Can I bring marijuana in my luggage?
               As of January 1, 2018, California law allows for individuals 21 years of age or older to possess up
               to 28.5 grams of marijuana for personal consumption. With the change in state law, the policy
               and procedures of the Los Angeles Airport Police Division (APD) regarding marijuana were
               updated to reflect this change. APD officers, who are California Peace Officers, have no
               jurisdiction to arrest individuals if they are complying with state law. However, airport guests
               should be aware that Transportation Security Administration (TSA) screening stations are under
               federal jurisdiction. Also, passengers should be aware that marijuana laws vary state by state
               and they are encouraged to check the laws of the states in which they plan to travel to.
