The Proper Way to Take a Vibrator on a Plane

Traveling with Sex Toys

Traveling with sex toys, vibrators in particular, has the potential to turn from greatly anticipated vacation to sexually humiliating nightmare rather quickly. Airport security is working more diligently to find strange, possibly dangerous, items in passenger's luggage these days.
 Here's the right way to travel with your favorite sex toy.

Packing sex toys and vibrators
You should never just toss your toys into your suitcase. Each toy should be packed with precision. There are two kinds of packing materials to take into consideration.

1. A cloth bag. Any soft, clean cloth bag will do. You can even use those purple drawstring bags that Crown Royal Whiskey comes in. A cloth bag will protect your vibrator from getting travel grime on it as well as keep any existing cords from getting tangled in your personal items. Note about ordinary cloth bags. These will not keep your vibrators from showing up on the x-ray machine.

2. Cleverly disguised sex toys. You can purchase vibrators that look like ordinary hair brushes, a tube of lipstick or even a sports massager. Typically
security sees these things and pays them no attention.

Where to pack a vibrator
First of all never pack your vibrator in your carry on luggage unless you have no other choice and I can't image a scenario where you will be tortured and shot if you don't bring it.

If your trip is so short that you don't have any luggage to check in then check in your carry on and only carry on what you can put in your pockets.

In other words don't ever carry on a vibrator or sex toy, always check them in. When you go through security checks at the airport, your carry on bag, shoes and anything in your pockets have to be put in small bins and passed through an x-ray machines. Some toys have the potential to look like weapons as they are x-rayed.

Any questionable items that pass through the machine are alerted to security officials who will pull you aside and examine every item you brought with you. This may mean your vibrator will be on public display and if it is a really strange sex toy you may have to explain what it is and what you are doing with it.

I always tucked my small toy in my makeup bag. All the various-shaped cosmetics helped disguise what else I was carrying :) I was told to put one battery in backward, to avoid it buzzing around in my bag. Great article and great topic!

Interesting article, even if I'll never personally be able to take advantage of your wisdom, Kelly. Unless I take along something for someone *else* to use.

Very useful information, Kelly. When I travel, I usually leave the sex toys at home. But if I do I must remember to bring the boyfriend.

Great advice. I wonder if I can take vibrator with me to basic training. After all I am going to be deprived of sex for 9 weeks.
