Traveling with Entheogens

[avedadaise]

Flying with two transfers. Looking to carry on Vilca and P. Harmala, they are clearly labeled and do not have the vendors name on them. I know you can't bring flora and fauna from other countries on planes, does that only apply to international flights?

Have only flown a few times, so anyone with experience I'd love to hear your input. Also concerned about my loose herbs/tea which is unlabeled.

I think this is completely dependant on the destination of the said flight. What is the legal situation of these plants there ?

Are you taking live plants, seeds, extracts ?

If you are thinking of doing this in the USA you are freaking crazy..the risk is not worth it man.

New Zealand...definitely no plant matter or food
$200 fine for having an apple...

with how many airports you're going thru, I'd say chances are low that you'll get it through.

First an experience:
Back in oh 2007ish I traveled from the western US to the eastern US to 3 different countries in northern Europe and back, all by airplane. On this journey I brought along a big gallon sized ziplock freezer bag filled with mate'. My extra batteries and my water bottle got thoroughly checked everywhere I went, meanwhile no one batted an eyelash at the big bag of green stuff in the hippie kids backpack. :lol: In one airport in Europe (IIRC it was Amsterdam) someone pulled it out and asked "tea?" I said yes, he said okay and put it back and that was the only hassle I got traveling internationally with a big bag of mate'.

I also worked in my local airport for a while and would occasionally bring bags of herbs for tea in with my lunch, again no one batted and eye and I never had any issues.

This is not say you won't have any problems, I personally never have, but my experience =/= your experience. The tea and rue are both totally fine even if they do decide to stop you and check out what you have in those bags. The other is kind a grey area item and it's treading kind of close to rule breaking to discuss it, suffice it to say; you may want to consider that, while unlikely, if someone really wanted to push it, the possibility of finding yourself in very deep water with that one does exist.

I just wanted to share my experience and perspective on the matter. Best of luck and safe traveling.

Since this is bordering on trafficking I will close this thread. Remember that anything that even smells like buying/selling/sourcing/trafficking/etc. will be handled here as such.

No discussion on selling, buying, sourcing, pricing, trading or smuggling of drugs
