Posted: 20 Apr 2009, 18:44Posted: 20 Apr 2009, 19:05Reading the blurb, I would suggest that the answer would be 'No'. While it may not be a tobacco product as such, I can see the crew taking the view that it looks like a cigarette, acts like a cigarette. I wouln't like to be the one to explain to a fully loaded 747 that the passenger in seat XXX will be using an electronic cigarette.

He has had a few comments, but (so far) no ban.

Probably because of the same reason I give half my customers....The owner says so.

Posted: 15 May 2009, 14:03It appears to suggest that it generates 'smoke' in the form of water vapour. That alone I would think would be enough to invoke extreme reactions whether or not it's dangerous.
I remember using a GPS once on board an aircraft when radio receivers were expressly allowed by the airline in question. I was told to switch it off (the FA thought it was a cellphone), although I explained it wasn't. It doesn't matter, if a crew member tells you to do something, you comply whether you agree or not. If you have a complaint, you deal with it on the ground.
