Under 18 and vaping
Not only should you not fly with a disposable vape, but it's also against the law for you to use one in general. While possession of a disposable vape is not illegal for those under 18, it is illegal to purchase them. The TSA may confiscate your device if they suspect you obtained it illegally.
Just put it in your carryon or in you coat pocket and let it go through the scanner. TSA isn't going to alert your parents; they are looking for bombs, not enforcing tobacco laws.
