Thread: DE on the plane

Do they have DE blades at Walgreens or CVS? I wasn't able to find any on the websites. That would be the safest way to go. I'm getting too old to take risks any more. OK, Call me a Sissy. I just don't really want to push my luck in this situation. Think I'll just drag a DE along with me and leave the blade out. I should be able to find a blade somewhere, right? Chicken, I know.

BTW, I'll make this short so I don't bring anyone down but,,,
My mother's Husband died. I'm thinking he was pushing 90 yrs. He was a great guy. Not my father and had only been part of the family for about 15 years. I've only spent time with him 3 or 4 times. He was a big Church going, God fearing man and I had a lot of respect for him. But I know my mother will want me around so I'm taking a couple, on-the-spir-of-the-moment days for family reasons. I know you all understand.

Bad timing too, as I just started my new job this Monday. But my new boss understood and let me get a couple days in before leaving. I'll be back to work next Monday. And Yes! I'm still going to be a/The GASMAN! What the hell else would I do? LOL.

I'm sure you'll be able to find blades Jerry. No worries there.

Sorry to hear of the lose in the family. Be there for your mom, she needs the support, you're a good son

Thanks Dave. I'll still be checking in when I can. Most likely be board out of my mind so you guys will keep me going. Got to get up at god-auful in the morning so I'm out!

Hello Jerry,
Last summer the wife and I took a few days to warmer climes and flew WestJet out of Calgary Canada.
Silly me,.....without thinking i packed a loaded DE razor in my carry on.
Needless to say i was pulled aside and politely asked to open my luggage and explain why i was carrying a loaded DE?
A little embarrassing, i should have known better and surrendered the blade and a package of Feathers.
My guess is they don't see many DE's

The blades they sell at the CVS here say they are made in Israel so they might be made by Persona. IIRC they have some at the Rite-Aide as well. Sorry about your (and your Moms ) loss.

Took the DE but with no blade. At the TSA they pulled my bag aside and pulled out the DE. Guess the blade wouldnt have made it thru anyway. Then i had to show two people how to open the thing. Young people have no idea. Although i did get a special pass at the medal detector. Guessing because im getting old. I aint old yet dammit! Ha.

Sorry to hear of your loss in the family, Jerry.
A DE...!! WHATS THAT.!!!
I'd have to pack a straight in my suitcase, only DE I have, was my fathers. And they aint getting it..!!

My condolences to you and your family, Jerry--it's great that you can be there to support your Mom.

Good call on not bringing a blade in your DE...that's not being chicken, just being smart! CVS or Walgreens should have blades; if not, you can always do the BIC razor burn thing.

Sorry To Hear That Jerry, Be Safe ,

next time, just mail some to your destination, but like I said, Walgreens, CVS, Or Rite Aid, they all carry a blade, not my favorite blade but a decent blade for not having your regular ones. anytime I have flown, I package up a pack of Feathers and mail them to my hotel to hold at the counter, or if for family I send to there house, cost... about 1$
