SN on plane

[Daniel32]

Hi,
I'm planning on bringing my SN from Ireland to London. I will put it in my checked luggage. Will this be checked at the airport?
Thanks

Hmmm.. depends on if they run it through their xray machine I guess.. If they do run it through their xray, it will most likely show up as an anomaly which they are trained to look for and inspect further.

I don't know the answer as to what will happen or what they'd see it as or even question it. It depends on a lot I guess. I'm fairly curious to know how it goes.

I would think they'll ask you about any white powder or chemical substance in your luggage that they might find.
If its a small amount they probaly wont even notice it though.
Probably a good idea to have a reason why you are carrying it ready, such as for your meat curing hobby or something, idk.
Afaik it's legal to import for personal use. But they might still confiscate it for further testing ( and you might be waiting a long time to get it back or never see it again).

were you successful?

Can you do this from Poland to the US? :) I was thinking about putting it under the plane~ Or should I put it as a carry-on? I wouldn't want to be held there if it doesn't work~ >_<

btw, I tried to get it mailed from Poland to the US, but the Polish mail worker refused to let it be packed, so it's just stuck there rn~

Off-Topic: oh man, something's wrong with my brain. Every time this thread title pops up, I am thinking the same thing: "Oh wow, they want to drink SN on a plane, that's such a horrible idea. Think of all the vomiting alone..." and then I start reading and remember what it is about...

Everything goes through x ray. It is CAA rule after 9/11 to look for exploaive materials.

It will only show an organic substance. Not a powder, just a bottle with organic substance. Unfortunetly it can be tested as all the explosives are organic as well. It depends, an experienced x ray operator should let it go as there would be no detonator, battery etc but unexperienced can stop it. Also they can test it for drugs but mostly they will run a gog around and dog should not give any indecation for drugs.

SN is considered an inorganic salt, would it still register as organic? Just curious

Interesting....can be green then. Well it should be even better.

Did you by chance order from WC? I'm trying to see if it's worth ordering from them.

yes, but you need a contact in Poland to get it for you~ Only issue I have is getting it from there to here now tho~ :/

Beat me and did it better than I would have

i would not use it on a plane it way to many ppl around

if you want to import it then dont have it in the carry on since they are looking for stuff like this in the xray so there will be questions
