To take vapes through security, ensure the device is powered off and pack it in your carry-on, as FAA regulations prohibit e-cigarettes in checked luggage. Liquid refills or e-juices should comply with the TSA liquids rule, meaning they must be in containers of 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) or less in a clear, quart-sized bag. Always declare any vape equipment during the screening process for a smoother security check.
