Flying x-country, ok to put in my checked baggage???

**darkspeedy** · 05-30-2010, 11:40 AM

Hey, towards the end of my cycle, I'm flying cross country (CA to MA), and will be there 2 weeks, is it ok to put a couple darts and my test in a my checked baggage? Little nervous about this. It'll be at the point in my cycle, done with Deca , but still need a couple weeks on Test, I'm sure any PCT stuff is fine to bring...

I would never do that.

Checked baggage only gets checked for metals.

But, idk..if for some reason your bag gets checked. You're pretty screwed.

They search bags. It may be random, but every time I fly, I get a note saying my bag was searched. Very stupid IMO to carry anything illegal on a plane in these times.

**darkspeedy** · 05-30-2010, 12:46 PM

Yep, that's why I asked... Figure I can maybe mail some test ahead of time and have it for when I'm there. That should be ok yeah?

**darkspeedy** · 05-30-2010, 12:47 PM

I mean, some of you must have had to travel during cycle, what'd you do?

**Bossman** · 05-30-2010, 12:55 PM

Plan ahead. If you have a short trip, take what you can before you leave. Load a little extra test, etc. A few days off won't generally be too negative. If you're going on an extended trip, you shouldn't have started a cycle.

**NickyReps717** · 05-30-2010, 01:20 PM

Mail it to where your going.

**getfit28** · 05-30-2010, 01:25 PM

Yes, I'm always going on business trips and I alwasy just mail to where I'm going

I fly all the time for business (20+ times per year) and I have NEVER had my bags searched on a domestic flight that were checked. I use zip ties and locks on my zippers so I would know if they were opened. That being said....I still would not risk it. Not worth it.

That's wild, I only fly a couple of times a year and every time my stuff is searched. Last trip was to Vegas this past winter and searched again....

No religious headwear LOL, maybe it's just the way I look? They see me when I check in my luggage, but that's it. It happens so often, I thought it was the same for everyone.

**ThatGuyYeahHim** · 05-30-2010, 03:54 PM

Heh.. I just checked your stats cgb6810.. and no offense but Damn youre a big boy.
Italian background by any chance? EIther way you probably look like some sort of hitman or standover guy :P~

Just jokes. You sure have some dedication though. Good work man.

**ThatGuyYeahHim** · 05-30-2010, 03:55 PM

actually, not sure why I said no offense. On this site.. the bigger you are, the better (provided its not fat). Just got up...

**ScotchGuard** · 05-30-2010, 04:11 PM

I fly internationally quite a bit. My bags got broken into twice. Those bums. I never take gear internationally. The customs agents, according to US law, pretty much have absolute control at the border. They can make your life very very rough.

**dec11** · 05-30-2010, 05:32 PM

dont knw how relevant it is to you but two weeks ago i took test p amps in my checked in luggage, from ireland to portugal with no probs

**asto_86** · 05-30-2010, 05:58 PM

I say put it in a medical kit in your checked luggage.. if searched theyd prob think it was insulin ..

**asto_86** · 05-30-2010, 06:01 PM

like packed in this...

This is flat out wrong. Checked bags get checked primarily for explosives and incindiaries. I don't know where you're coming up with the metals thing.

Modern X-ray scanning technology is truly amazing. If you ever get a chance to peek at the screen, do it. They can see absolutely everything, and they can look at different depths and filter for differing electron densities, (bones show up via the photoelectric effect, not because they are hard, but because they contain copious amounts of calcium & phosphorous, which have a high number of electrons per atom). The information is processed and rendered in false-color 3D. Its nothing like the popluar image of X-rays (which represents state-of-the art for the abt the 1920's)

Anyway, the point is, they are able to see essentially everything. Metal or not.

**sean_holland** · 05-31-2010, 10:32 AM

Anyone that ever worked in the screener industry have any info on the process? I've worked in a prison (canada) for many years and they only check for metals when screening people to enter the facility. Not sure about airports or the USA.

**carbo** · 05-31-2010, 02:12 PM

I fly for business a lot and used to keep a reasonable dose in my luggage.

Don't think I ever got searched, but in case of any questions I'd say it's perscription.

**wanabeMASSIVE!** · 05-31-2010, 04:20 PM

u could always wrapit up and plug it...

nvm.

**bber99** · 05-31-2010, 09:34 PM

I'm a type 1 diabetic, so it would probably be pretty easy to just load a couple syringes and put them with my insulin supplies. I take a prescription for my diabetes stuff and I doubt there going to search it and say "Hmmmm, this looks like testosterone not insulin!"
