[Chief Smoker]

I read a great email newsletter today from South Beach Smokes detailing the best way to smoke your e-cig on an airplane. I've smoked my e-cigarettes on a plane before and the flight attendant was a little surprised but then thought it was cool, she must have been a smoker

Nice read for those who are smoking their E-Cigs on a plane...

The laws that ban smoking in public areas (including airplanes) are very specific in that they only target the smoking of tobacco products. The electronic cigarette does not contain any tobacco whatsoever, and only dispenses the liquid nicotine in the form of water vapor. Additionally, since the electronic cigarette is not actually burning anything when you inhale it, no smoke is produced and therefore, smoking it will not set off a smoke alarm or produce the odor of traditional cigarettes. This clever design allows for an inconspicuous smoking experience that is perfectly legal on airplanes.

How to Smoke Your E-Cig on a Plane
It is important to note that because this technology is so new, many people do not know what the electronic cigarette is and using one on an airplane will probably attract some unwanted attention. Here are some tips for using your electronic cigarette up in the air:

* Let the flight attendant know how your electronic cigarette is different from traditional cigarettes. Asking for permission before using it will prevent an altercation with the flight staff or other passengers.

* Hold the electronic cigarette by its tip. By covering up the indicator light on the end you will draw less attention to yourself. Also, holding the electronic cigarette in this unusual way will prevent other passengers from assuming that you are smoking.

* Refer to it as a nicotine-inhaling device instead of a cigarette. By avoiding the word "cigarette," you will probably have more luck getting permission from the flight staff.

* Finally, when all else fails take your electronic cigarette to the lavatory. It may not be the most pleasant place to smoke, but you will definitely avoid the unwanted attention. Remember that the electronic cigarette does not produce smoke so it will not set off the bathroom smoke alarm.

What i liked was that these guys, South Beach, automatically send you the refill cartridges if you want that option, which means i don't run out, and don't have to keep going back to the stupid site to reorder, it just happens, presto! Perfect!

I LOVE this brand! I haven't yet smoked on a plane but while waiting for a friend I tried to smoke in the airport and got some very dirty looks because most people don't know what they are yet or whether they are dangerous for them to inhale. I usually don't cover the lit end because I don't want people to think I am hiding a real one or smoking something greener if you know what I mean. I don't usually exhale any water vapor anyway so I am not too concerned yet. I will have a long flight soon though so hoping they won't try and confiscate it. I think the biggest concern authorities have is whether terrorists, or anyone for that matter, will use them as a cover to make a small pipe bomb or something. We will see! I am very curious to hear anyone else's plane story. Happy Smurfing!

That means e-cigarettes are not yet allowed at public places...

the electronic cigarette can be used in many public places including the plane, but according to the post, it seems that most of the people in the plane do not know about the electronic cigarette. but thank you for your post all the same.

Perhaps it is a good thing, at least, I think so

Great advice. I didn't think of covering the tip. I have gone to the restroom to vape, however.
