The airline and train industry are still ruled by the federal government and traveling with cannabis is still prohibited.  It is NOT SMART to travel with marijuana to another country.  For in country, TSA officers do not search for marijuana but are required to report any potentially illegal item they find during the security screening process to local law enforcement. States where it is illegal can make it difficult for you. Gummies can be dump into a bag with other candies and pass unnoticed.

Most major rental car companies also have a non marijuana use policy. They require customers to sign a contract agreeing to not smoke or vape in a loaner car or a $150 to $250 cleaning fee. This charge will automatically hit your credit card.

Hotels are also not a fan of smelly marijuana. As a private property owner, they can ban the use and, again, charge an extra cleaning fee. It seems the average cost of from hotels are $500 for ridding the room of the smell.
