Los Angeles International Airport is lets you carry-on chronic
If you're currently watching this while on vacay in Cali: pack your stash.

Smoking in the airport is still not allowed, however, and travelers are subject to cannabis laws where ever they land.
DISCLAIMER: Planes are still subject to federal law, which means you could still face fines for carrying
