My gf and I left Seattle with a couple edibles in one of our carry ons and had no issues going through TSA


TSA doesn't care.

I flew to LA with 500 bucks worth of edibles in my carry on.

I was even flagged and had my bag gone through.

Carry on you have to go through the x ray



Checked bags are x-rayed as well. And if they see something out of sorts, they're going to open the bag and go through it. I've had the ticket from them in my checked bag a few different times.

It goes under much less scrutiny because you can’t access the bag during flight.


Once you're through the TSA line, your carry-on isn't scrutinized at all unless you do something really stupid.

Put them in your makeup bag amongst your other lipsticks and makeup items.

I'd check it to be safe. You may get unlucky and have a carry-on with drugs in it when the random drug dog is walking through the terminal.

They aren't drug dogs.

Yeah there is basically no risk here unless you are trying to pack a pound of flower.

I don’t even change out the packaging. I often buy beer or bourbon that I can’t get at home and that gets my checked bag searched about 75% of time. And that bottle is basically almost always right next to some weed gummies.

Always cracks me up when that TSA bag search notice is basically sitting on top of my weed. Lol.

My only concern is TSA stealing it. Haven’t run into that yet.

Yeah, but they'll still make your butthole pucker up. I was flying out of Atlanta a couple of years ago and had some in my backpack. The line we were in funneled into a room where a guy was walking back and forth with a dog. Not gonna lie, I got a little paranoid the damn dog kept slowing down when he got near me.

I know what you mean. When I posted I had 500 bucks of edibles on me and was flagged....well, dealing with TSA was no biggie as i joked with him as he handled my "candy" bag.

Well, I get to my gate after some breakfast and I nodded off.

My carry on is on the floor. Out of nowhere a dog is smelling my bag. I woke up but kept my cool as they kept walking by.

I'll say that's the most I've puckered in a long time. Haha

I just ship mine home via Fed Ex. Pay cash at the drop off point and use a fake name as sender.

do risk reward analysis.

what chance of prison are you willing to take so as to feed your addiction?

do a 12 step program instead.

Its actually preferred in the carry on. It also highly depends on the TSA squad you're dealing with. I've heard some nightmare stories.

Fact, dogs can only be trained to find one smell. Any Tsa dog in a legal state airport is trained to find bombs. They will not alert to weed.

In a non legal state there could be chance a local yocal law man might have a drug sniffing dog.

So if your flying out of a legal state with a recreational amount no worries. Tsa is looking for bombs and you can't be arrested anyway.

I flew back from Denver to Dallas with a gram of wax. I used a deodorant stick, pulled the white deodorant out, placed the wax (wrapped up in tin foil) at the bottom and placed the deo stick back into the plastic, and pushed it back down. Didn't have any issues. Edibles and weed may be more difficult because the edibles come in bags, and the weed smells.

Thats true too. If TSA nabs you with weed, the worst they'll do is call the local authorities, and it its legal in your area you have no worries. TSA don't care about weed. Its explosives they worry about.

Flew out of Orlando a few weeks back and they had everyone walk through a staging area in twos while the sniffing dog followed along. Was a sight to see.

Before it was my turn to go through I witnessed a positive and they pulled the guy to the side. Don't know what happened to him.

Edibles in a sealed ziploc inside of checked luggage. Wouldn't try anything else, personally.
