Taking a pump on a plane

Anything I should be worried about?

Carry on safe?

Checked Luggage?

Dismantle it first?

Have a good story about erectile dysfunction and your urologist should they pull you out for questioning.

I’ll be traveling by plane in a few months. I figured I’ll just say that any PE devices are sex toys.

That works too. They’ll be too creeped out to look for the cocaine stash. Well done.

Man you’re taking a hell of a risk with all the bullshit that we have to put on with so far to travel nowadays.

Can’t you mail it to yourself by fedex overnight air shipping?

That is what I would do.

I seriously don’t know what advise to give except that one.

Later bro and Good Luck

You better tell us how it went.

I just put it in checked luggage. I’ve traveled on planes a lot with a cylinder in my checked luggage without a problem, including flights where I had a one-way ticket that compelled the TSA people to search every inch of my carry-on bags. I don’t take the pressure gauge when I travel, because I think the shape of the gauge in an X-ray would set off alarms.

Regardless, it’s not illegal in the US to travel with a penis pump, just damn embarrassing if the TSA unpacks it in public. It may be an issue when traveling to other countries, like maybe a conservative Muslim nation. In that case, call the country’s consulate closest to you and ask: “uh yeah, I’m wondering: is it okay for me to put my penis in a pressurized cylinder until it’s a turgid hunk of man meat while I’m in Saudi Arabia?” And then just see what they say. Actually…don’t do that. Say: “A friend of mine is wondering if…”

Here’s another thread on this topic: Travelling on planes to other countries with PE equipment

Ike,

If you take the cylinder without the pressure gauge, how do you achieve suction? Suck through the tube?

I’ve travelled with sex toys before. The cylinder has a big gimoungous sticker “Dr. Joel Kaplan penis enlarger” with a guy on it.

Maybe disassemble it and keep the gauge in the carry on?

:rolling:

“turgid hunk of man meat” :rolling:

I wouldn’t take it on the plane! They might think it’s some kind of weapon, and take you into custody, until further investigation. It might make it to the news. That would be a mess.

I’ve carried my tube and pump in a checked-in bag several times. Never a problem. I quit taking it in carry-on after I got “outed” in a long and busy line at the TSA checkpoint. This woman pulled out the tube and lifted it up for all to see. And fellow passengers did gape.

“What’s this?” she asked. “SCUBA equipment?”

“Yes,” I said.

The guy (TSA) behind her signaled to her to let me go. I’ve always wondered if he was a pumper.

Don’t do it baby! It can be really embarrassing man.

“Its not mine baby I swear!”

I just suck through the tube and only do low-pressure pumping while traveling. For me, that’s just enough pressure to keep the cylinder pressurized (depressurized?) while I’m erect in the cylinder. I’ve pumped enough with a gauge that I know how it feels when I’m over 3-4 hg.

And I’d probably want to remove that big Dr. Joel sticker. Or, make a joke of it. Say you’re going to a friend’s wedding and the guys are giving him sex toys at the bachelor party — kinda like women get lingerie. Of course, clean it out first.

Seriously, I would not want to be in the situation of having to explain, joke, or lie about anything like that. But there is nothing illegal about it, so just stick it in checked luggage. If it is somehow found by security, they might have a laugh, but you won’t be there to suffer the embarrassment. A security guy would have to be a real moron to suspect it as a threat, weapon, illegal item, or anything of that sort, which is the ONLY thing they are concerned about.

On the other hand, carry on’s are often searched by hand, and you don’t want to be there when they pull your penis pump out of your bag. You just don’t. Imagine all the other people (men, women and children) standing in line with you!

A real moron worried about a possible weapon of mass destruction?

Sounds vaguely familiar.

Of course, building a weapon of ass destruction is completely different.
