And as proud as we are of our beautiful range of stylish products, we appreciate that having to show them off to security personnel is less than ideal.<\/p>\n<p>After years of traveling with our products both for business and pleasure, we&#8217;ve learned how to breeze past check-in and on to our destination with no fuss. Check out some of our tips below.<\/p>\n<h2>Shut It Down and Lock It Up<\/h2>\n<p>While the pleasure toys of today tend to be rechargeable, we understand that many people still stand by their battery-operated buzzers. The thing about D-cell pleasure devices is that many don\u2019t feature a control lock function \u2013 so take the batteries out before packing it in your carry-on bag. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/types-of-sex-toys\/\">LELO sex toys<\/a>, however, are easily lockable, meaning that no errant button pressing will come between you and the boarding gate.<\/p>\n<h2>Bag It<\/h2>\n<p>In the event that your baggage does get searched, you don\u2019t want a customs officer handling your intimate item, so pack your toys in clear plastic bags \u2013 they can see what\u2019s inside and what\u2019s more, it\u2019s a hygienic storage option when you\u2019re on-the-go.<\/p>\n<h2>Keep It Small<\/h2>\n<p>When it comes to restrictions on items for air travel, the US Travel Security Administration is a good yardstick for which rules will apply for luggage items. The TSA states that \u201ctools\u201d with a length of 7 inches (about 17.5 cm) are suitable for carry-on luggage. This means that petite, discreet massagers such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/review-roundup-lelo-siri-2\/\">SIRI 2<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/review-roundup-mia-2\/\">MIA 2<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/nea-2-petite-clitoral-vibrator-review\/\">NEA 2<\/a> \u00a0are good to go, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/review-roundup-lelo-elise-2\/\">ELISE 2<\/a>\u00a0 will have to wait for your next road trip. And now there are even vacation-ready massagers, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/sona-2-travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SONA 2 Travel<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-40784 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/sona-2-travel.jpg\" alt=\"sona 2 travel sex toy\" width=\"850\" height=\"425\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/sona-2-travel.jpg 850w, https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/sona-2-travel-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/sona-2-travel-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/sona-2-travel-770x385.jpg 770w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Own Up<\/h2>\n<p>When an Airport security agent asks you what&#8217;s in your bag or has you explain an item on the x-ray display; tell it to them straight. This will save you being pulled aside for further questioning and perhaps also avoid them having to rummage through your bag. Embarrassment is really a non-factor here because these people handle thousands of articles every day \u2013 your sex toy won&#8217;t even qualify for break room gossip.<\/p>\n<h2>Know Before You Go<\/h2>\n<p>Believe it or not, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/forbidden-territorywhere-cant-take-sex-toys\/\">sex toys aren&#8217;t accepted in every place on the globe<\/a>. Some countries and regions have bans on your little buzzing buddy, like India, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia &#8211; even some US States. If you&#8217;re so much as simply not sure if your destination allows sex toys, being absolutely sure is just a Google search away, and can save you a whole lot of trouble.<\/p>\n<p>Traveling with your toys can be fuss-free, and when you reach your final destination, they can only enhance the loosening of inhibitions that comes with being in a new place, whether you\u2019re traveling solo <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/sexiest-summer-getaways\/\">or with a partner<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/lelo-tips-sex-plane\/\">Tips for Getting Away With Having Sex on a Plane<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you\u2019re setting off for sexy summer travels, you\u2019re perhaps thinking of taking some of your trusty pleasure items with you.
