Getting Weed on the Plane in Oakland is Easy
If you are a medical marijuana patient in California, traveling with your weed isn’t going to be a problem anymore if you fly out of Oakland. Why isn’t it like that everywhere?
The policy is spelled out in a three-page document quietly enacted last year by the Alameda County Sheriff’s Office. It states that if deputies determine someone is a qualified patient or primary caregiver as defined by California law and has eight ounces or less of the drug, he or she can keep it and board the plane.
Deputies warn the pot-carrying passengers that they may be committing a felony upon arrival when they set foot in a jurisdiction where medical marijuana is not recognized. But they say they don’t call ahead to alert authorities on the other end.
“We never have. We’re certainly within our right to, but we never have,” said Sgt. J.D. Nelson, a spokesman for the sheriff’s office. “Our notification of the passengers is for their own safety and well-being.”
If you do fly out of Oakland and you arrive anywhere (besides Amsterdam) make sure that you keep it cool.
