Vote now, how are you gonna deal with new TSA lighter regulations?

[mithril]

i chose wooden matches because
1) i always get searched at airports
3) i don't like paper matches
4) airports jack up prices to much
5) only the best butane for me
and 6) well that sounds tempting, but i'd rather not encure the wrath of the TSA

then again i don't plan on traveling soon.

When I went to D.C. for inauguration back in January, I took my tobacco pipe. I thought the asses at the security gate took it, I couldn't find it for 3 weeks, it wasn't in the pocket I packed it in. I was so pissed off, I was like " that damn George W. Bush, small government conservative my ass, stealing my pipe at the airport." Then i found it in my dress shoes, lol.

I'll probably pack it without fuel and if I can't find good butane at my destination then I'll resort to wooden matches......Commercial air travel sucks!

I always end up grabing a bic lighter, usually at my regular stop right after I leave the airport....where they sell booze.

"Air travelers can now carry in their checked luggage, up to two previously-fueled Zippo lighters – if placed in an approved case.

The Zippo Cargo Case by OtterBox is the only container that complies with new DOT regulations. "

Wow, I didn't know that, thanks. Now, we need a torch lighter that is TSA approved cause I don't like Zippos.

No way those TSA bastids are getting my Extend!!

I don't fly much either, so it's not a big deal. The last couple of times I flew, I had my humi and my lighter (a colibra) in my luggage and nobody messed with it. This was right after 9/11. I was however pulled aside and had the wand, shoes, etc inspected. I was traveling alone, with a one-way ticket too, I fit the profile I guess.

My wife loves to rib me about that one. LMAO

Are cutters allowed in carry on luggage?
