poephol Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 Hi again all, a couple more questions. 1. For those with a Stargate (I have the 25 inch with two hoses) , are there any suggestions for a nice quality, secure carry case which will be used for traveling abroad (mabye you can even address the subject of carry on vs. check in??) ....and on that same note... 2. Is there anything I should know about pitfalls of Hookah transport to other countries (specifically South Africa, where I am headed). My Hookah has never had anything naughty smoked in it either so no worries about that. As always, thanks in advance for your collective wealth of knowledge. Please feel free to discuss all your experiences abroad as well for others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poephol Posted January 8, 2006 Author Share Posted January 8, 2006 Well good morning folks. Heres hoping a bump to the top of the forum might get a few new readers and mabye even a reply? Has anyone traveled with their Hookah? Where to? Did you travel by air? Did you check in or carry on? What happened? My wife is from South Africa and we travel there next week. She grew up with "Hubbly-Bubblys" and cant wait to bring ours to share with the family. We just have no idea what to expect as far as transporting it and are also looking for any opinions on travel cases to make sure she arrives safe and sound. Peace!

[LB] Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 i carried on, and explained that it was a hookah, matter o fact my case was see through ( a pretty cheap plastic one) . i didnt seem to have any trouble as long as you let the staff know about i- or you can call it a hookaphone !

ahc87 Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 i wouldnt risk carrying it on... chances are you wont get it back if something goes wrong. my friend took his around europe and he had no trouble, but he kept it in his suite case. just wrap it in some bubble wrap or something like that to protect the base Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poephol Posted January 21, 2006 Author Share Posted January 21, 2006 Anybody else? I leave in less than a week for South Africa. I've been there before and know that there are no issues with my friends smoking there but I figured that this would be a great conversation sting for people to speak out about there travels and any, if there was any, pitfalls or triumphs of traveling with thier hookahs. I'm planning on packing the Stargate into a computer bag as it dis-assembles easy enough but I would love any other brilliant ideas if they are out there. heres hoping for some great insight. I'll let you guys know how it went..... G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
