Headed to Airborne soon and saw smoking was allowed in designated areas does this also apply to vapes like bidi sticks or puff bars ?

The policy isn't for smoking it's for tobacco products.

In airborne school you can smoke and use tobacco products before and after training. At no point can you have them on you during training. True story, when I was in jump school a private got caught with a can of dip after our 5th jump, waiting for the busses and he was dropped from the course. Big no no.

Per AR 600-63 smoking is not allowed except in designated smoking areas. E-cigarettes and like devices (vaping) are considered smoking, with the exception of vehicles. The regulation specifically states tobacco products may not be used in vehicles and while that is a grey area it's best not to test it.

That said you may be subject to command policies that further restrict the regulation due to the training environment or just because the command says so.

Additionally vaping in the barracks is typically a no go and usually states so in the housing policy. While housing policies are not typically punitive it's not a good idea with be pushing peoples buttons with technicalities. Great way to end up on someone's radar in a bad way.

You'll probably be allowed to vape in your down time in designated areas but if you're overly concerned about being able to do it I wouldn't bother and just give it up for the duration of the training. You'll also find vaping rules are enforced overseas depending on the unit, so that's something to keep in mind down the road.

If you want to be a super duper paratrooper, then don't create any doubt.

Hey! Exciting times ahead at Airborne! Generally, places that allow smoking often include vaping, but it's always good to double-check. Bidi sticks and puff bars usually fall under the smoking/vaping category.

To be sure, I'd recommend reaching out to Airborne directly or checking their guidelines. And if you're on the lookout for some quality vapes, consider checking out https://www.buyvapesbulk.co.uk/. They might have just what you need for a smooth experience.

The last time I went to Airborne, they were pretty strict about where you could smoke. Smoking was only okay in certain spots. But with vaping, it seemed more relaxed. I used my vape in places where smoking wasn't allowed and didn't have any problems. Still, it's a good idea to double-check the rules or ask someone when you're there.

Because of this, I ended up buying more vapes for my trip. I found this fantastic offer on https://www.shishavibe.com/, where I got five vapes for just 20 pounds. It was an excellent deal and super helpful while I was at Airborne.
