Banning the Use of Electronic Cigarettes on Airplanes Act of 2017 This bill requires the use of an electronic cigarette to be treated as smoking for purposes of provisions prohibiting smoking on passenger flights.
AI Summary
This bill amends Title 49 of the United States Code to treat the use of electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) the same as smoking for the purposes of prohibiting smoking on passenger flights. The bill defines an "electronic cigarette" as a device that delivers nicotine or other substances to a user in the form of a vapor, simulating the experience of smoking. This bill ensures that the existing federal prohibition on smoking on passenger flights also applies to the use of e-cigarettes.
