Weeds on a plane... to australia

I hate flying. I have to go to Australia. That's a 25 hour flight, not counting lay-overs. I have two goals for this flight: a) to safely arrive in Australia with a bag of weed and b) to bring baked goods on the plane so I can stay high for 25 hours and beat boredom.

The best plan I have for bringing weed to Australia is to vacuum seal an 8th (ideally a zip+) or so in several bags (of which only the inside of the innermost bag will be exposed to weed) and tape that to my nuts and wear some tight briefs. Problem: if I get passed regular security and encounter a dog, that dog will attack my balls.

As far as the baked goods go, I could make cookies or brownies or whatever and just stow this in my carry-on bag. Security may be mildly suspicious leading them to smell the treat, which will immediately give me away. Additionally, if a dog smells my baked goods, it will probably go nuts. Enter the jalapeno poppers. I've heard peppers mess up a dog's sense of smell, so should I just bake jalapeno poppers filled with weed-butter/oil? If I just made cookies, I could stuff them in some chips-ahoy boxes making them look somewhat innocuous. Alternatively, I could just put hash oil into gel-caps.

The bottom line is: how common are dogs for international flights? If there are no dogs, I should be fine. But if there are dogs, what can and can't they smell? Can they identify weed cookies? If a dog barks at me, will I be searched regardless? And punishment-wise, if I get caught with weed brownies, do they do some chemical analysis on that stuff and punish me according to how much weed was found in the cookies or do they just take it and let me go? Could I get arrested for more than a day if I get busted with an 8th of weed and/or a batch of brownies with a zip baked in? I really need to land in Australia at the right time...

This is dumb idea, but I want to see if anyone's tried anything like this successfully... I know it's not hard to bring weed/weed-cookies on domestic flights because there are no dogs, but international flights? Anyhow, thanks for the advice!

im not shure about international flights...but ive sucsessfully smuggled less than an 8th of skunk from London to Edinbourough, and leeds, and from amsterdam to london....i never even saw a dog.

where are u flying from?

Your ass not mine. Go for it.

I've done a lot of international flying and have never seen a dog in the outbound security. I wouldn't think twice about bringing some goodies on the plane to eat while your in the air. As for incomming security, it depends on the country. I go to China a lot and going through their customs is unbelievably easy. You could easily bring weed in and most likley never get caught. Some guy stamps your passport, usually without even looking at you, and that's it. From what I have seen, there is no attempt what so ever at keeping people from bringing anything in to the country.

Coming into the U.S. on the other hand, is the worst as far as I've experienced. I've had U.S. customs search through all my bags simply because I told them I had brought back a few snacks from China. Even though I had it in my carry-on, willingly admitted to having it, and handed it over to them they still wanted to go through all my bags. They are serious pricks about it too. After ripping my luggage apart,and confiscating my snacks :( , they then yell at me for holding up the line while I was trying to put everything back in the suitcase. Like wtf else am I supposed to do. Seriously, U.S. customs agents get off on the fact that you are powerless against them and enjoy fucking with you. Don't bring anything into the U.S.

One other thing to consider when thinking about bringing anything in to another country is that what you are contemplating doing is called smuggling. Generally, penalties for smuggling are far greater than penalties for possession. Get caught with an 1/8th on the street in San Francisco and you'll get a warning, maybe a small fine if the cops in a bad mood. Get caught bringing an 1/8th through customs at the San Fran Airport and you'll do time.

ask your self. is it worth doing time if you get caught?

man im not going to bullshit you but its sooooo hard to get away with weed in an airport...specially with the security that has gotten greater with the whole terrorism shit

I flew from seattle to London last summer and didnt see one dog at the airport. I think that it is somewhat random, like they randomly choose a few days out of the month to have k-9's on patrol.

but dude, why risk going to jail when you could pick up some bud the day you get off the plane! Just go to a beach and ask around and I garrauntee you will find some bro.

Or Let me know when you are going, Ill fly down ahead of time, grow some, and give it to you when you get here. just let me know man!

I just went from the US to England, and then from Spain to the US, and no bad was opened either way out of our whole group of 39. I think this was prolly a somewhat freak accident, but we also saw no dogs goign either way or while we went from country to country in our tour of Europe.

On a side note, finding pot is easier then you would think. We found it all four of the times that we really wanted it. Just have to be willing to grow some balls and ask strangers.

Thanks for the quick replies. For those of you that have done it successfully, how'd you do it? And does anyone know or know where I can find out what penalties I'd face for "smuggling"?

I know it'd be easy to just buy weed in Australia, but I want to have a good long smoke session immediately after I get settled from the 25 hour flight.

