Can you fly with a vape, power bank, and laptop from Nha Trang, and do they have to go in carry-on luggage?
Based on 2 discussions with 3 participants · Last activity: 10 days ago
TL;DR
Vapes/GLO devices and power banks are usually allowed only in carry-on, not checked baggage, because of lithium battery rules. A laptop is also best carried in the cabin, and power banks are typically fine up to 100 Wh without special airline approval.

The same rule usually applies to a vape or GLO device: battery-powered devices are normally carried in the cabin, not in checked luggage. You also cannot use or charge them on board.

A laptop can sometimes be checked, but in practice most travelers flying via Nha Trang keep it in carry-on to reduce the risk of damage, theft, and battery-related issues.

If your power bank is labeled in Wh, the usual benchmark is this: up to 100 Wh is typically allowed without special approval; 100–160 Wh may require airline permission.

Before flying from Nha Trang, check your specific airline’s policy, because limits on the number of power banks, spare batteries, and e-cigarettes can vary even on the same route.

At security, it helps to keep your laptop and power bank easy to reach near the top of your bag, as staff often ask to inspect them separately.
