Popular Post CartagenaWarlock Posted January 28 Popular Post Share Posted January 28 I'm planning to go to Koh Samui by flight in February and intend to take ten joints in a cigarette pack. I have a hunch that it must be illegal in flight under some regulations, but how severely are they enforced, and what is the maximum fine I could expect for that? I know I can buy them in Koh Samui, but I need to have some supplies with me for the strains I like before I explore Samui and find some to my liking. By the way, are there any nice ganja cafes in Samui? 4 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way, are there any nice ganja cafes in Samui? As discussed on this forum many times it's not illegal and many people have done it. If the smell coming out of your bag though is strong then that may cause some problems. If you can vacuum bag it first to get rid of the smell then that could be best. The other alternative is to mail it to yourself by Thai EMS postal mail before you leave for Samui and then it should be at your hotel waiting for you when you arrive. 4 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it legal to mail weed? You are usually only asked to declare the contents of a package when you are shipping something internationally to somewhere outside of the country. This is for Customs declaration purposes. I've sent things EMS many times domestically and have never been asked what's inside the parcel. Many licensed Thai cannabis sellers also ship their weed through the Thai postal service to their customers in Thailand on a daily basis. And the post office knows what their business is and what they are shipping, so mailing it cant be something illegal. Perhaps the cannabis vendor you bought from might be willing to send it for you through the Thai postal service if you offer them a bit of money. Then you don't have to deal with it yourself.

Dewey Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 (edited) Took weed many time in local flight (last time was in a Samui flight in November), strong smell coming out of my bag every time I remove my laptop for security, no problem so far. If you are uncomfortable bringing your weed with you there is plenty of weed seller in Samui (I did not test them since I bring my own).

If you are uncomfortable bringing your weed with you there is plenty of weed seller in Samui (I did not test them since I bring my own). Vacuum bag it first and you will have zero smell. You can get a cheap vacuum sealing machine on Lazada for 300-500 Baht. Vacuum bags are around 1.5 to 2 Baht each on Lazada (depending on size) for the higher quality 220 mil thick bags. Vacuum bagging your cannabis will also allow you to keep it fresh for a much longer time than in ziplock bags, grove bags, or mason jars. 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newbee2022 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Yeah, smoke some as long you can on a flight. Maybe the pilot will change the destination and land again immediately. Yesterday he did it because of a farting tart. Good luck. 😂🥳😵💫😳 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So leave your weed at home. Just bring your rolling papers, your grinder, your favorite rolling tray and stash canister and just a few suitcases of cash and you should be able to stay high during your trip. 😜👌🏼 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felton Jarvis Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Why chance it??? They can't even make up their minds if it's legal or not. It wouldn't surprise me if they made an example out of someone like you. Leave the dope at home and buy it locally. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swm59nj Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 It’s amazing how so many people complain about how expensive things are in Thailand. How they are getting ripped off by even a few baht. And can’t even afford certain things. But they have enough money to buy weed. 5 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some advice on here is just plain wrong .I have been on over 50 domestic flights ,my carry on has been searched nearly everytime ,due to the fact of having my daughters ice packed medicine inside !!! Numerous funny interactions with customs over my multiple baggies of ganja ,all they want is proof from the hospital that the meds need keeping cold and why I have the meds ,they did not care at all about ganja !!!!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never heard about anybody complaining about things getting expensive. Anyway, my weed budget is in line with that of most drinkers. I don't drink at all and don't go to bars except in ganja cafes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HugoFastor Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 10 hours ago, n00dle said: yes On 1/28/2024 at 11:23 PM, CartagenaWarlock said: Is it legal to mail weed? —- Technically, sending weed via postal mail is a form of distribution. Yes, presumably, it’s legal for licensed growers and licensed sellers in Thailand to post weed through the postal mail. But there are also some additional legal hurdles that apply to selling weed online. Some online sellers adhere to them, but it seems many don’t. Thus, I’m not certain if an unlicensed individual is allowed to legally send weed through the postal mail as it could be viewed as distribution and/or selling weed online. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that's your paranoid view .Both of Bangkok's airports smoking areas absolutely stink of weed and as I stated before customs do not care one bit about weed on domestic flights .... 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Wuvu2 Posted February 3 Popular Post Share Posted February 3 You'll be staying Koh Samui at least overnight no? Ten joints would be packing way too light for me. You're allowed 7kg in your carry-on baggage alone 😆 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
