I’ve never experienced any issues with carrying an Apple pencil on commercial flights - or with airport security in general.


While my own Pencils are often located in the associated slot of the STM Dux Case that houses the iPad Pro 10.5”, or the Otterbox Symmetry 360 Case of the iPad Pro 12.9”, I’ve also carried the Pencil along with other pens in a jacket pocket.
