Flying with flares

[PabloPicasso]

Is it permissible to take a flare pack in hold baggage on commercial airlines?

Its a little scary that this question would even be asked as the risks are so obvious but the answer, of course, is a very emphatic NO.

That is surely a wind up.

The risks of flares causing a problem mid flight are the same as anywhere anytime on board. So are they safe to carry on passage?

Very droll. Ain't getting a rise out of a wind up as clumsy as that.

Quite simple. No

Transporting Flares they are Class 1 Dangerous Goods. Not permisable on Aircraft.
