I almost always sit on an exit row. I think being high is no worse than if someone was drunk.

Both are dangerous and selfish, IMO.

...and yet the full-time, full-pay cabin crew will happily serve you alcohol in
you seat :twisted:

Edit to add: I'm not having a go, it's just I made contract between myself and the airline to go from A to B for a considerable sum of cash.

If the plane is designed in such a way that the exits are not clear, or there are insufficient staff to get their charges off the plane safely (and thus exercise their duty of care), then it should not be flying, and each individual who clambers aboard takes that risk on to themselves.

It should not therefore be my responsibility to remain sober (or even concious) on the of-chance that the airline might need me to suddenly become a casual hand in their safety procedures.

I've never known anybody get a reduction in their ticket price for having to be 'on standby' like this, all that is achieved is that the airlines make fatter profits for their
shareholders and executives and get to skimp on staffing and safety.

Perhaps what is amazing is that they have managed to convince the customers that they are somehow being selfish and irrespinsible for actually trying to relax and enjoy their journey.

Agreed or what about waking from a sleeping pill induced sleep (which I know a lot of Americans do) - I'd rather a stoner to be sat there than a drunk or pill head.

That is a good point and I have def. taken sleeping pills so I will rethink my previous statement.

However, you best be able to handle your shit if you are going to space cake on the plane. Really not cool to have some rookie flipping out. I know that applies to no one here...LOL....

I've brought chocolates and spacecakes on planes b4 and consumed them in-flight with no probs. Typically, this occurs a few hours after a massive session finishing off all my remaining smoke in the morning.

My 2 cents: it's not worth it. I happen to think a body-stone is just a waste of cannabis, time, and money, especially when ur confined 2 ur seat for the duration and forced to watch the same 4 movies ad nauseum.

Having said that, I will prolly do it again. It's just a way to prolong the Amsterdam experience a few more hours into your return flight. :)

Will they stop you from coming home or what will they do?

I sketch as it is when I'm baked so maybe ease my fears a bit. There's no way I can fly home without being totally baked off my nut.


Just chew up a few grams with some water or a pint at the airport,I do :lol:.

The first time I went I was a bit nervous about smoking before the plane so I chose not to, I saw a group of german students outside the airport as I walked in blazing up who might I add all looked totally out of it. My second visit was alot different, me and 2 friends had a pure kush joint each just before we checked in and my god my eyes were red. I was kind of bricking it as we approached check in and the guy didn't batter an eyelid. Took me a while going through those metal detectors, my shorts fell down just past my arse, then I blushed so in fairness I looked like a right prune. Red face, red eyes and walking in diagonals, not good.
