View Full Version : safe to bring pot on airplane?
Hi, i was thinking about bringing some pot on a domestic flight. Just 1/8th. How dangerous do you guys think this would be? I was thinking about taping the bag to my inner leg. I think its pretty safe to do this, but let me know if im wrong.
thanks

its your life.. if u want to take that stupid of a risk than go for it.. but i wouldnt.. its just asking for trouble. i also dont think the amount will matter cuz pot smells like pot n dogs have a great sense of smell.

You're wrong. Taping it to your leg is just daft! What
if it falls off? Use your head...I'll give you a
teasing tip if you're determined to do this - Immodium.

i have brought pot on an airplane before, domestic.i gotta say it's just not worth it. weed is just to "big" and smelly. not to mention it will be the scariet flight of your life. i was shaking i was so scared, it was incredably stupid of me. It's just not worth it. if you want pot just buy some wherever you are going.
Before 9/11 it probably wasn't that big of a risk, but now, it would not be wise. 1/8 of pot is not worth your freedom man. DON'T DO IT.
hm I did it within europe about twice and I know of people who take stuff with them, a friend of mine even took some speed to canada, don't ask me why he did that I would never have tken suc ha risk. At the Airports here I hardly ever see any dogs but probably it's a lot different within the US.. :(

Considering u want to bring weed with u from Amsterdam to Rotterdam http://www.drugs-forum.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif u can probably just put it in ur wallet. In ur hidden section. Trie to vacuumpack it or somepthang. something that'll take the smell away.

I would have to advise against Pot on airplanes......I know people who have been busted for trying to sneak even small quanities through....my uncle had a roach.......acid is easy, of course....try thathttp://www.drugs-forum.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif
Do you all think they have an xray that detects pot? Ive got a cousin who brings shit from cali almost monthly and has never had any trouble. Unless you see a canine when you're boarding, then your pocket is a safe enough place.
Im parinoied just do drive with dope in the car! I think id faint at the check point. But if I had too, hahaha! I think I would go all out and hope that no-one would cavity search me-If u catch my drift ; )

My cuz did this like 11 years ago, a little bud in the wallet..and it worked. He took a big risk then, and you would be taking an even greater one now- back then, he got away with it. Now, you'd probably get caught. Plus, if you look nervous, or put out nervous energy, they are more likely to fuck with you.
But its true about the big difference in the attitude of the
cops/customs at home (Netherlands) and abroad... I've never personally
experienced US cops/customs but when i arrived in OZ the attitude of
the customs people was a lot different than at home. They were walking
around with dogs and they kinda freaked me out even though i didn't
have anything on me...
If you really want to take something its always better to mail it ahead of you instead of carrying it along on a plane.

Its not my risk Manda. Im just sugesting he could try it that way, hypotheticly speaking naturaly assuming hes not taking the airplane from a destination in Holland to another destination in Holland.
I dont know if ull get caught. I think it depends on where ur goin. I wouldnt fly in 2 JFK with a bag filled with bud. Bud I wouldnt make a big deal about takin 5 grams with me 2 the south of France.
So: R u familiar with the airport ur flying from 2 the place u r going as in security procedrus and such. If not, dont risk it. If u r, make ur own decision.
4 Instance I flew in2 Bordeaux. I walked past every checkpoint, didnt see any airport personel. But when I flew in 2 what I believe was JFK, I practicly got raped at any given oppertunity. Ofcourse it was just after 911 but i still wouldnt risk it.

