TSA Fuckers!!!!!!!!

Lighters Added to Prohibited Items List

On that date, lighters will be treated as any other prohibited item and passengers will need to surrender them to the TSA or leave them in their vehicle or with someone who is not traveling. TSA is providing this 45-day grace period to allow travelers to adjust to the new policy. You will not be asked to surrender lighters at the checkpoint until April 14, although screeners may remind travelers about the upcoming change during the screening process.

As in the past, lighters are still considered hazardous materials and thus are not allowed in checked baggage. Passengers are strongly encouraged to leave these items at home. While passengers may be able to ship lighters home using a private shipping company, there is usually a substantial fee.

Torch lighters have already been banned from secure areas of airports. TSA put ALL lighters on the Prohibited Items List to reduce a security vulnerability and ease the operational challenge of distinguishing between types of lighters. TSA does not expect the expanded measure to impact wait times at security checkpoints.

TSA is partnering with airport operators to provide them latitude to identify potential ignition sources for smokers in the secure areas of airports. Passengers are allowed to bring up to four books of matches beyond the checkpoint.
