traveling with votives

Hello Guys:

Has anyone had any problems going thru TSA at the airport with their votive candles... Im concerned because the are glass? could that be considered a weapon...

I'm putting them into a plastic tote that I'm going to check.... hi-yah!!!

You should not have a problem, just be prepared for them to search the box/bag/

Ugh, everything is considered a weapon these days... soon we won't be able to bring books on board because we could papercut someone to death!

Are you nervous about checking them?

you can bring glass on the plane - not a problem.

good to know Ann. I was wondering the same thing. I wanted to carry them on, but then worried about the whole weapon thing too. I even sent an email to TSA with this same question. They basically said that it is up to the TSA worker at the airport....lot of help that answer was!

i have never ever heard of or seen anyone have a problem with glass - i mean, you can buy it all over the airport once you're past security. only plastic knives though! lol i find it all so silly, if you can't tell!

yea im definitly afraid to check them.. I was going to have someonelse carry them on for me as there carry on hopefully i will get lucky!

I bought several packs from Bed Bath and Beyond, wrapped the packs in bubble wrap and put in checked luggage. I did not have ANY problems with TSA. Since they were protected by bubble wrap, the original packaging from BB&B, and some clothing, they were fine.
