I'm about to travel via Wizz Air and only have hand baggage. Can I bring condoms on board?

19What exactly are you worried about? Is there a specific reason why you think you can't take condoms on board?– dratOct 15, 2015 at 9:57

2@drat Presumably the concern that you might try to use them during the flight ;)– RelaxedOct 15, 2015 at 10:22

3If you are going to blow balloons with them in the cabin, then no. Else why would they refuse ?– DumbCoderOct 15, 2015 at 10:22

2@DumbCoder balloons are a problem in train stations but I don't see why they'd be a problem on planes.– Golden CuyOct 15, 2015 at 10:39

Yes, and there are great articles online detailing travelling with condoms. They're not liquids, flammable or on any of the TSA unapproved lists, so you're totally fine to take them. However, remember they're meant to be stored at room temperature as they are still medical devices you don't want to take risks with damaging them. Don't store them with sharp items in your carry-on (even pens etc). If your laptop or phone gets really warm, it's best not to have them side-by-side either.
However, there are also stories of travellers being detained because of the condoms in their luggage, where they were accused of being working girls(!), so ... all things considered, it might be better to just get some at the destination.

4As the old joke goes "Sir, why did you bring condoms? Now we're gonna have to do a full cavity search" -> "my plan is working~" Oct 15, 2015 at 16:39