Peace

i think you'd be alright if you do your plan with the crotch thing.
thats what i do too. i took some to mexico and back with me before by doing exactly what your doing exceptttttt i put lemon juice and vinigar in between layors of bags to throw off any smell (still vacume seal them). the peppers would be good too. i say no worries

where in Australia are you headin?

I'm going to Victoria. Until a few days ago I was under the impression that Australia was going to be reasonably warm, even though they're in the middle of their winter (since it's on the southern hemisphere), however the temperature isn't supposed to get above 55F so now I'm not looking forward to it as much. Fuck that, Australia's gonna be a trip.

I haven't searched for info on vacuum sealing yet, but I made a practice batch of cupcakes the other day and found that icing does a good job at covering up weed smell, so I suppose I should cook weed into something with icing so the airport security cant smell it easily. Either that or homemade cookies in a resealed chips ahoy bag (which, at first glance, would look more legit). For cookies, I was thinking about baking a clean batch and a dirty batch (with weed :P) and having the clean ones be in the front of the bag so they would be investigated first.

I'm looking forward to getting there and introducing myself to people by offering some sick widow straight from america. Have any of you guys been to or currently live in Australia?

Why not just send it to your destination through mail? :confused:

I'd feel more comfortable doing that but: a) I think it would get busted and b) I'm gonna need a good smoke after stepping off the plane

Have you ever mailed anything? I'm telling you man, I've done it many ways, even STUPID ways before I thought of a more intelligent way and never got caught. Plus, how would they ever know if it's your real address. I know for a fact that UPS doesn't scan anything and even if the local post office does, they aren't going to call the police for dogs for anything less than a 1/4. :thumbsup:

Just an FYI.... Dogs are specially trained for airports and they are trained in a way that if they alert, they will not incite panick in the crowd.

So instead of attacking your crotch, they will have a seat right next to you. Don't try to pet it though :D just run :dance: ....

If you really want to get it over there so bad, just balloon it.

oh.. The dogs would imediately alert to the snacks, so make sure you seal those up good. Once you get on the plane you can bust them open.. but you better make sure you cover the smell really well, cause people can be irritable on planes and they're more likely to point you out if they smell that shit.

hey if your white you should be set :)

LMAO :D :p :thumbsup:

Well I read up on this some more and saw what you guys wrote, so I've decided to just go without it. Bottom line is I really don't know wtf would happen if I was caught trying to enter another country with weed on me, and the unknown is a scary thing. Bringing a quarter to Australia really isn't worth risking fucking up my life when I could always find something there... I just need to stop being a weed snob and smoke that hay. The best idea I've seen though for simple transportation is to bag it up inside a slurpee, and just walk through everywhere with that. There's no way they'd xray a slurpee and you could totally just walk through the airport without the smell permeating the liquid and the plastic to get to the dogs. And baked treats definately can't work if there's a dog around... they'd run to that shit just cause dogs like food.

Sharpstoner: Thanks for the information, I feel confident that I'm making the right decision now. Hows the weed in Victoria? What kind of prices do you get over there? I'm pretty excited - leaving tomorrow and I know I'm gonna have a great five months!!

You're truly upsetting me, LOL :D


JUST MAIL IT!

ding ding

what do we have for him johnny???

SHOVE IT UP YOUR ASS...

Thanks for the additional info, no way am I gonna try and bring any over. I'll either buy there and let my stuff cure back home or have it mailed over. I'm pretty excited now... T minus 4 hours... must smoke all day...

sharpestoner: just checked out your grow log from your sig, that plant was gigantic... I wish I could do my widow outdoor, but it'll hafta remain hydro only, at least until next summer. So what cool stuff is there to do in Victoria? I'll be taking classes at Monash University (?) which is a huge school so I'll hopefully meet some chill people there. Do you know what the weed laws are there?

Peace

I say go for it, you'll never get caught... And when you make it through you'll have a great story to tell.

Do it! Come on, be an inspiration to us all! :dance:

just wait till you get home and get blitzed
it`ll be worth it

lol yeah if ur like noosaheads and dont mind things being shoved up your ass then go ahead, try to shove a quarter ounce up your ass haha. im just playing wit ya Noosaheads....

I dont go on vacation without the herb. I wear boxers usually, but when i'm flying, I put on a pair of "tighty whiteys" Hanes. The have a little pocket in em just below the pecker hole. Hell you could fit a half ounce in there, and it sits right under the jewels ;)

As far as the baked goods, I wouldnt even try that. It would be worth the 25 hours without to know I could twist one up as soon as I got to my destination ;)

When I lived in Adak the drug dogs were trained to pee on things as the sign they had something in them but they would also piss on pizzas people were bringing back from the mainland.

i actually was sorta wondering the same thing.. how to sneak drugs from other countries over here. i know some of you said mail it.. but how?! customs checks packages right?

basically what i want to do is go to amsterdam and bring bag like a 1/2 or a 1/4 of some of their dankyyyy nugs. how would i go about bringing back some nuggets from amsterdam back into the US of A?

