Tips for Traveling with Toys

LOS ANGELES—While owning pleasure items like vibrators, dildos and more aren’t the taboo they once were, packing those items for a weekend getaway or extended vacation might take a little extra thought and care.

Holidays-Reviews.com, a travel-based website, recently published an article offering tips on how to pack those precious toys to avoid any hassle at the airport.

Remove the batteries: Even if your vibe or other powered item might not be that easy to turn on, as luggage shifts it could happen. How much fun will be it having to explain to security officials that the buzzing is not an incendiary device, but rather your “little friend”?

Use plastic bags: Pack your items in your luggage, but in their own sealable plastic bags or containers. That way, if your luggage is searched, you don’t have to worry about making sure you packed the toy cleaner to.

Check your vibe: Pack any pleasure items in your checked luggage. It could save you from an embarrassing situation in the security line.

Know the law: Not only are there restrictions on sexual products in some countries (Thailand has a ban on “obscene items”), but there are some rules in a couple of American states, too. When in doubt, ask a good First Amendment attorney.
