* so hard to sound authoritative, but fails. My younger brother is a massive pothead -- he was a judge of the Amsterdam Cannabis Cup at the ripe old age of 16 -- who not only has a huge hydroponic setup in his basement but also travels with what Snoop Dogg would call the "sticky, ICKY shit" on a monthly basis. Not only has he never been caught -- and this includes numerous international customs gates where pot is more stringently regulated than domestically or in Europe/elsewhere in N. America -- but he routinely trafficks large quantities straight under the noses of authorities and these supposed wonder dogs that can sniff THC out of anything ... and he's now 26, so he's been doing and learning the tricks for over a decade. I'm not even remotely going to divulge his methods here, but suffice it to say it's not difficult if you know what you're doing, and if you're traveling either domestically or to a destination where you know there won't be dogs, stuffing it down your bra or strapping it to your taint will 99.9% of the time do the trick.

Can dogs sniff out liquid thc? Anyone has experience with this?

I'm travelling abroad soon and am planning to apply a few drops of that to my cigarettes so that they'll look just like.. normal cigarettes. There's no way I will get busted right? I mean the liquid is colorless and odorless, and it dries out within seconds after application on the cigs.

ALWAYS use the USPS to move illicit items. FedEx and others can open your mail. It's in the fine print. It's not illegal because it's not federal mail. The US postal service has to obtain a search warrant, however. So assuming your packaging is legit, USPS is alot less risky.

If you grind it up and pack it so it's flattened, it opens up a million other places it can be very discreetly stashed. Just make sure there's something to mask the odor - I usually put it in a small ziplock bag, then put that ziplock into another small ziplock along with a dryer sheet. I won't say where I hide the bag for fear of jinxing but I'm sure a creative pothead can come up with something.

But don't travel with nugs. Grind and flatten. Then use your imagination. I've done it literally dozens of times with no incident at all. My one close call was when I totally didn't realize I had a pipe in a bag I hadn't used in forever, and the TSA screener pulled it out. I said it was a tobacco pipe, she sort of gave me a look, and let it slide. It was on a trip home, so I didn't have any actual bud. (We all know that one, right? Don't bring weed home. That would be a stupid thing to get busted for, so why run up the odds?)

But gosh, wouldn't it be nice if were just fucking LEGAL and I could just pop into a coffeehouse in the city where I'm going and not have to deal with any of this bullshit??? Why should my drunken family get to indulge their intoxicant of choice on holidays but vacation for me means cold turkeying? Ridiculous.

I brought weed onto a mediterranean cruise once. flying from louisiana to italy, 2 stops. I put a little nugget into a bag of fake and had it in my pocket.

One of the most important parts of bringing things like that through airports is being confident, LOOKING normal and harmless, having short hair, and dressing conservatively. No offense to anyone, dont take this the wrong way but it does make it easier being white colored, so keep that in mind when strategizing.

I think if you wanted to bring something home to mail it in most quantities. also make it so that an x ray scan wouldnt pick up what you were mailing. for example, I got mailed blotters. the guy used card stock and glue to seal the bag in between, then put it in an envelope, in another envelope, so that it probably looked like a letter

Fellow marijuana enthusiasts,

I am pleased to report that the "tighty whitey method" remains a safe way to travel domestically (not internationally) with small quantities of mj. I have used this method successfully on numerous occasions in the past, but on my most recent trip (August 2012) I was concerned about the new "body scan" technology being rolled out in major airports (including my own EWR).

For the unenlightened, the tighty whitey method involves grinding up a small quantity of mj (I typically do an 1/8) and compressing it into a flat, dense nug. The nug is then wrapped up in saran wrap and placed inside tighty whiteys or briefs under the nut-sack or in the "grundle" region. Make sure to PRACTICE this method before you travel. After a while, you will forget that the package is even there at all.

If, when heading through a TSA security checkpoint, you are sent to one of the backscatter or millimeter wave machines, simply OPT OUT. Politely say, "I would like to opt out of this machine." The TSA agent will probably not even ask for an explanation, but he/she will inform you that this decision will result in a thorough pat down.

Prepare to be patted down all over, including your ball-bag. The screener will actually brush your sack with his hand, but remain calm. Repeat the following mantra in your head: “Airports are not dragnets for small amounts of mary jane.” As long as the package is small, you keep your cool, and you have practiced the method, the screener will notice nothing and send you on your merry way.

