but just one. My wife a bic in her purse and one in a carryon bag. They told her one was fine, but not tow.

Go figure.

I pack my knives and cigar clippers in checked bags and one good lighter goes carry-on.

You, sir or madam, win the Kewpie doll. I had a cheapo Bic in my pocket plus two in my shaving kit - worked just fine to light my Arturo Fuentes on my trip. And never once did the airport security goons even raise an eyebrow.

The key thing here, was that they were empty lighters. In essence, since they can't fuction, they could have just given them to him.
