Can you bring an e-cigarette through Cam Ranh Airport security and on domestic flights from Nha Trang?
Based on 2 discussions with 3 participants · Last activity: 13 days ago
TL;DR
Security screening is in place at Cam Ranh Airport for both domestic and international departures, so e-cigarettes can be detected during X-ray and checkpoint screening. Vietnam has become stricter about vaping products, so check the latest rules directly with your airline and Cam Ranh Airport (CXR) before flying.
What the community said
Cam Ranh departures use normal airport security: cabin bags go through X-ray screening and passengers pass through metal detectors. If you carry an e-cigarette, it can be noticed during screening.

For domestic flights from Nha Trang, including routes such as Hanoi or Da Lat via Cam Ranh, security screening is also mandatory. Arrival checks are usually lighter, but the main issue is departure screening at security.

Before leaving Vietnam through Cam Ranh, bags and cabin luggage are screened as well, so you should expect checks. Even if the device is switched off, it can still be detected on the X-ray scanner.

The safest practical step is to confirm the rules with your airline, such as Vietnam Airlines, VietJet Air, or Bamboo Airways, because policies for devices and batteries can differ.