Note: DO NOT take the package out of your tighty whiteys until you have reached your final destination. Before you board the plane you could be subjected to a random bag check or pat down. Keep the package in its spot until you reach your final destination.

For those worried about "drug dogs" understand this: 1) the few dogs in airports on domestic flights are looking for explosives, not drugs and 2) dogs are NOT used directly on people because of potential liability.

Finally, I would NEVER recommend traveling with a stash in your checked luggage. You never know what could happen when your bags are out of your hands. Your bags will be x-rayed and possibly hand searched. There is a chance you will get lucky. But there is also a chance you will run into an overzealous bag screener with an axe to grind. I especially advise against putting your stash into any sort of bottle of liquid (shampoo, peanut butter, etc.). There are many documented cases of people being caught using this method. The TSA has seen this a million times. Use your heads people.

Special thanks to user Bart Simpson who posted on this tried and true method extensively in another thread.

Be safe and stay stoned my friends. :)

I was given the eighteenth degree in Philadelphia on my way home from Amsterdam. We had nothing- I had a pouch of tobacco because I roll my own cigs that had a crumb of weed in it because I rolled a joint over my pouch while in Amsterdam. Needless to say both my wife and I had all of our luggage ripped apart, we had gifts we had purchased for friends confscated things like: a metal ashtray that had a marijuana leaf on it t-shirts, a couple lighters, rolling papers ect. We also were strip searched during which the TSA told me that his superior officer told him that he wanted to call the cops and have me put in jail. They found nothing (because I had nothing) but we missed our connector flight, had to re-enter the bag check area (where they took more things that they didnt take at the massive search) and because of all this hassle I ended up leaving my laptop at the first check where we had spent 4 hrs being combed over. When I arrived home I called the airport and spoke directly to the agent who had overseen our search. He told me he didnt see that anyone had left a computer- but I am 100% certain I left the laptop on his searching station. I'm convinced to this day that asshat stole my computer right after he tried to wreck my life.

Do not take anything across the borders anymore. While there may be a lot of ppl who get away with it- you dont want to take the chance of running into the same type of ignorants that I ran into- yeah, the type of people who would try to throw you in jail for having a crumb of weed- then steal your laptop as a side payment/tip.

Ladies: I have flown domestically (US) at least five times using the "tampon" method, twice being Rapiscanned, and nothing has ever been suspected. I would hesitate to describe it as fool proof--nothing is-- but besides the fact that the scanning machines cannot see under the skin there, I honestly believe that no one at the major airports I pass thru is interested in pulling an 50 bucks worth of personal use pot out of a young white lady's poom-poom. I usually bring no more than 1/4oz, wrap the baggie in several layers of clear packing tape, then cover in two condoms with a string attached. Voila. After screening I remove it and put it in my purse. Keep in mind that the longer it is inside your body will warm it and you may start to smell like weed. As far as flying internationally, I cannot vouch for that, esp if youre going to a country with frightening drug laws (southeast Asia, for example). Finally, sometimes my friends don't want to smoke my "pussy weed" even tho I wrap it very carefully in many layers of material. More for me I guess!

Whether or not you think it smells like weed, the dogs will be able to smell it, and when flying internationally, non-packaged food products draw attention. You can try vacuum-sealing it and try to make it appear like it's a packaged food, but it's really not worth the risk.

There's no intent to distribute and obviously for personal use so nobody really cares or bothers to look since it is so out in the open.

Some rumors and urban myths dispelled..

Dogs smell individual scents, not the collection like humans do. A beef stew smells to us like a beef stew. To a dog, it smells like beef, carrots, celery and each individual ingredient. Thus trying to "mask" the scent with coffee or other powerful scents is valid only to conceal from human screened bags.

NOTE- some head shops sell smell-proof bags; these are HIGHLY recommended. A smell proof baggie in a medicine container works in a pinch.

I've flown with pot many times, both domestically (around Cali, to Chicago, NYC, Atlanta, Texas) and internationally (London, Mexico). I have a valid CA prescription which I keep with me at ALL TIMES. No, the FAA doesn't recognize state law but it gives you some excuse if you're caught plus I never take more than a gram, if that.

DO NOT TAKE A USED PIPE. Take papers, or better yet, buy papers after you land. At minimum, take a NEW UNUSED pipe. OPTIONAL- every hotel has a bible, and that paper is really thin.. 8-) Just get some with the least amount of print; it doesn't taste great but hey.. I put a thumbtack in my bag and get a can of coke when I get there..

