Travelling to a nudist event
 

I will shortly be travelling from London to the South of France to take part in a "clothes free" event.

In keeping with my life philosophy, I plan to be naked for as much of the journey as possible.

Should I disrobe before clearing security, or would it be advisable to wait until boarding the aircraft before removing my clothes? I am not sure on BAA's policy on conducting searches of naked passengers.

I don't think you'll even get to your destination if you follow your philosophy in practical terms!

As a naturist, who has travelled to many a nude beach holiday ... I can say that I travel in the mental state of my approaching destination but not the physical as the draughts are just too uncomfortable. :p

Welcome aboard nudeflyer, as first posts go - that probably takes the trophy - or the clothes as the case may be ... If you are simply trolling in the wee small hours (I'm working!) then you may find your welcome here to be as warm as you hope the beach will be. :}

Start as you mean to go on, travel to the airport naked and then pass security in that condition, you won't have to worry about taking your shoes or belt off.

Just remember to wash before you go.

Thanks, nudeflyer. You made me laugh on a cold, rainy summer's morning. :ok:

I see no practical reason why I could not travel naked, and I intend to be a pioneer of this modus operandi.

Of course, I am fully aware of textile sensibilities, but I'm sure my fellow passengers could simply avert their eyes during this short flight.

On a practical note, a small bumbag should suffice to carry my passport, and indeed to cover my "fleshy flagpole" (as Mum used to call it) at the most important moment.

Hopefully you won't be reading about me in the news!

Something tells me, we will!!

Try this airline Naked-Air - Miami - Cancun - Jamaica

Dimly recall from law school days that it's a public order offence; if you tried it in the terminal you'd be carted off by airport police and probably be arrested.

Of course, it would be quite interesting to see how the cabin crew would handle it if you waited until airborne before disrobing... (I am, of course, not encouraging this).:=

(I can't access Tightslot's link; forgive me if i've missed something material as a result).

[Edited to add: this is in fact a response to stewmath's post, which now mysteriously appears below mine].

I could just imagine someone walking through airport security naked wearing nothing but a bumbag. Just makes me think of some of the stuff the guys do on jackass. (not calling you a jackass by the way. lol just the name of the program).

But on a serious note would the airport even allow you to walk through security naked? Im certain theres going to be set policies or laws on it, maybe clearing it with the airport first might be a good idea.

I firmly believe it is my right to travel as god made me.

If people can tolerate a screaming scrote of a kid for a couple of hours, I don't see why the sight of my bare body should offend anyone.

It is time for people to get their principles out of the stone age.

You might believe it's your right but it's also people's right not to sit next to a naked man or woman if they so wish, on a full aeroplane it's not as if they have a lot of choice where they sit.

You can and will offend somebody, somewhere and you will make someone feel uncomfortable. Are you that selfish for the sake of a few hours?

However, the bottom line is you won't be allowed to travel in the buff.

And can I choose not to sit next to an obese heffer who takes up half my seat? Or a person with bad body odour?

Have you considered the consequences, if the a/c is full of shell suite chavs well boozed up? Or you start to get a little stiffy on when an attractive cc member (no joke) walks past? And if your 'straight' how would you feel sitting next to a gay male passenger who takes great interest in you, bet you'll be too up tight to have a doze/40 winks.:E

The 'naked rambler' is back in the news today BBC News - 'Naked rambler' Steven Gough jailed again

Nudist traveller, stone age clothing was mainly made form animal skins and bits of bone to fasten it together, so what are you saying about stone age principles?

How many people have you seen wearing animal skins on flights recently (no tailored varieties allowed.)

Apart from zulus and mess with them at your own peril as you might find out why an iklwa is called an iklwa.

I wonder, if you travel nude, do you still have to submit to the new "body-scanners" at some major airports? The ones people say show you nude to the security officers

nudeflyer - please take your own seat cushion with you, or at least a cover for one, I don't want your seat after you have sat on it in the 'buff' for a couple of hours:yuk:


(Good troll by the way, you have been here before under a different name, but suggesting something equally ridiculous, turned into quite an amusing thread).


Countdown to Jet Blast, 10...........9.............

Then may I suggest you travel as God made you, but don't be entirely surprised if the police/security ask you politely to follow them into their office.

Okay, Nudeflyer, so when and where is this great event taking place? If you're standing by your prinicples I assume you won't mind telling us.

My guess would be Bergerac. Watch out fellow passengers on flights FR854 / FR8592!

Awwww, Tightslot we're having fun! Don't be grumpy with us...

Someone has done the legwork: Woman in strop strip for Bermuda airport customs ? The Register

Seems after customs is the key.

No. Although the fatty didn't intentionally put on fifty pounds just for a flight to France and the stinky one probably can't help it.

You however, can remain clothed.

OK, nudeflyer, cut the crap - we're calling your bluff (buff?). We want dates, times and flight numbers. Otherwise, sounds like a load of :mad: to me.

Tangent Alert
 

Nudists...lots of them on naked bike ride across London earlier this year, however astonished at the number of folks that HIRED a Boris Bike and didn't use a towel to sit on.

That was an eye opener, slightly creepy that
1) Most were not attractive and my eyes bled for days afterwards
2) Some had very young kids wearing next to nothing along with them....felt seedy, that did.

Hence not really thinking an aluminium tube miles in the sky is the best place for something provocative like nudity with kids around.

Of course the bum bag would need to go through the x-ray at security. Presumably they will let you hang onto your passport or boarding pass. Would they be big enough if you don't mind me asking?
:O

In the unlikely event of being allowed to board the (air-conditioned) aircraft - be prepared for comments from the cabin crew along the lines of "Oh I didn't realise they came that small."

Of course you can be reasonably sure that, if you got that far, CC would treat the matter with a certain sense of humour (although probably a cruel rather than a sympathetic one).

Airport security, on the other hand, would be likely to suffer complete sense of humour failure. Then again "failure" implies something that was serviceable to begin with so let's skim over that one.

I feel it would be OK to allow my manhood to hang free for the purposes of security. At least it cannot be said I am hiding any contraband.

In terms of cleanliness, I intend to bring my own "nude sheet" which I shall be draping over my seat.

nudefyer - you are probably the finest Troll we have seen here for many moons.

SOE I know it can seem strange that people of all shapes and sizes are happy to take their clothes off, and do so when possible, but it's called life. The great thing about naturism is that we all accept each other for how we are without criticism.

I realise that it can seem strange that children and young people can be happy to be naturist - but it happens like that all over the world. It helps them to not be concerned about their body image as dictated by the media.

Nudeflyer

If you annoy the cabin crew, they may apply the plasticuffs in a way that could cause your eyes to water :E

PAXboy has hit the nail on the head.

If I wish to travel naked, I will do so. There is nothing even remotely seedy about the mere absence of clothes, whatever company you keep.

The only "problems" are the ones that the prudish Joe public creates for itself.

I'm rether perplexed. Do you think MoLwill charge a supplement to passengers who wish to fly nude, or will he in future charge extra for carrying clothes (on passengers bodies) ?

On an aircraft I'm afraid you won't. If you choose to bare all after takeoff you will be met by the authorities.

Not my opinion, just a fact.

Maybe Nudeflyer could commission a lycra suit printed with the image of his body as seen through a whole body scanner?

Surely if it is okay to expect people to let the security peeps seem them like that, there is no problem?

Then he could travel nude, but not travel nude.

Lod Spandex masher, for someone with your h ndle, you are not exactly getting into the spirit of this thread.

TTR, you wouldn't want to see me in spandex:}
