...allow them after a tobacco meeting? After 911 the Republican government outlawed Bic style lighters on planes but after a meeting with tobacco people they allow two Bic style lighters on planes even three days after the underwear bomber in Detroit used a lighter to try. I know because I flew three days after that and they gave me my two lighter back even though I din`t have smokes on me.
What is wrong with having a bowl of match books when you get off the plane for smokers, I am sure a airline or airport restaurant would pay to have their name on them.
Yes I know Obama has not changes the Republican law.