MY STRATEGY- PART 1- minimize risk and exposure. A certain percentage of people at the airport are a) high; b) have handled pot recent; c) brushed up against someone who has; d) etc.. leaving many people with traces of residue somewhere on their person or luggage. Obviously there is some threshold or there would be several or more people detained on every flight- which obviously there is not.

PART II - minimize contact transfer. DOMESTIC. Pack your weed the day before in something water/air tight. Then wash the packed container (and your hands) with soap and water and set it aside. This is a good test- if water leaks into the weed when you wash the container, it was a bad choice anyway. Find something else to pack your weed in. The next day, after a shower and fresh change of cloths, pack normally. I put it in the pocked of some rolled up jeans (with many pairs). I pack the prescription (or copy of and keep the original in my carry-on) somewhere close by or in the same pocket. RISK- if you go to great length to conceal your weed, you risk "the concealment told us you knew it was wrong to transport weed" so YMMV.

INTERNATIONAL/EXTRA PARANOID- Minimize transfer as described above, plus added security. Without touching the week, transfer to as small a vacuum sealing bag as you can. Use a food vacuum sealer to suck all the air out creating a TIGHT thin, long little nugget of pot. I then re-seal this in another vacuum bag. Trim off the edges to make it as small as possible. Wrap in duct tape TIGHTLY. Put this long thin weed pack into an opaque bottle of shampoo, place in your cosmetics/overnight bag, put into the luggage and check it. Getting the weed pack out afterwords can be a bit of a bitch, but just pack some tweezers and you'll be fine :-) Just don't tear the package trying to get it out.

OPTIONAL- mentioned earlier- jar of face cream or hair product. Scoop it out, put weed pack inside, put product back in and smooth it over.

After you've done this once or twice, you can do all the above in less than 5 minutes. The payoff is that you arrive at your destination with the weed of your liking vs WTF you might end up with via a street buy.

I just flew with weed from Burbank to Vegas in the form of tincture a week ago. I just emptied a small contact lens solution bottle, squeezed the tincture in, put the lid on and placed it in my carryon. No problems whatsoever at either airport.

I can't even remember the last time I saw a drug sniffing dog at the airport, checking carryons.

I've sent weed before. Many times. Not a large amount, a few bowls. Just wrap, wrap, wrap in plastic bag, foil, duct tape, whatever you have, then put it in some tightly packed coffee. Never been busted.

by Anonymousreply 196December 19, 2012 10:42 AM

Thank you, r191.

I've seen drug sniffing dogs in the past at EWR (international) and HNL (mainland arrivals). The international trains into France from Amsterdam and Switzerland can be screened by dogs either onboard or at the station upon arrival.

On the concealment issue...I flew with a guy from Amsterdam to DC who just stuck rolled up joints in a pack of cigarettes and planned to tell customs that he forgot they were there.

Mailing it is another option. Silk Road vendors apparently use the vacuum seal technique, inserted in a DVD case or something. Europeans mail themselves pot from Amsterdam the same way (or in a flat envelope, with mixed results).

I would say almost no chance of getting busted with edibles except by a drug-sniffing dog, who are very very sensitive and masking scents do not work.

R194 The tincture is just the extracted THC in liquid form. It comes in a bottle and you just put a dropper full under your tongue and wait for it to kick in similar to an edible. I prefer it over edibles because it doesn't seem to produce an overwhelming feeling of being stoned out of your mind. It's the bee's knees.

by Anonymousreply 198December 19, 2012 3:03 PM

I have flown with edibles many times. You can see the drug sniffing dogs at the security line, so throw away the weed if you see them.

by Anonymousreply 199December 19, 2012 4:32 PM

After you've sealed it in a ziplock, smoosh all the air out and seal tightly. Double bag if you like. Roll up tightly.

Purchase some paraffin wax at the local grocery. Melt on your stove, dip the tightly rolled bag in the wax, let cool. Do this at least three times.

Wash your hands between each dip and the entire package after all dips.

Then stash where you think best. I've used homemade jelly, stuff it down the middle of the jar...makes a great gift!