So who else is with me on not discussing mailing techniques openly in the boards???

just shut the fuck up!

That's actually a very good idea. It'd be a good way to hide it in general, if you can smuggle it on and off a plane, you could smuggle it anywhere. I will use this newly learned knowledge, thanks for sharing. :thumbsup:

No problem man. I've used it on at least 6 flights, and two cruises out of the country. I'd rather have it on me, then in my bags that could possibly be sniffed by dogs. I've never been checked by dogs myself while traveling, so I feel safe doing it.

When my sister and her ex boyfriend left Amsterdam, he brought back with them a small amount, only enough for like a head. He just did it by breaking the weed up and hiding it everywhere in his clothing in the luggage. A little tiny tiny piece in pockets, socks. I personally wouldn't risk anything like that even.

Has anyone heard of masking the smell of weed and deterring the dogs by putting weed in a plastic sealed bag and then in peanut butter jar, encased by the peanutbutter all over it? I always wondered if that really worked.

Can a dog actually smell through a glass jar or any other airtight container? Is that not impossible?...

..sounds like someone needs to chill out and smoke a bowl.

It's not what's inside the air tight package that the dog will smell... It's the residual that will get you burned. Residual on the container, your hands, your clothes, on your luggage, the clothes you packed, your toiletries, a laptop, a book, your cell phone, your keys, your wallet... Granted, there might not be enough residue on all of these things to alert a dog, but it only takes one mistake to screw a vacation, and maybe a life.

My point is, when you take risks, you have to think of every variable, every weakness and exploit.. because I promise you that those who are out to get you have been doing just that, thinking about how to get you.

My apologies for the paranoid rant, I'm not one to take risks without knowing everything about the situation, and being in control.

Hmm, interesting, I would have figured that.

Alright, lets say I were to pack the marijuana(or any other drug) in a glass vial, seal up tight. Wash it in a washing machine, take a long shower, wash all my clothes, get on a plane tomorrow and encounter a drug sniffing dog in the airport. Would I have enough scent on me for the dog to finger me out?

I would doubt it. Dogs aren't superman. I wouldn't think it would be a big risk if you knew what you were doing. I wouldn't do it though, actually I might, depending on the penalty and how badly I want to smuggle it. It doesn't sound very hard in theory... But who knows.

Then again, people have gotten the stuff into maximum security prisons, think about that.

Yeah man.. There's always a way to do it. No security is impenetrable. If I were going to do this, I would probably spend a week researching, scoping, and planning, then preparing and executing.


It can definately be done, and I'm sure it's done on a semi regular basis. Remember that authorities DO use profiling. I dont' care how much people deny it. Profiling is natural. Don't look lke you'd be someone who would carry pot on a plane.

OK guys, I've made it to Australia safely and let me tell you, not bringing weed here is sure to be one of the biggest regrest of my LIFE! After two days in a plane and in airports I need to smoke like no ones business, but since it's winter in Australia, no one has arrived on campus yet... FUCKIN A!!! I'm at one of the biggest schools in the country BUT NO ONE'S HERE!! I think this is the longest I've gone without smoking in years... seriously, this I've broke records this summer... just two days ago at this time I was smoking a 7 gram "plaxton special" blunt with the homies... not anymore... I've almost smoked a pack of cigarettes today and I don't even smoke... FUCK!!!

(Airport) Trip report
OK, seriously though, very little security at JFK airport, no dogs, no pat downs, just walked through the metal detector => didn't have to go through security at LAX because of a quick transfer, but still saw no dogs => at the Victoria/Melbourne airport (for arrivals) there were DEFINATELY no security checks besides the questions at customs (they did kind of bug out because I didn't list my full name [aka mother's maiden name as second middle name] on the student visa, so I probably would have been sweating bullets if I had weed on me).

In short, I might as well had an oz in my pocket and I would have been more than fine. Plus some brownies on the plane would have made it a sweet 25 hour ride... at least they served free beers... As far as stereotyping went, they I only saw them take one woman away for searching at customs at the victoria/melbourne airport because she had "something that they needed her to show them" but it was more likely because she was very middle eastern looking and by herself.

Anyhow, if I taped it to my nuts I would have been fine, but I don't know what they would have said about me brining a tray of cookies... cause they would have seen that in the xray at least....

In a close 2nd to weed (at this point) I'm dissapointed by the calibur of women. I guess I just had false expectations, but I expected all the people here to be like cali surfers with that laid back attitude. Seriously though, I've seen no girls with looks that would make me walk up and try and talk to them randomly... thank god for the hot accent...

And as far as the peanut butter method goes, if they scan it in the xray, youre screwed...
