Maybe just buy a cheap pair to take with you just in case?

I also take a self addressed pre stamped envelope just in case I need to mail them to myself. I fly all the time with my needles. Never had a problem.

I’ve flown to Budapest, Dominican Republic and throughout Canada (domestically for me) and had no issues bringing my chiaogoos! I do only bring the needles sizes I need though in case so on they off chance they take them I only loose a size or two. I always take them in my carry on, and take my case out while going through security and say “THESE ARE KNITTING NEEDLES” LOL

I took some cheap ones I didn’t care about JUST IN CASE. and put it with random pencils too because I would’ve cried if they took them. I didn’t care about the needles, but I need my knitting. They didn’t take them away at the airport.

I’ve heard it also helps if you have an active project on a pair, proving they’re actually for knitting but idk!

Check the airport guidelines where you’re flying! I have TSA safe scissors but they got taken in Australia because they’re sticklers 😖

I’ve never had a problem but it is spooky! I’ve heard of people taking them off the cord and putting them in a pencil case. I have heard that metal needles get taken more than wood 🤷♀️

I’ve flown with interchangeables and I’ve just taken the tips off to go through security. Recently I flew from Canada to London and back. Good luck!

cruise ships do not care about knitting needles haha they usually have a knitting group meetup on board

Wait you’re already married?! Congrats :) I would take it, but take the tips off and put them in a makeup bag or something.

If you’re flying into the US to take the cruise you’re good!

So technically you CAN take knitting needles on both the flight and on the cruisebased in my recent travels and MUCH research… However, I have seen that wood needles are less likely to be taken. Also, some tips I saw were to take the needs off the project and bring them in a small pencil case/bag.

I think for the most part you’re good traveling in the US. I flew from NV to FL with my ciaogoos just fine 😊 and yes you can bring them on cruise ships!

never had them taken in the us! but chances are higher outside of the states :( I’ve gotten away with it though outside of the us by putting them in a little pen case with some other pens!
