flying with herb

I have some (a little) experience taking cannabis on planes. A few years ago now when I was younger,dumber and had less to loose.

On a cheap flight from UK-Belgium. I took a small amount packed into the back of a lip balm dispenser packed into my toiletries bag. I figured the smell of shower gel,cologne, shampoo & deodorant would help cover the smell. Not the most sophisticated of methods but it worked and made the trip a lot more enjoyable. The 3 grams or so I packed in there lasted me and my australian friend the whole weekend and went well with all the beer and chocolate.

This time was accidental. I had been in amsterdam a few days smoking and spending up large. Moments after arriving at amsterdam train station a departing spanish dude gave me about 10 bags of various bud/hash. He said "I'd take these if I could! Do you guys want them?" I gladly accepted and these were enjoyed along with the many other strains I smoked that weekend. I kept count of how many bags I had and ended up with 50+. When it came time to depart I counted my inventory to discover I was missing a bag. I politely asked a coffee shop owner before unloading my luggage contents onto the coffeeshop floor looking for the missing bag. I couldn't find it and had to head to the station to catch the train to the airport so gave up looking and assumed I'd smoked or misplaced it.

At the airport I gave my stash away to a group of excited young tourists coming out of arrivals. Me and my mate happily jumped on our flight from amsterdam to heathrow.

Later that night I was looking through my amsterdam souvenirs reminiscing when I discovered a bag of hash folded inside my coffeeshop guide map. Holy crap I thought. Officially smuggled hash across international borders.

In my opinion taking bud on national transport is child's play. It's only when you go international it gets messy. I'm not sure what it's like in the USA but I can't imagine there would be much security flying interstate. I found there was virtually no border security around much of europe.

Be careful...it doesn't matter where your going or who you are...you are a suspected terrorist in there eyes and you will be searched or scanned.

I head they don't mess with 215....probably because they hand over arrests to the locals. That being said, I still won't do it....you never know.

Since 911 do you think they are looking for pot?
Put it in your carry on, tripple vacuum bagged. Just make sure the package is not in the shape of a gun or bomb.

Seems like it wouldn't be wise to take anything on interstate planes in the US. I remember stopping over at LAX on my way to heathrow. 12 hours in a stuffy room... We then had to line up like cattle and get our fingerprints & photos taken. No chance to have a cigarette.

LAX airport has my fingerprints now along with my name & photo? :O whats to stop them selling that information to my countries police force?

Bangkok stopover lounge was much more friendly. They had a cactus garden / smoking area.

That was post 9/11. Flying through the US means giving up your fingerprints. I can't imagine what interstate security is like.

are you a medical card holder?

my friend called the Port of Portland to ask about flying and they said to make a copy of your medical card and put that with your meds in your checked luggage. NV is a medical state, and you really only get checked leaving your airport.

also, if all else fails, go to a nice hotel or casino and ask the valet parking guys, they know where everything is.
yes nevada is a mmj but they dont reconize other states MMJ ppl. b carefull its really depends on the cop and how ya handel yourself if cought. act like a dick well ya get the big metro dick inserted, act like a person treat them with respect and maybe they'll let ya off. i've knowen a few nv mmj ppl to be pulled over holding product plaed on trunk untill cop runs check to be sure your current. and he'll give it back i've seen it once herd about it twice.

How committed are you? How bad do you want it? Cause you can always use your prison wallet .... Just sayin. Think I'd just rather wait for the band to come thru my local area though LOL.

You don't think you can find anything pre-show in the parking lot?

What didm said, i fly outta here with 4 to 6 ozs in my carry on when I go home for Christmas and other holidays. A vacuum sealed half between 5 copies of high times in your check bag won't be a problem I don't imagine. If i was flying outta any place but here id be terrifed to bring as much as i usually do. Good luck.

PS there's lots of dead heads on the boards, and I'd imagine that a few will be there.

dude, just hit shake down 3-4hrs before the show
drugs everywhere in Furthur's lot scene

I surely know what is on Further lot, as this has been my home for years. Not just Furthur but where ever Phil is for at least 10 Years. Well there lies my problem everyone will drive with powders but no one will drive through the surrounding states with herb not even NV for that matter.
If i liked Ketamine i would be ok but I don't. Pot and LSD for me and I got the L on lock I just need good mediicain to go with it. Sorry to be such a East Coaster but most people grow SHITTY herb out there. Not everyone i know there are the pros our there and many of them ore on here, but that herb doesn't make it far. My wife is in cali now and everytime I talk to here she says how much she misses home and the good herb. Sorry west coast it is just the truth. All the shitty herb I see around here comes from out there. So there lies my problem with flying with herb.

So I think I will roll a few dubes and put them in my check in a Cig pack. I did that for my wife so my homies out there and see what real herb is (hehehe). She had no problem so I will do the same and also overnight a half to my self. Big Dubbies in Vegas. Can't wait.

If any fellow heads are going to be there, Ill be the spun-out loud mouth east coaster smoking hogs-legs of ChemD. Come Join. Well get lifted.
 
What about puting it in a zip lock and then shoving that zip bag into a full lotion container submerged in it in your checked luggage? Was thinking about that....nothing crazy big just a few grams?
