Flying, and Vegas

[JohnPal716]

Hello folks...

I’m traveling to Las Vegas from Buffalo next Thursday for a hiking trip. I’m really excited- it’s my first vacation in well over ten years, and I’m flying solo, which is pretty awesome. A couple things:

1: has anyone had any trouble flying with kava? I bought some KWK micronized so that I can bring it with me. First, for the flight (I’m terribly afraid of flying) and then for the trip itself. I can’t wait to down a few shells in the Valley of Fire...

2: anyone know of any kava bars in/around Las Vegas? I have done a little research, but can’t find anything.

Thanks!
JP

1. No problem traveling with kava. TSA will probably look at, but will let you keep it! I was making kava in the airport with my alubottle on the way to tampa.

2. 9th Island Kava Lounge is in las vegas

man it's beautiful there with the desert in bloom. I was there once in April about 14 years ago when the hills were all green and it looked like Ireland, I swear. Bizarre.

I never had a problem with kava in my checked luggage. Just remember to keep it in the original packaging and put it in an extra zip lock or two. Last time I flew I ended up with kava powder all over my clothes after a bag busted open.

I’ve traveled all over the world with Kava on hundreds of flights and have never had a single issue with it

Those desert plants knew their time would come. Toicfaidh ár lá.

Wow.... thanks everyone!
I’m even more excited to go now.... hoping that I’ll be able to relax and enjoy the 4 hour Chicago to Vegas flight.....
Usually, I’m like “nobody get up to pee! It shakes the plane!!”

I just got through TSA security with no problem. I just shook some KWK Borogu into my apple juice and am already a hell of a lot less terror stricken than I’ve even been. And they just started boarding.
All I can think of is the red rocks and petroglyphs I’ll be surrounded by tomorrow,
Bula!

where I go, my aluball goes. I find vacations are the best time for kava as it encourages and reminds you to "just chill".
Also, kava bars around the country are very, very inconsistent and serve "sh*t kava" (or faux kava!) more often than not.
By bringing your own top qual kava, you guarantee your bliss.
I do still love to check out kava bars when out of town...sometimes you hit a gold mine and they have multiple different types, offer premium options, etc.
Peace!
