Taking flowers on a flight?

twist3d0n3 · 2 Aug 2012 at 16:10

Greetings GD,

I'm off to Holland at the weekend to see my lady friend, and I'm thinking of taking a rose with me for her... Do you think I'll be able to do this?

Smuggle it up your bum.

It won't smell of roses then

Only if someone on the plane isn't allergic to flowers (see my peanuts on plane thread

).

P.S. I'm presuming these are legal flowers and not other types of 'plant'

Holland is where a lot of flowers come from mate, may as well buy it from over there

It's a gamble I'm willing to take

e: Why would i take weed TO Holland?!

I'm meeting her at the airport, so waiting until we've travelling will look a bit rubbish

No point it will only get crushed in the hug.......

twist3d0n3 · 2 Aug 2012 at 16:16

I'd keep it in the stringy netty bit of my bag until after that bit

Given the rules will be the same for outbound and inbound I was thinking you were asking it a roundabout way as a smokescreen

I'd have hoped not to have time to drop the bag

is peanuts on a plane the snakes on a plane sequel?

why not buy one in NL anyway OP. surely better there... or go for tulips, she wont be sick of seeing them yet

I bought an aloe vera plant back from India, I'd presume it's fine

Just stick it in your backpack or w/e, a single rose can't be that much of a problem

I doubt anything I say now will convince you otherwise, but she's no hooker

As I said earlier, it'd look lame turning up with nothing then one miraculously appearing once I'd past a florist

I can't really put in *in* the backpack as it'll get crushed... And even then I'd need it get it past the scanners IF there's going to be a problem

Yes, it is allowed.

twist3d0n3 · 2 Aug 2012 at 16:40
