Checking E-Cigarette Regulations When Traveling
Check e-cigarette regulations in public places before traveling to avoid breaking the law. Can't use on flights.

Before traveling, it is important to check the regulations regarding the use of electronic cigarettes in public places in order to avoid breaking the law. When boarding a plane, it is important to inquire with officials about the ban on electronic cigarettes.


Is it possible to use e-cigarettes on an airplane?


Passengers on flights are not allowed to smoke e-cigarettes on any British airline. EasyJet and Ryanair both permit passengers to carry e-cigarettes in their hand luggage, but strict no-smoking policies apply to e-cigarettes.


Carrying electronic cigarettes will also not be allowed for check-in procedures. If "you have smoked or attempted to smoke on previous flights," Ryanair reserves the right to refuse passengers. If you are caught smoking an electronic cigarette during a flight, you may face a substantial fine or be banned from the airline.


A man has been banned for life from boarding Spirit Airlines flights after using an e-cigarette in the plane's bathroom, which led to an emergency landing. Checking whether e-cigarettes are allowed in the country you are flying to is also worth considering as over 45 countries have already banned their use.


Is it permissible to use electronic cigarettes at the airport?


All airports have banned the use of electronic cigarettes inside, just like regular tobacco cigarettes. Some airports have designated smoking areas outside the terminal buildings where passengers can use them.


What forms of travel allow electronic cigarettes?


In the UK, electronic cigarettes are also banned on buses and train carriages. Although many train companies and stations had previously allowed e-cigarettes to be smoked on platforms, most have now also banned them. In the capital, London Underground services also prohibit the use of e-cigarettes.


Although electronic cigarettes are not illegal, drivers who are distracted by the vapors from these devices may be charged with driving without due care and attention. If the police believe that the smoke could affect your ability to drive safely, they can issue an on-the-spot fine of £100.


In more serious or contested cases in court, this charge can result in a maximum fine of £5000, or even a driving ban imposed by the court.


Where in the UK can one vape e-cigarettes?


The government has not formally banned the use of electronic cigarettes in any location, leaving it up to property owners to decide. However, many private and public organizations have already prohibited the use of e-cigarettes, so it is advisable to check with officials before using them in such places.
