BTW, this doesn't mean you can refill your zippo. Every year or so we hear about a plane that made an emergency landing or arrested a passenger for bringing lighter fluid (in a can) on board and refilling their lighter en route.

My favorite story was the LA gangster who freaked over the fact that he was carrying PCP in baby bottles so he poured them on the seat. He was arrested and the seat pads replaced. He might have been sampling the wares, one suspects. Happened inside the last year, departing from LAX.
