The airline may have a problem with the cylinder. If they do allow it on, it will need to be empty and the valve open and in the hold with you luggage.

If you mean the ones with the little co2 cartridge let me know how you get on as i doubt if they will let you, but you could try hiding the cartridges in your case and plead ignorance if they find them.

The buddy type refillable Smbci you will have no problem with as you can fly with and empty cylinder.

Hi, I am an aircraft engineer, so just to let you know that the pressure in the cabin will be the same as in the baggage hold. You only have about 6mm of flooring to separate the compartments. They are not airtight. If you look on the flooring around the edges, you will usually see vents that run the whole length of the aircraft, and lead straight into the hold.....

Oh, and another useless fact for you.....When you board an aircraft, try and find Row 13....I bet you will have trouble!!!

Steve
