- Vape And Transport

A complete article is dedicated to air travel, you can find it here : E-liquids and electronic cigarettes on planes. As for other means of transport, in most countries it's forbidden to vape on public transport (buses, trains...) and in railway stations, so wait for your outdoor breaks to take advantage of them. If you decide to take a cruise, the regulations are different. Of course, vaping is not free, but there are dedicated areas for smokers and vapers. What's more, even if your destination doesn't allow e-cigarettes, you'll still be able to vape on board.


- Vape and Beach

Have you booked 15 days by the sea?

There are a few things you need to know. In countries where vaping is permitted, such as France, you may find yourself faced with a "smoke-free beach" policy. Although many beaches don't apply it, here are 5 French beaches where vaping is strictly forbidden: Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, La Ciotat, Cagnes-sur-Mer, Toulon and Sanary-sur-Mer. Note that ecig and your e-liquids don't like heat or sunlight, so it's essential to keep them in the shade. And don't leave them in the car while you're tanning in the sun, or on your beach towel. Likewise, beware of sand and water, which can damage your equipment. A number of water-resistant devices are available.
