Default To ship or not to ship

Ok so some of you know I am attending the EYH herf in November. Now I have my plane ticket and I'm packing light with only a carry on bag (I can take one carry-on plus a briefcase or the like). Should I ship my cigars before my arrival or just take them on the plane with me and save my carry on bag for my clothes? I already plan on shipping my tent so I have a place to crash.

I'd carry them on with you. I have in the past and haven't had any problems.

I'm just thinking with a backpack will I have enough room with the essentials (clothes, toothbrush, deodorant, ect) for cigars. I suppose my 30 count could be my "briefcase".

I think a 30 count makes a beautiful briefcase. Just put it on you lap and call it your laptop. You could also carry on a bigger bag that will hold everything.

Default Re: To ship or not to ship

When I go "home" on vacation, I ship to myself on occasion. I carry my smokes on occasion. I place orders to be delivered "home" on occasion. So I would say it depends on what you feel most comfortable doing.

Hey, it's a herf ain't it? Maybe you should do all three!

Get used to storing things in the butt in case you get searched.

Carry them on man. I carried mine and debanded them. What a wasted effort. They didnt even open either travel humi
