- Whether you are bringing cigars with you on holiday or bringing back cigars home that you purchased it is important to understand how to travel with cigars as they are extremely sensitive and delicate items. The wrappers get damaged easily and the lack of humidity is the cigar's worst enemy. In this video I am explaining how to travel with cigars.
As usual if you have any question don't hesitate.

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!
Thank you very much!
God bless you for making these videos without getting paid!
I am a new subscriber thanks to CZcams. 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.
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.
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?
thank you very much!
Afternoon Laurent, really enjoy the videos, always a pleasure watching them.
thank you very it is very much appreciated!
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.
Thanks for the info!
Very usefull and delighful cigar videos !
Thank you!
Thanks Laurent. All your hard work is appreciated. I was squirming when you jiggled around that half empty box of Cohibas. Ouch!
Hi Laurent. Thx for the sharing your thoughts and valuable information👌
My pleasure!
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.
Exactly! These can be used and reused!
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. ❤
Laurent, please do a collection tour of your different humidors please!
Been watching your channel over the last few days. Love the content 😊
Awesome! Thank you!
Excellent - very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for all the thoughts and information, really helpful for myself, a novice, only beginning with cigars.
Glad to help!
Thank you sir, going to Cuba soon, looking forward to this video
Excellent video, good information
Glad it was helpful!
Brilliant tips ❤ thx for sharing 😊
Great info, thanks!
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.
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….
@@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?
No idea. I am not a gas specialist. Usually I don't have much problem.
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!
Sure if you leave them in a humidor they worlk again.
Sure you can. Leave the bag a few days in your humidor.
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.
You can, i usually buy the smallest boveda and place it inside the box.
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
@@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.
You can bring 50 cigars into the UK without paying duty
Exactly. Like most European countries!
Any air tight systema or Tupperware plastic container with a boveda bag will do the job. And I’m not payed by them 😂
Totally right.
