Air Europa says that if you transport electronic cigarettes they must go in your hand luggage, never in checked baggage, because these items present a potential risk of overheating that can cause the baggage holding them to ignite. The airline says the same risk applies to parts used with electronic cigarettes, such as batteries, resistors and vaporizers.
