Natural Ways CBD CBD gummies stacked in a small pile

Yes, you can fly with CBN gummies as long as they’re derived from hemp and contain less than 0.3% THC. Hemp is a variant of the cannabis sativa plant containing less than 0.3% THC that’s federally legal in the US. This means you can fly domestically with hemp-derived CBN gummies. 

In this article, we’re going to explain how you can fly with CBN gummies and answer questions related to taking CBN gummies on airplanes. Let’s get into it.

Marijuana-Derived CBN Gummies vs. Hemp-Derived CBN Gummies

You’ll only want to fly with CBN gummies if they’re federally legal, because if you’re flying between states, federal law takes precedence over individual state laws. 

The difference between CBN gummies that are federally legal versus those that aren’t is the variant of the cannabis sativa plant they’re made from. 

Hemp is cannabis that contains less than 0.3% THC by dry weight, while marijuana is cannabis containing more than 0.3% THC by dry weight. 

The 2018 Farm Bill made hemp legal on the federal level, whereas marijuana is still considered a Schedule 1 drug (although it’s been legalized in certain states). 

To be considered a hemp product, a product like CBN gummies has to meet two requirements:

  1. It’s made from hemp (cannabis sativa containing less than 0.3% THC)
  2. The final product contains less than 0.3% THC by weight

As long as your CBN gummies fit these requirements (most products available for sale online do), they are federally legal and thus safe to take on a plane.

What Does the TSA Say About Flying With CBN Gummies?

The policy of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) around cannabis and hemp on planes adheres to federal law. Per their website:

“Marijuana and certain cannabis infused products, including some Cannabidiol (CBD) oil, remain illegal under federal law except for products that contain no more than 0.3 percent THC on a dry weight basis or that are approved by FDA. TSA officers are required to report any suspected violations of law to local, state or federal authorities.”

This means that you will be able to bring CBN gummies on a plane as long as they are made from hemp and contain less than 0.3% THC. 

Conversely, this also means TSA may inform airport police if they find marijuana-derived CBN gummies in your luggage. 

TSA does not search your bags for cannabis, but that if they find it, they have to report it:

“TSA’s screening procedures are focused on security and are designed to detect potential threats to aviation and passengers. Accordingly, TSA security officers do not search for marijuana or other illegal drugs, but if any illegal substance is discovered during security screening, TSA will refer the matter to a law enforcement officer.”

This means that you can safely bring CBN gummies through airport security. As long as they’re federally legal (containing less than 0.3% THC), TSA should not give you any problems. 

Tips for Flying With CBN Gummies

Even if your CBN gummies are legal, if you plan to fly with them, keep these tips in mind for the best experience:

1. Have a printout of the lab report

Reputable brands have their products lab tested to verify their legality, potency, and safety. 

Before you leave for the airport, we recommend printing off the lab report (also called a certificate of analysis or COA) for your CBN gummies. 

Having a lab report on hand will allow you to prove your gummies are a hemp product, rather than a marijuana product. 

2. Keep your gummies in their original, sealed packaging

Keeping your CBN gummies in their original packaging will help TSA understand what your product is and that it’s legal. 

Leaving the seal on your package unbroken will reassure TSA that you haven’t swapped products and containers to try and board the plane with an illicit substance (this means you’ll want to buy a new package of CBN gummies if you’re going to fly with them, instead of taking one you’ve already opened). 

3. Store your gummies in your carry-on

You’ll want to store your CBN gummies in your carry-on baggage, rather than your checked baggage. 

This will ensure that you’re present to explain to TSA officers what your gummies are if they find and question them. 

4. Be transparent with security

If TSA or other airport security has questions about what your CBN gummies are or what they contain, be fully transparent with them, even if your product also contains THC (in legal amounts). 

Calmly explaining to officers what your gummies are, why they’re legal, and why you have them gives you a much greater chance of boarding without a problem than trying to dodge questions about your product.

Can You Fly Internationally with CBN Gummies?

Generally speaking, we do not recommend you fly internationally with hemp-derived CBN gummies, even if doing so is legal and safe in the US. 

This is for two main reasons:

  1. Different countries have different definitions of what is and isn’t legal. For instance, the United Kingdom requires that products contain less than 0.2% THC to be considered hemp. This means that a product derived from hemp with 0.29% THC that’s legal in the US would be considered illegal cannabis in the UK. 
  2. Penalties for possession of cannabis vary widely between countries. In the US, a misunderstanding may simply end in an officer confiscating your product. In countries that are stricter on cannabis possession, a misunderstanding could land you in jail or prison.

If you are going to be flying internationally with CBN gummies, be sure to check the local and national laws of every country that you’ll be visiting (even if you’ll only be in their airport for a few hours). 

This will allow you to figure out which CBN gummies to buy (if you can bring any) and how you should package them so security will clear you.

Conclusion: Can You Bring CBN Gummies On An Airplane?

If you’re flying domestically within the US, you can take CBN gummies on a plane as long as they’re hemp-derived and contain less than 0.3% THC. 

To ensure a seamless experience, keep your gummies in their original packaging and remain calm if you’re questioned by the TSA.
