In preparation for our vacation to Costa Rica I was reviewing the Canadian government’s list of items that should/should not be packed in your carry-on or checked luggage. I was shocked to find out that catapults are not allowed in either your carry on or checked luggage! Catapults are so bad, they’ve made the list twice!
Other honorable mentions include:
- Hand Grenades
- Molotov Cocktails
- Nitroglycerin (this is OK when in medication format)
If you’re planning some air travel in the near future – leave your catapult at home! Maple Syrup and spread is completely OK though!
