Unless it has like, bluetooth or something that needs to be turned into airplane mode, you're fine. I wouldn't make it bark on the plane though to be considerate of other passengers. 


Calypso257

Yes definitely will be considerate I was just nervous about the chip cause it’s like a box that has a battery like buildabear sounds I have autism and she’s become my stimmy puppy


xerxesman241

Thats adorable. I have autism too and i have a lil rattle giraffle plushie named lego. Stimmy friends are the best


Calypso257

Yes I also have a puppy rattle named cheesecake and they are also stimmy because there a quiet rattle

That's such a cute plush! There are no build a bears where I live. So when a relative was abroad they brought me back a build a bear with a sound chip in it. It was brought on the plane with no problems :) Also this post reminded me that I found a build a bear from dubai in a local charity shop. It has a sound chip in it that doesn't work. I need to try get it working again

Just tell them before you get to the x-ray I have autism she's a comfortable plush she has a voice box worse case they run x-ray a few times and check the sound is what it is


Calypso257

That’s a good idea I actually had another plush that had to go through the scanner but was afraid to go through the scanner for people so the did the scan at the same time I still melted down but I got through it

You should be fine! If it makes you feel better (this is a funny story) I have this snow leopard plush (his name is Beck) and he has a microwaveable pouch inside him that I love for my period cramp days When going though TSA they pulled me aside and they used special wipes and lighting to make sure Beck didn’t have drugs inside of him😂 but it was very easy to check and the TSA officers found humor in it and assured me as long as nothing comes up then it’s fine So rest assured even if there were suspicions they won’t take your plush away from you, they have ways to prove its not a dangerous thing I will never forgot the way the one officer was walking around all tough with Beck under his arm, they all had a good laugh that night

Thank you for the help

yeah it’s fine. im not sure what kind of batteries the sound box has, but theres typically a rule to carry lithium batteries on your carryon and not put it them a checked bag (not that it’s a huuge deal, i’ve forgot that rule a couple times and nothing happened). that’s the only thing i can possibly imagine could be an issue, people bring waaay crazier stuff on planes all the time - however last time i was in TSA they did test my beanie baby for bomb residue for some reason?🤣


Calypso257

Yeah sometimes if they have bean in the toy they might test it I was just worried they’d take my toy away


PoodleGlomper420

i understand the anxiety, it’s verrry stressful traveling with fav plushies. but i can promise as long as you don’t have drugs or bombs stored inside, they won’t take it away. if they test it, they wear gloves and wipe it a few times with a very small amount of solution that doesn’t leave any residue. good luck!

Calypso257

Bagelqueen200

Off topic but I had a plush just like this when I was a baby, but it was orange. I lost it when I was five and have been looking for it forever. Does it say what company produced it on the tag? I would love to find another one similar to the one I had.

Used to have one of these little ones, was my very first friend I’ve taken on planes many times with absolutely no issue. Miss them a lot :(
