How to Travel with Sex Toys
on Apr 26, 2023
Sex toys make for fantastic travel companions - whether you’re flying solo or with your boo, adding some toy time to your getaway increases excitement during use and relaxation afterward, which is exactly how vacations should go!
Unfortunately, many miss out on making their vacays extra steamy due to misconceptions about pleasure products being inconvenient to bring with them. While it’s true that some adult toys are best left at home (looking at you, giant sex machines), there are a wealth of sex toys that travel easily.
Travel-Friendly Sex Toy Features
So which sex toys should you invite to join you on your next trip? There are a few different qualities that make a pleasure product perfect to vacation with. For some, a single one of these features will work, while others may desire a toy that checks multiple travel-friendly boxes.
Travel Lock or Removable Batteries
A buzzing suitcase that hints at the sexy contents inside is a common concern, but embarrassing airport incidences are easily avoidable. Many of today’s sex toys, especially those from premium brands, feature travel locks for this very reason! Travel locks require a particular pattern of button pushes to unlock them, meaning accidental pushes of your toy’s “ON” button from jostling around won’t power it up.
Battery-operated pleasure products are another great option for those worried about toys that cause noise. Simply remove the batteries before packing your sex toy, and you’ve got zero risk of it turning on during your travels!
Discreet Aesthetics
For the average traveler, the odds of airport security flagging your carry-on as suspicious and publicly rummaging through it are slim. Even on the off chance that they do, they’re not gonna pick up your sex toy and wave it in the air like they just don’t care – security is looking for weapons, not dildos. Weapons of mass destruction, not ass destruction, if you will. That being said, some folks prefer absolutely no one being privy to their titillating travel accessories. If that resonates with you, choosing visually discreet sex toys may ease your mind.
Some sex toys masquerade themselves as everyday products, while others may feature nondescript carrying cases that many would presume are holding electronics or other run-of-the-mill objects. And if you’re really anxious about someone guessing that your sex toy is a sex toy, you can always opt for dual-purpose pleasure products like massage candles that aren’t suspicious in the slightest.
Petite Size
Whether you want to fill almost every inch of your luggage with outfit options or are concerned about extra fees for heavy baggage, practically all travelers can agree that suitcase real estate is valuable. Opting for small sex toys like bullet vibrators or cock rings ensures you’ll have enough room for your essentials without having to give up sweet vacation orgasms.
Erotic Opportunities
When choosing which toys to bring with you on vacay, think about your intended use for them and compare the product’s features to your desires. For instance, if you know you wanna get down in your hotel’s spacious shower, you’ll need a waterproof sex toy. If you plan to play with a partner, you’ll probably want a pleasure product that’s designed for couples. Use common sense and pick a toy (or multiple ones) that you know will enhance your vacation experience and the vibe you’re trying to create!