swim once said
"ive managed to bring an 1/8 on a plane pretty easily. i covered the bag it was in with vasalene and put it in another bag. my buddy who tends to have pounds on him showed me this trick, and it worked for me and him and a pound is usually pretty stanky. but yea i just put that bag in a pants pocket that was zipped cuz even if they randomly check ur bag they cant go into ur clothes for some reason. before 9/11 i was able to even bring my bubbler along with an ounce but now i would never try it. in all honesty just cuz it can be done doesnt mean it should be done, its pretty risky. oh and taping it to ur leg isnt a smart idea cuz they do randomly pat people downand something taped to ur leg would be easily found during a random check"
Isn't 1 layer of vasseline and extra bag too little for tricking a
dog?? How about some coffe?? Soap?? etc etc.. Your lucky that customs
rarely check you.
I've been to many countries, and it is like upto 50% chance that the customs
stop me (especially the Swedish, they must hate me!!). They have
exrayed me, taken ultra sound.. and I've stripped twice. Half of the
occations when they stopped me they just spoke to me (usually it was
the non-western customs)...
It also happened they x-rayed everything I had with me.. piece by
piece. Even things like books, they watch it, flip pages, and see it is
a book.. still they x-ray it. They have also photo copied every piece
of paper and note I had with me.. checked numbers in the cell phone.. I've also been
accused for carrying drugs when I didn't. I've been told I am arrested,
even if I had nothing. (Yes, Swedes!!).
I've never transported some drug and never will do it. But there are occations I took more cigarettes and alcohol then I was
allowed, then I got everytime through (even if customs saw I got too much). Same when I brought a suitcase full of
pirated CD's.. the time I had the CD's they watched everything but the
suitcase with the discs. Lucky me.
Also in domestic flight I have been stopped. There shouldn't be
customs on the domestic flights. I had to for example to put my hands
inside my pants and shake around in the crotch.
So far I am happy that no customs sticked their hands into my ass.
if your looking to fool the dogs, get a food shrinker (i'm not sure what they are really called, but it's this machine that uses a certain type of plastic bags and sucks all the the air out of the bag and closes it tightly, no air in the inside and no smell can get to the outside) then wash the plastic bag with a mild soapthat the cannabis is in to ensure they is no trace evidence of resin on the bag.
I wouldNEVER try this on a planeand would advise you NOT to do it either, but if you really want to go ahead with it you could try to take a deodorant bottle with a rollerball on top, empty it, don't wash it out, put the cannabis in a bag inside and close it again. Then the drugs aren't visible (I don't know about X-rays though), in an unsuspecting placeand it is said the dogs can'tsmellthem that way. I heard this from people who take weed across the Dutch/German border like this (by train).Controlling must be over 100 times stricter on US airports than at the Dutch/German railroadborders however, and penalties much more severe, so I think it is not worth it at all.
I've flown from England to Spain with 1/8th in my carry on bag. I put the weed in the freezer the night before then put the plastic bag in a tub of Sudocreme (spot cream) and that worked fine. (I know it's worked for some friends too).
I'd only be prepared to do it in Europe myself though, from what I've seen of US security and customs I'd be way too scared. Last time I was in California, some security guard searched my bag because the dog smelled a ham sandwich i had. =/

The security guards in airports aren't looking for drugs - they're
looking for weapons. I have friends who have taken pot and many other
drugs on airplanes without trouble. One thing to look for is the code
SSSS on the bottom right corner of your boarding pass - it's a
semi-random thing that means you're going to be "thoroughly" searched,
which involves the guards looking through your bags, patting you down,
and looking in your shoes. If you're really careful with the pot, they
probably won't detect it, especially if you put it somewhere they're
not going to pat down. Also, I've never seen drug dogs at an airport,
even post 9/11. Everyone else is right, though - the risk, even if it's
not very big, probably isn't worth it.
Buekerc1 Mentioned the vacume sealer and this has worked well for Swim many times. The key is to put it in the bag and seal it with some air in it (So your pot is not squashed). then wash the bag and seal it again in another bag with the vacume, the double layer will fool the dogs It is only a matter of not letting customs see it. I have had my bags searched a number of times but I have never had them ask me to turn out my pockets.

I just got back from Jacksonville and had no problem whatsoever getting a few grams of herb there. I vac sealed it and stuck it in my underware. No problems at all..
On the way back, it obviously wasn't worth the risk.. So I ate the last gram or so and felt the effects ;)

That sux dude. You shouldn't even try smuggling cookies... you're black listed or something.
Alquimista, the hardest drug to smuggle is gotta be coke.
The easiest one is gotta be acid, or just something they wouldn't be
looking for, like peyote or ayahuasca, or some research chemical. If
the don't know what it is, they can't find it.
Though you could try Jhonny Deep's technique from blow...
Don't smuggle weed on a plane dude, send it through the main with some
funny sender address, you can just claim you've never seen it before if
caught at the mail office. Or take some acid and then trade it for
weed.

But if you do...
Wrap it in ziploc baggies inside ziploc baggies. Use rubber gloves. Wipe off everything with alcohol and dip the closed baggies in the alcohol and let it evaporate between each sealing.

xctico you said coke is the hardest to smuggle, why? It doesn't
really smell as strong as weed and it is way smaller.
All k-9's are not trained to smell all substances. They each have 5-10 substances that they are trained to smell. Drugs dogs are trained for drugs and explosive dogs for explosives there is some crossover but not alot. The dogs can only be used effectively for a few hours befor the dog becomes dissinterested or tired.
So many people have tried to use coffee to smuggle that some dogs are trained to smell coffee as a masking agent. Coke is processed with alot of solvents and the solvent smell can travel a long way and is very out of place in a suitcase environment.
Ziplocks still breath. I brought an ounce of weed on a domestic flight in 4 layers of ziplocks (pre 911). The ticket agent asked me if i had cats. I was paranoid for the entire flight. Luckily some guy had an anxiety attack on the plain and attention was focused on him and not the cat smell in my pocket. Vacume bags are the best way to go. They do not breath.
darthcarlos... profesional smugglers use coffee
i was just wandering where you heardabout "professional" smugglers. i have heard of using coffee, but i have never heard someone being referred to as a professional smuggler,what constitutesa professional smuggler?
im not sure but i would guess that 'professional' smuggler is some one, or group of ppl who smuggle illegal contraband for a living as in thats their sole source of income.and use legal buisnessesas afront for it Edited by: dr ACE

