Personal “Toys”
Not trolling but visiting Dubai this week. Flying from LHR.
Visiting with my wife and we thought about bringing a personal toy.
I know this is officially banned but in RL would it be picked up and enforced coming in to Dubai?
Not the end of the world if it’s a huge problem at customs we won’t bother.
Just interested in if people have known of issues.
Cheers

Re: Personal “Toys”
and in real life, people bring them in all the time - apparently, it is better to have it in your hand luggage and put it in your pocket (jacket, not the velvet lined one you scoundrel) before you get off the plane.

Re: Personal “Toys”
More information than I needed. I'm sure people do bring them in successfully, and other banned items as well. I'm also sure that one of my sister's friends, who worked in Dubai for 7 years, took one back after a trip to Oz and had a very unpleasant 2 hours in Dubai airport after it was detected in a checked baggage scan.