If you are careful with package and hand washing and limit any chance of residue on your clothes, the wax seals in the smell perfectly...

i write this while i am taking a bong hit. First never carry weed on board, always pack it in your checked bags. Both of these methods have worked for me. You need 1 teeny ziploc, a single serve coffee in foil envelope, tape, knife, glue stick. optional greeting card with envelope

1.Open the pouch in a manner that will allow you to put in the ziploc and reseal to appear untampered with. 2.Put the weed into the teeny ziploc, before you completely zip it closed, suck the air out, now zip it closed. wrap tape around ziploc all way, then place it into the foil pouch with the coffee. Reseal pouch using glue stick. Write yourself a bon voyage card stick the pouch in with the card, put between aricle of clothing. I recently did this for my daughter went to study in Florence Italy. I didnt tell her she found the card.

method 2 On the seam of a tennis ball make a small cut big enough, deposit your stash, glue closed. this worked when i went to thailand.

ive smoked up right in front of the airport entrance once, at the end of where the cars let you off. nada. Flying out of Paris, Ive brought joints in my tobacco (i use loose tobacco), had a suit on, and my tobacco in my suit pocket. nada.

then again, weed possession for personal use (i think up to 3grams) isn't illegal in most of Europe... the way it should be.

also, I've never seen a sniffer dog at the airport, ever, and I fly quite often...

First have a large, leisurely meal. Then allow your body to digest it and proceed to push poop out from within your bunghole. It is crucial to remember to squat like a hobo with hand extended between legs and palm held open to catch any & all butt bombs. Once your poo baby has been delivered, carefully place all weed contents into the dookie (while still steaming and soft) without any wrapping, as this will give your weed a chance to absorb any oils from your butt nugget while simultaneously passing on a delighful poop flavoring. Lastly, lube that poop up and shove shove it right back up your ass. Even customs won't dare dissecting your hairy, corn-encrusted battleship if it so happens to dock unexpectedly. You'll be singing the weed song by bone thugz with doo-doo breath in no time. ;)

I've flown with weed 30-40+ times, domestically and international I grind very finely and dump it at the bottom of a sock - unwrapped. I only carry a few grams of top quality - enough for 4-5 good one-hitters a day. Impossible to see or feel the little shake at bottom of sock. Granted - I do nothing to mask smell. My rational is that trying to wrap it or mask the smell implies intent. My logic is - if caught - that I simply took the wrong pair of socks - the one I use to stash it at home. Must have been a little shake that fell into sock. Enough for 1-2 weeks looks like nothing when you try to empty it from the sock - looks like a joint or two. I cannot imagine anyone making a big deal out of a little shake in the bottom of a sock. Be realistic - they really are not concerned about a little personal use weed. Most dogs (esp beagles) are agricultural. Airports much more concerned about the veggies / fruits - and of course, explosives.

science concept

smell is a combination of molecules

molecules are bigger than atoms, atoms are bigger than electrons/protons/neutrons

condom maker qc their products by shooting electrons through it. electrons pass the condoms, they are defect. if it doesnt go through, condom is good.

why? because virus are made of molecules. if an electrons doesnt pass through, viruses wont pass through the condoms.

put your weed in a small plastic bag and shove it in a condom. tie it up few times and then shove it in another condom and tie it again. just to be sure.

now shove that condom inside a small coffee jar with some coffee bean and crushed instant coffees. coffee kills and neutralises smell.

I am heading to London/Spain in December. I was looking at weed policies via airports. SFO/LAX do not confiscate weed within the legal limits in their searches. There is no penalty. I am flying into Heathrow, which I have been many times. What do you think? I was hoping to bring just a few buds to blaze. I'd probably just put it in the pocket of jeans or a coat in my checked luggage. I fly with it all over the US and it's fine. Any thoughts UK/Spain?

I’ve seen dog sniffers at Heathrow. Hard to know if they are bomb or drugs. But I have seen definite drug dogs at the Chunnel train. They got a guy with pot. My sense is the UK is more strict than most places in Europe. Not an issue in most of the US. CA never checks and as someone mentioned, it’s more about the local laws then the Federal. Not an issue in most of the Northeast or West Coast. UK is one place I’ve never tried - except Belfast which is generally a non-issue as is Ireland in general.

Then, casually put it into my bag. TSA was like whatev and leave my backpack alone. The Viet police were like whatev too. Oh, and the Hong Kong police were super chill too about it.

Sidenote: I thought I would bring them on board and enjoy a mellow, sleepy high fly. Gurl, NO, the turbulence left me spinning, I thought I was flying up in a rocket and dropped straight down the entire time. So, the lesson is: "Don't get high on a plane."
