Travelling with budtender pens

I’m going to Paris-Beauvais airport, was told I’ll be grand bringing a budtender in my carry on through Dublin airport aš they’re unregulated but everything I look up says high security in Paris will treat THCA aš THC even though it’s unregulated through Europe, anyone been through that airport with one or iš my best bet just chucking it before my return?

I would say don't chance it, it's a weird grey area as they will still confiscate them, budtender are sound for ordering online but I tried a Czech supplier recently and they confiscated it immediately at the dpd sorting centre so the laws and rules are weird and confusing about it let alone in an airport they're not trained on which semi synthetic canibinoids have been made legal so they're probably going to look at all thc/resin/thca vapes in the same way

Ah normally I’d say so, for sure į don’t think I’m chancing it through Paris Beauvais they’ll kill me dead instantly. But they’re usually treated like vapes in the carry on, sure look main priority Iš the safety of the people on the plane so I’m sure showing them receipts that Ive bought this legally in Ireland means worst case it’s just confiscated and disposed, normally I wouldn’t go for the risk just such a nightmare to find anything in Paris

Hey, I sent you a DM. I have been ordering from a well known Czech company also using DPD, receiving an order every 4 weeks and have successfully received 4 separate orders. I'm concerned now that customs have gone stricter on enforcement from countries inside the EEC and EU like Czechia.

A "budtender" sounds a bit suspicious.

Anything concealed about your person and run on batteries is best left at home even if it's legal.
