I was wondering if anyone has actually vaped in a airplane lavatory. Someone told me that the alarm would most likely sound and you'd be fined. They said it might not go off if you blow the vapor directly into toilet. Kind of unappealing though. Your thoughts?

That's what he did. He said he blew the vape into his jacket. Someone on here (forget who) said they had an empty can of soda with a straw and blew the vape through the straw into the can.

On the train I hold onto my (thermal) coffee container after Ive finished my hot/steaming coffee. Unless someone is staring directly at you (which does NOT happen in NYC LOL) they see a container and what appears to be coffee steam -- I guess. Nobody has ever approached me nor questioned it. There's an interesting lesson here in sociology.

Found these in Australia...life savers as the Sydney Airport is completely non-smoking (arrived late for a departure). They're also available in Singapore & Germany (but not here)...not the greatest but they worked just fine on long-haul flights BV (before vaping).

I remember an old work colleague gave up smoking, using one of those in the late 90's.

If you just need the nic hit, what Siam Diesel posted is perfect. I fly a lot, and just stealth vape in my seat or the toilet. MTL, hold it in, breathe through the nose. The person next to you won't even know, and there is no way you'll set off any alarm in the toilet

Hell, just put a couple of drops of juice on your tongue. Works like a treat!
