Flying with CO2 'bombs'

[splat]

What is the airline policy here?

How many of you jetsetters have flown with your bombs?

 

Off to Sani next week, and need to know before I pack.

 

(gotta be careful with the wording here - don't want to get arrested at check in!)

I believe you cannot get away with bombs on the plane, CO2 or real.

[Gman1834]

never thought of that...

I thought the CO2 bombs were very similar to the gas cannisters used to inflate the life jackets...

Always fly with mine in my bag with the bikes, still here !

Okay, try this: carry it hand luggage. When asked what it is, tell them honestly that its a bomb. Then check the reaction

Seriously, I checked for last year's Argus. You cant fly with a CO2 Bomb. But when you get to Sani or send with someone who is driving down.

 

For Argus riders: send them with your bike if your bike is going via elliots or whatever.

Ask holy. I saw him inhale a CO2 bomb the once. Dunno if it helped him fly though...

Yes, they are identical to the ones in the life vests on the aircraft. I don't see why the SAA can have them onboard and not the passengers.....A typical case of f*cking joe public around.....Do as we say and not as we do

TIP: next time you take a flight smuggle your empty canisters onboard and exchange them with the full ones in the life vests

Well naturally, otherwise there wouldn't be room for many passengers with people taking weed and coke on the planes

 

[Jon0]

and when the plane goes down in the water??

Why worry about things beforehand? Tackle each task as it presents itself

I gorgot that they have to compensate for the weight of the illegal 2kg parcel on board.

 

If the captain smokes that sh!t in midflight it gives a whole new meaning to flying high
