Recreational sales are in full swing in the Golden State, and earlier this week Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) announced it will now allow passengers to travel through the airport with up to one-ounce of marijuana.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Yeah \u2014 you heard that right: You can fly out of Los Angeles and take your beloved sour diesel or blueberry haze with you.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The new <\/span>LAX marijuana policy<\/span> states: <\/span><\/p>\n While federal law prohibits the possession of marijuana (inclusive of federal airspace,)\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n California\u2019s passage of proposition 64, effective January 1, 2018, allows for individuals 21 years of age or older to possess up to 28.5 grams of marijuana and 8 grams of concentrated marijuana for personal consumption.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n In accordance with Proposition 64, the Los Angeles Airport Police Department will allow passengers to travel through LAX with up to 28.5 grams of marijuana and 8 grams of concentrated marijuana.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n However, passengers should be aware that marijuana laws vary state by state and they are encouraged to check the laws of the states in which they plan to travel.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n If you\u2019re traveling in California and flying back home out of LAX and want to take your cannabis goods with, go right ahead.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n As long as passengers aren\u2019t packing over the legal limit into their checked luggage or carry-on, it\u2019s now 100% permitted to fly out of LAX with. <\/span><\/p>\n Does TSA just turn an eye to any weed they might find at LAX now? Not exactly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If they see a bag of weed that looks like it might be more than the permissible ounce of flower or 8 grams of concentrate, you can still very well be taken out of line in security while the cops are called to weigh your stash.<\/span><\/p>\n According to TSA spokeswoman Lorie Dankers, \u201cTSA\u2019s focus is on terrorism and security threats to the aircraft and its passengers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Whether or not the passenger is allowed to travel with marijuana is up to law enforcement\u2019s discretion.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n Seeing that it\u2019s now legal to fly out of LAX with up to one-ounce of cannabis flower or 8 grams of cannabis concentrates, law enforcement can\u2019t do much if you stick to the legal limit. <\/span><\/p>\n Whether or not you\u2019re flying into a recreationally-friendly state is another story. Rolling into Denver from LA?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Cool. Landing in Dallas?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Maybe not so cool.
