Wire wool on an airplane

[posiview]

A bit left field, but I'm going to Majorca in a week and I'm looking to get some light painting and wire wool spinning.

Now, can I take wire wool on to an airplane, in my hold luggage??

Cheers.

If its in your hold luggage, then I can't how it falls under any of the restrictions. I can kind of see why not in the cabin though.

Also....just thinking they probably sell wire wool in Majorca

My thoughts too.

ring the airline and ask. if they say yes ask them to email you the answer. I always ring em to ask stuff like this, and often get other flying tips from them too

Probably but make sure you know what the Spanish for "Wire wool" is, ideally in the local idiom rather than a direct translation! Unless you know of a Ballearic (?sp?) equivalent to B&Q.

It could actually be seen as a high risk item, maybe depending how it's packed, because you can quite easily set it alight with a battery.

Easiest international language....find what you need and point at it!

Bricomart. They're everywhere (well in the south at least).

Edit> Bricomart is NOT spanish for Wire Wool by the way, in the same way that B&Q is not English for Wire Wool!
