If Regs are off and the tank is open then it wouldnt be a problem with any airline. It has been like this for a while

....but they let you bring the guns???

We have stopped using Ryan air, at two occasions we have had one guy stay behind with all our markers and go with Norwegian back.

Use Norwegian nice prices, nice people and not the bitchy irish underpaid personell:D

Hmmm.... Ryan Air has almost always been known for not allowing markers on board, right?

The bottle issue is new to me - when going to the masters this past weekend, we had 6 of us fly Ryan Air (WITH their bottles/airsystems, seperated though!) and 2 of us fly with other companies and have all of our markers.

The bottles/airsystems were no problem even with Ryan Air - and 2 of the girls even flew from Norway? :)

clap clap TFN

any airline?
how can you say that when there is obviously issues here with airlines NOT allowing tanks on board?!

sigh..
Lol :)

Andy has already stated that some of the tanks still had regs on them. THAT is the problem, not the bottles themselves.

If ALL tanks are open and security can see into the tank, then why would they not allow it? It is also XRayable (;)), so the only reason they would not want any airsystems on board is because of the chance of pressure build up.

Christian is deffinately right though, Ryan Air suck for paintball travel

Yes but our airline has stated reg on or not, its doesnt matter.

Now, you might say, like someone else did, that we just spoke to some office jokey reading out the corporate rights, and that at an airport it wouldnt make a difference.

However - should we be prepared for hassle and inconvenince and perhaps security problems trying to "smuggle" tanks in our luggage ?!? thats the question.

and no, its not Ryan Air

We Asked if we could take the tanks with the regs off and it was still no you couldnt.
