Traveling with sex toys

Postby Kycouple78 » Fri Sep 30, 2016 1:31 pm

We love our toys and we have lots. But we are a little nervous to fly with them. Does anyone have any experience or tips or advice? We don't fly much so we have no idea what to expect

Take the batteries out of them in transport, if they are battery power. If found in a random search, you can be rest assured it's not going to be the first for any customs officer. I wouldn't worry about it, you will be fine.

Just as northernlightscpl said, we've also traveled often with our toys - vibes, dildos, butt plugs, you name it and have never had a problem. Maybe once we've had a note from the TSA that said they'd inspected our bags but we just chuckled to ourselves and hoped that we put a smile on the agent's face.

We only had one potential embarrassing moment when we were traveling with a group on a business conference coming back from Mexico. We had no idea that they were checking some luggage on the way out of the country in front of everyone. We were worried that they might choose us in front of those other business people with whom we were traveling, but fortunately we weren't "chosen" for inspection.

No worries, bring them in your bags and you'll be fine!

Thanks! So if we have to remove the batteries is that just so they don't come on by mistake? Or are batteries not allowed in your luggage ?

Good advice! I've never removed the batteries. Never been an issue, but I can see how it could be.

Along the lines of toys...How about lube? Is it bring your own lube or does DP have lube on site?

We usually try to avoid check bags in order to get out of the airport quickly. If it's bring your own lube we may need check the goodies...

It's a bring your own lube kinda place. They sell it in the gift shop for a ridiculous amount of $$$$. Same goes for sunscreen.

we always bring toys and I always surprise the wife with a new one as well to give her a a little "surprise". I broke one out on the beds at the DP Jacuzzi and was stunned at how much a particular new toy lit up. Wife was quickly obvious to this but it provided a great illuminated view for a bunch of couples watching lol. Several remarked how much they enjoyed the "show" and wanted information on the toy. My wife always worries about bringing toys and clearing customs but never a problem.
We always check that bag with our lube and sunscreen but I really want to avoid checking a bag since it has cost us serious time retrieving it in customs trying to make a connecting flight home to Boston. I'm not sure how TSA will deal with my wife's bag if she has 3 or 4 nice toys in a carry-on this fall :D . The new rechargeable ones are amazing and tend to hold up better over time and are fast becoming her "go to" toys. The rabbit though is still a top three as I'm sure most women agree.

It's not illegal to carry those toys, as long as none appear to look like weapons! :D
That said, you may have to deal with a good deal of personal "exposure" if/when they take the toys out and inspect them, one by one. :shock:

I have always advocated to just put the toys in a 1 quart clear ziplock and place it at the top of your luggage. Security and TSA agents can then see right away what the package contains and they will rarely if ever remove it from your suitcase for further inspection ;)

What if....hypothetically.....the 1 quart ziplock isn't big enough. Asking for a friend.
