How do you Travel with Cigars ?

[@josephweeks820]

I am a new subscriber thanks to KZbin. I live in N.S., Canada having thee most Draconian smoking laws outside of a total ban. That plus our harsh winters makes for me a short smoking season. I have been enjoying cigars for 40 years plus. This video is a basic course for a new smoker. Now to watch your others. Cheers

Hello Joseph thank you very much. Enjoy the summer.

[@leprick2896]

God bless you for making these videos without getting paid!

[@prakhyat24]

Hi Laurnet, just wanted to say you are a class act and appreciate all the hard work you put in for all the videos. A big thank you my fellow BOTL!

[@habanonews]

Thank you very much!

[@SMOKOCIGAR]

Australia - forget about bringing anything - maybe 2 sticks. Using the bags to group loose sticks together is an excellent idea. Your content is well worth the subscription- thanks as always.

[@Petrossmokesstogies]

I brought about 30 Cubans when I traveled to Australia last year haha. I feel like coming in, isn’t an issue. Leaving would be?

[@habanonews]

thank you very much!

Very usefull and delighful cigar videos !

[@habanonews]

Thank you!

[@kevinsenior8155]

Thanks Laurent. All your hard work is appreciated. I was squirming when you jiggled around that half empty box of Cohibas. Ouch!

[@LukeEdwards-x8c]

Been watching your channel over the last few days. Love the content 😊

[@habanonews]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@David-my3uu]

Excellent - very helpful!

[@habanonews]

Glad it was helpful!

[@CigarAttache]

I always enjoy your content Laurent. You can bring 25 cigars into Mexico and you can bring up to 100 into the US(non Cuban of course :-) for the US). I'd also recommend avoiding the travel case with foam liners/holders. They tend to degrade quickly.

[@habanonews]

Thanks for the info!

[@thakori]

I just reuse the bags my dealer uses to ship the cigars. They come with litlle Boveda packs inside and are perfect for travelling. Works like a charm if you pack the bags tightly between your clothes.

[@habanonews]

Exactly! These can be used and reused!

[@Petarkruzevksi]

Thank you sir, going to Cuba soon, looking forward to this video

[@neilmcdonald3475]

I remember buying a few boxes of Superiores with box code MUR MAR 13 from Gestos a few years ago. They were great cigars, still got half a box left. ❤

[@neiltupas4463]

Great info, thanks!

[@NetMillionaire]

Brilliant tips ❤ thx for sharing 😊

[@Bernardd55]

Laurent, please do a collection tour of your different humidors please!

[@danielfaragau6460]

Hi Laurent. Thx for the sharing your thoughts and valuable information👌

[@habanonews]

My pleasure!

[@davidbradshaw6787]

Thank you for all the thoughts and information, really helpful for myself, a novice, only beginning with cigars.

[@habanonews]

Glad to help!

Sir, well done for your nice and help videos! I would like (if is possible) your opinion. Soon I will travel to Cuba, I’m wondering what is better (talking always about humidity) to use use hum. zip lockbags or simple ziplock with boveda of my preference? I check a humidity ziplock and keeps around 80% when I keep 65% in my humidor. Thank you

[@habanonews]

Hello it is not a big issue as trips are usually shorrer than 24h. The only bad thing is dryness so even if you have a bit too much humidity (80%) for 24h it won’t damage your cigars. If you can maintain 65 it is even better.

[@IamGio69]

Excellent episode. I was actually looking for big ziploc bags to buy. When you wrap the box with cling film, do you put a boveda inside as well? Thank you.

[@Petrossmokesstogies]

You can, i usually buy the smallest boveda and place it inside the box.

[@habanonews]

Yes I do!. I try not to put the Bobeda in direct contact with cigars not to overhumidify the wrappers. Some people do. It is an issue if you leave it for a long period. For just a few hours or a couple of days it is not an issue

[@IamGio69]

@@habanonews thank you, Laurent. I would now have to check my tupperdor’s as well as the boveda’s might be in direct contact with my cigars.

[@ai235pl]

Hi Laurent, is it possible to revive the bags you receive from cigar shops? I have a bunch but not sure if the humidification is optimal since purchasing. Love your content!

[@habanonews]

Sure if you leave them in a humidor they worlk again.

[@habanonews]

Sure you can. Leave the bag a few days in your humidor.

[@joaquinfernandez3314]

Dear Laurent, what do I do if I am traveling with many boxes of cigars and they don't fit in cary-on. Can I send in luggage?

[@habanonews]

Sure you can put them in your suitcase. Just make sure they are pack tight and the box cannot move in the suitcase.

[@johnathandax6132]

Thank you, Laurent. One subject with traveling I have always had is how do you travel with cigar lighters and more importantly fuel for the lighters. I am always miffed by the strict laws with butane. How do you solve this? As you know, it takes constant fuel when you are enjoying many cigars in a trip. Thank you.

[@habanonews]

You are totally right and you just gave me an idea for another video.! As an aviation professional I can tell you that Gas is banned inside the aircraft. Some airlines ban lighters / torches inside the haul as well. So what I do is: I empty the lighter and put them in my toiletry bag. And when I land I buy a gas bottle….

[@johnathandax6132]

@@habanonews Yes, I see. I find it difficult to actually find a place when traveling that would sell a premium butane for a good lighter. Have you had any trouble with this? Like say Cuba. Are there many places that sell premium butane?

[@habanonews]

No idea. I am not a gas specialist. Usually I don't have much problem.

[@FloppaFan400]

You can bring 50 cigars into the UK without paying duty

[@habanonews]

Exactly. Like most European countries!

[@mmerlano]

Any air tight systema or Tupperware plastic container with a boveda bag will do the job. And I’m not payed by them 😂

[@habanonews]

Totally right.
