wpw36 Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 i'd imagine it would follow the rules of liquids none over a certain amount in carry on just put it in tupperware and then pack it in checked luggage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilikemyusername Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 pack it in your suitcase and dont say anything, hope for the best.the ammount you have to pay in taxed may outweigh the cost of the shisha, you could just buy more in europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuburbanSmoker Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 i agree...may just be easier to buy once you get to europe. taxes are a bitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snoopy1966 Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 I flew many times with a carry on size suitcase full of shisha and vases. Put all your metal stuff in your suitcase that gets checked. You can put natural coals in there too. I brought my coil burner, cookie sheet, coal carrier, stems, board to put the Hookah on, coals the whole nine yards! Wrap the vases in bubble wrap. I keep my shisha in glad containers also. I had some unopened shisha also in case there were questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dom209 Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 i took almost a killo of shisha and my hookah on a plane from california to florida and there was no problem... the only problem i could see is if you have to go threw customs... hope it works out for you cuz you gotta smoke on vacation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Europe. I know you can take 250 grams of tobacco (the law doesn't mention hookah tobacco specifically) duty free into the Netherlands at most, but people have brought me more than that on several occasions without paying extra. If you want to buy from here, expect almost only Nakhla at between 8 and 12 euros for 200 or 250 gram boxes. Edited July 10, 2008 by Majid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thugacation Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 I know that 3kg of sheesha tobacco can be brought into the UK per passenger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shisha fan Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 like majid said, you probably won`t get taxed if you take some tobacco. i doubt the dutch customs even know what it is. and you won`t find much else than nakhla and habibi shisha over here. there is a small store in the leidsestraat in amsterdam that has a meduse brute in the window display (for 800 euros), they sell some hookahs and tobacco but it`s not cheap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickReppinThe909 Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 <500 grams seems to be the magic number for alot of countries to avoid taxes/duties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canon Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 i took a suitcase of shisha, quicklights and a coil burner on an aircraft with little/no problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breldar Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 I recently came back form egypt for a lil R&R and brought back a shisha and 13boxes of nakhla with absolutely no issues at all, all the boxes were 250g which is 3.25kg i went through customs fine however it was shared between myself and my gf's suitcase so was split up, but you cannot carry any shishas in the hand luggage as its been used in the past as a weapon.
