Freaking about a frisking as you head through airport security with your toys in tow?

Lovehoney shares top tips on stress-free travel with your favourite pleasure picks. Meanwhile, holiday rentals destination HomeToGo has the lowdown on the world's 100 sexiest beaches to help you turn up the heat this summer!

How to travel with sex toys

There’s nothing like jettisoning work, childcare and domestic drudgery for a few days to bring back that sexual spark, which is why Lovehoney is on a mission to help normalise taking sex toys on holidays.

Discretion is key

While larger dildos and vibrators might be harder to disguise, these days there are a wealth of super discreet looking toys that will barely raise an eyebrow should your bags get searched. Lovehoney’s new Venus Glow is a cute, shell-shaped clitoral suction toy which can be tucked away in an inner pocket of your suitcase. With a playful design yet powerful functionality, it’s the perfect pick for any trip. Why not try a petite bullet vibrator as well? Many sex toys also now come in handy travel bags to make travelling even easier.

Know your liquid limits

If you’re planning to take lube on holiday with you, don’t forget to check if where you’re flying from is enforcing the 100ml rule. There are plenty of options out there that come in petite packaging, or why not decant your lube into a travel bottle for even more discretion?

Research your destination

Some countries like India, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, the Maldives, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates, have restrictions on sex toys. Make sure to do your research ahead of time to avoid the risk of having your vibrator confiscated. When it comes to flying with intimate objects, consult the handy "What Can I Bring?" search tool on the TSA website. Enter the item you're planning to pack, such as "vibrator," and you'll quickly be able to see if it's permitted and any restrictions that might apply.

Beware of the Buzz

If the tell-tale buzzing suitcase scenario has you thinking you’d rather leave your sex toys at home, fret not, as lots of toys come with built in travel locks! How these are activated will vary between toys, but are usually performed by a very simple action (such as double tapping the power button). No need to worry about any unwanted buzzing during your flight, and you’ll have a fully powered vibe on the other side!

Embrace pleasure

Sexual pleasure is still sadly somewhat stigmatised, but there’s absolutely nothing wrong with travelling with sex toys, so even if you get searched, it’s important to remember that you’re doing absolutely nothing wrong! Be confident and transparent. You certainly won’t be the first person to travel with sex toys that security have seen, and you won’t be the last!
