Can I take my vibrator through airport security?

If you’re going on a spicy holiday, seeing your long distance lover or simply need your bedroom bestie with you at all times, it can be hard to know whether you can take your vibrator through airport security. Girls Get Off answer your question below. 


Name something more stressful than taking your vibrator through airport security. 


Your entire family coming for Christmas dinner? Seeing a line of traffic 100 metres long when you have an urgent meeting in 5 minutes? Convincing your friend not to go back to her awful ex-boyfriend? 


Alright, you’ve made a valid case; there are definitely situations that are more stressful than taking your vibrator through airport security, but that doesn’t mean the act comes without heart palpitations. 


From the moment you pop your bag in that grey tray to the second, it is marked as suspicious and needs investigation, those cortisol levels have never been higher.


What will the aviation officer think when they come across your pretty pink sex toy? Your kids might see it, granny, a couple of people ahead of you - oh god, and then there are the 100 other people in line. 


Red cheeks incoming.

 

Thankfully, you never need to have that stress again because we are breaking down the do’s and don’ts of taking your vibrators through airport security.

 

DO: Relax

Everyone take a deep breath. The first thing you need to know is you are perfectly within your rights to bring a sex toy through airport security. 


Whether in your checked bag or carry-on, it is okay to travel with Wanda, Missy Mini, Polly, Tiff, Deedee, and all the toys in between. 


DON’T: Freak (save it for the sheets) 

Going through airport security can be complicated enough. Is your mascara a liquid? What about brow gel? Do you have to take your shoes off? Oh, and does your laptop go in or out of the bag? 


Mascara and brow gel are liquids; you’ll be told if you need to take your shoes off, and yes, your laptop is always out. As for sex toys, you can keep them hidden away in your bag - unless, of course, you want to show them off. Then get them out, queen! 


DO: Use their services


If your bag happens to raise the alarms, it most likely has nothing to do with your sex toys, but either way, you can ask to go through your bag with aviation security in a private area. 


If your bag happens to raise the alarms, it most likely has nothing to do with your sex toys, but before you let the stress hives win, remember, just like Pitbull, you got, you got options, queen. 


If you're more on the observant side - or have ever been stuck in an airport security line for a ridiculous amount of time without your phone - you'll have noticed there are little booths at the end of each X-ray scanner. 


They are private screening areas that you can opt to use. Simply tell the officer you would prefer a more low-key area, and they will take you into the booth and search your bag there.

 

DON'T: Pull a sneaky 

Wearable vibrators tick a lot of boxes. They're spicy, make you feel like you've got the biggest secret since that fella discovered sliced bread, AND make you feel like a 10 out of 10. 


Unfortunately, they don't tick the box of "things you can wear through airport security". So before you go popping a WeVibe in your underwear or a booty plug in your peach, take a minute. 


Keep them in your bag and save the spice for post security - you'll thank us later. 


DO: Remember they've seen it all before 


We can't really expand on this anymore than that. Aviation security officers have seen it all, you can relax knowing even if they do spot your pretty pink vibrator, it is the least of their worries. 


Happy holidaying queens!
