Worst outcome if I bring SN on plane?

What's the worst that can happen if I bring my sn on a plane? Will they just confiscate it or can I get in more trouble?

Worst case scenario they'll confiscate it, detain and question you. Depends if they think it's drugs or not

Can they detain me if I put it in my checked in baggage? So I'd miss my fight?

Yeah, if they think it's something suspicious

I wouldn't risk it if I were you.

I have no idea but it would raise suspicion. Think it shouldn't be illegal though and it has legitimate, regular uses.

Read that, considering that SN is both oxidizing and toxic.

The FAA enforces these regulations and issues fines to passengers that violate the rules

i had to ditch my SN before getting on the the plane. It's a poison, that's why...

I wouldn't risk carrying it on a plane. It would look pretty suspicious as a substance in an x-ray image I would think. I know it's not illegal but I would think they might want to test it and I would definitely think they would ask you what you were using it for. Not sure 'meat curing' would sound all that convincing.

I suppose you could post it to yourself but that's probably quite risky also. Still- it travels through the post to us- so- maybe it would be ok.

Most airlines will tell you and ask you to accept and confirm their terms and conditions that you cannot and will not bring a poision or hazard item with you onto the plane in your hand luggage when you order the ticket or/and during mobile check in. Now for checked luggage, I'm not sure. If I knew it would go through, I would bring my SN with me in checked luggage and suicide in my favourite location.

Yeah. I personally would just mail it to myself (if possible) if I was in this situation. It's not illegal, so I don't see why mail would be an issue. Correct me if I'm wrong.

But TSA is a different story and I would not bring a sketchy powder that is also poisonous on a plane. I've been able to easily BS my way to get stuff like SN and nitrogen thru vendors. But pretty sure things wouldn't go as smoothly if I ended up getting interrogated by TSA and had to explain why I had SN.

Yes- it isn't illegal- although I imagine people are becoming more aware of it now (and it's use...) You would need to declare what was inside the parcel on a customs form- so- this could be an issue. I think some manufacturers label their parcels as sodium salt- so this could be an option. It's also an oxidizer- so I'm not sure if it (officially) needs to be labelled as such. I really don't know to be honest. I suppose the issue would be if they opened it and found it wasn't labelled correctly. Maybe that would raise suspicion.