This was discussed before! The only safe way to avoid sniffer dogs is
to avoid them. Some countries have them sniffing people, more often
your luggage. They can even smell your bag if you been smoking near it
the day before.
If this topic is still alive which it seems to be i'd defentally lean to no... true drug dogs my only be able to detect 5-10 things but pot is defentally on the list... if your going to do this my advice to you would be to wrap it in ham or something, i was watching cops one time and a guy had a buncha weed in ham sandwiches and the cop said "The ham dosent let the dogs smell the pot"... vaccum sealing it would be a good idea but the bags are always so bulkey... and remember that the side of the vac. sealed back that dosent have the roughness on it (the clear smooth side) is a perfect way for the police to pick up fingerprints if u decide to deny that its yours... all in all dont do it stay free

trying to carry drugs on a plane is stupid when you look at what the penalty might be. Especially if you are traveling over seas. some countries drug laws and sentencing are midevil. one month in a turkisk prison whould be worste than5 years in the states. If you really need the drugs so bad, then find a connection where you are going to.
enquirewithin... "They can even smell your bag if you been smoking near it the day before"
those dogs wish they could smell a bag if it had cannabis smoke near it the day before andwhere did you hear that?
swim had been smokingwith a friend in the car and the car reaked and they drove very slowly past a drug bust on the side of the road, and we watched the dogs, they couldn't smell anything, given there is metal seperating the two; but give me break, the smoke from the day before?

This is NOT hearsay, but personal experince! Driving past in a car is different...
I went through customs in Australia (on a leg of leg of an
international flight). There was nothing in my luggage, but they
stopped me because the dogs had 'reacted" to my bag. They thoroughly
searched my possesions. They found a lighter which they tested (they
used a swab) which came up as positive presence of hash. (I'm not sure
how, but they could tell that in a couple of minutes.) [See this post
http://www.drugs-forum.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7495&KW=sniffer]
I talked my way out of it (the dog was not in that part of the airport)
by saying I'd been in a backpackers hostel the night before and had a
smoke.
Luckily for me, I had been told of this happening by a friend from New
Zealand. He NEVER smokes, but was stopped for the same reason. His coat
smelled to the dogs-- he had been in the same room the night before as
some smokers.
I don't believe that coffee or ham can mask the smell. You need to know
which airports use sniffer dogs a lot-- most have them but the volume
of traffic is too high in many places for them to bother...
Maybe you still don't believe me-- it certainly gave me a nasty shock! Be cautious!
Edited by: enquirewithin
interesting story, didn't mean to be skeptical.you had a "backpackers hostel"? it sounds more like you had a all out roast feast if the dogs had smelled thesmoke from the prior day. ride on tho!

Not really.http://www.drugs-forum.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif And my friend NEVER smokes. Believe it or not dogs have a completely different sense of smell to humans, but, as I said this has been discussed elswhere in this forum.

//-->Hey,
additude has a lot to do with it, keeping weight on you on the flight
just requires confidence in the face of suspecting authority and a good
technique like inside a leather belt for carry on or the old double bag
w/ vaseline and then pop the top off the baby powder and push it in
there snapping the top back on in checked luggage. That was the SWIM
technique before 9/11 and remains the same w/ no complications except a
rat (sell out, not the rodent) years ago. Of course I always travel
with only my passport which says "the bearer is on an official
assignment for the US government" and that kinda helps when I'm
questioned for search although I have only been questioned about
weapons cause I carry them on the plane, actually they were stowed but
I walked them out on the tarmac to the belly to witness the loading.
I'd rather not go into detail on where the passport comes from but it
is ligit. Bottom line if you are not confident in your method, just
don't risk it. That in itself will screw you, you have to be confident
in your technique.
I'm rambling again.......... what the hell was the topic??? haha

I would have thought US customs are very tight at the moment. Other
countries to beware of: Japan, Australia, NZ (especially the last)
shove that stuff where the sun dont shine
If you tape it to your leg then make sure you have absolutely nothing
on you that will set off the metal detector as you walk through it.
Nowadays, if it goes off, you are being searched. It's not like it used
to be where you'd turn around, take off whatever you had that was metal
and then walk back through and try again. If it goes off then you will
be patted down. I just got back from a flight 3 days ago and I forgot
to take my belt off, and the detector went off. They patted me down
completely, even the inside of my legs.

simple answer, NO.
You could melt wax onto the pills ( to handle any scent) and then put the wax blob in something like a deoderant, If you have a deoderant that has a wheel on it to raise and lower the deoderant, use the wheel to raise the deoderant up and out of the plastic housing and then drop your waxed pills in and put deoderant back into housing. You could use a chapstick container if it is only two pills.
