robd Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Hello friends,I have been enjoying my hookah for about 8 months now. I am a student in the United Staes, but I will soon be moving to the UK. I can't imagine going without my hookah. My hookah has only been used for tobacco, so no worries there, but I am anticipating some questions going through customs. Have any of you had any experience with this, and was it a problem?- Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c4r80n Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 none. just check your baggage with the hookah, coal, & tobacco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calcartman Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 I thought quicklight coals weren't allowed?(checked or otherwise) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeding_Heart1 Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 IF they dont see them... Maybe you should put them in a little hidden compartment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazieshef Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I don't know if I would want to check my hookah in... I would just fear that it would get broken in transit. That is my baby, and I would cry for days on end. Has anyone ever carried it on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skimo Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 lol no but fuck it, why wouldnt they let you carry your hookah on? say its religous and you dont go anywhere without it haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IzA-Hookah Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 My two brothers and I brought back a total of 3 hookahs in our luggage from Jordan in 2004. We got those slips that said we were searched in every bag (we connected through Amsterdam so no wonder!) We had every kind of accsessory you can buy. We had quick-light coals in the luggage and it all went through fine. I carried my glass base with me to avoid breakage. I made the mistake of not bringing back a bag of the coals they sell there (you get 2 pounds for around $1.50 US !!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGuy Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 robd: bring over a lot of shsha wiht you. it's really really stupidly expensive here in the UK so it saves you getting some shipped over from US later on. Where about in the UK you going to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvansLight Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 if need be, could just ship your hookah to the uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ioannisds Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 I literally got a lighter taken away from me on the way back from Canada because they said I could possibly use it to "burn a hole through the hull of the plane". Yeah, right after I knock down the cockpit door with my man parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zombiedepot Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 The airports these days are insane, but I'd think as long as you bring some shisha with it, you'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
