As this item is basically an article of clothing, it is completely legal to travel with this... the legality of what you put in or on it is going to depend on where and how you are traveling.

Question for the 2 people who answered, "Yes": Yes it can be taken on flights as a check in or Yes it has prohibited items per TSA?

No, you have to fill it up with Butane. It works like a charm. It's much better than my other lighter.Don't try toget on an airplane with it tho.

Yes it is. It is compact and easy can be carried on or checked depending on the airline.

It is pre-drilled for two padlocks left and right.It must be flown as checked baggage (unloaded), ammunition in separate locked box.you can't beat the price. Best bang for the buck!Most important, different airlines have different regulations.Call in advance and they will give you the specifics. All firearms must be checkedat the ticket counter, you cannot take it in the cabin. Make certain you call ahead!!

It is my understanding (from the package of butane I purchased) that each passenger is allowed one refill . It should be in checked baggage. I used my curling iron for 8 days and didn't go through one cartridge, but I used it only for a small amount of time each day. The TSA guidelines stated that butane was not allowed. I went by what the package said. Good luck!

Based on the FAA Office of Hazardous Materials Safety who enforces the DOT Hazardous Materials safety regulations in aviation, and the TSA security regulations, containers of lighter fluid or gas (butane, propane, etc.) are forbidden in carry on and checked baggage.

No, they will not let you. But you might be able to have it in your plastic bag that you show. Check how much liquid is allowed on the flight. I have had mine taken when I have flown. So I pack it.

Al, thanks. I use mine to carry camera equipment, so it wouldn't apply under the same rules for traveling with firearms. When I used to travel up to ND Pheasant hunting, we opened the cases at the counter, they checked to see that the shotguns were unloaded and no shells in the case, they stickered the case as inspected, I locked it and they put it in the conveyor to the plane.

Hi David. The Zippo Fuel Canister is designed to hold liquid lighter fluid only, not butane.

1) isopro canisters are not available empty, they are factory charged like a propane tank but mini sized. 2) U.S. or otherwise they are available at many sporting goods stores that sell camp gear. 3) YES ispro canister stoves are very easy to use and an affordable choice. BUT... 4) You can NOT fly isopro canisters anywhere, US or international, so you have to buy them overseas if that is your stove/fuel of choice. 5) You also can NOT fly camp stoves, at least not in the US and often International will prevent flying with them. The 'official' rule is, if it is brand new, never been used, has NO fuel or residue in it you could fly it BUT since TSA would really have no way of knowing if its new they will often remove it from your luggage if it is found. No to mention, just having it in your luggage even if new gives them cause to open and search your luggage, which then opens up the possibility of things becoming 'lost'.... lastly, my personal, prefereance and experience is to make an alcohol stove at your destination, youtube search for 'pop can alcohol stove'. Easy, cheap and, available world wide, without having to fly the stove or the fuel. They work.

I don't believe so, I always remember the plane that went down in the FL everglades they blamed on oxygen canisters.We discarded ours in AK before we flew home and bought new once we got there. Check with the airline, I believe they have lists on their websites of acceptable items.

The product is water-based so it is non-flammable. However whether or not you would be able to carry aboard a plane is a question that I would refer you to contact your specific airline, or the TSA if you're flying a US airline. If I had to guess, I would guess that you "are not" going to be able to take it aboard in carry-on luggage in today's heightened security environment. Perhaps it can be in "checked" baggage, but again I would refer you to your specific airline or the TSA for the definitive answer.

Not in a carryon. Too big. Not sure about it in the luggage. It is not flammable and I am sure was sent by plane to me via ups.

I have been permitted to carry it in on flights. I followed advice I read somewhere to freeze it as solid as possible first. I don't know whether that made a difference. In any event as long as you declare it, meaning you tell the officers as you're going through security that you have it and any other liquids, they should be able to swab it and let you through. No guaranties, but I've never had a problem. Sending it with your checked luggage wouldn't be a problem. Good luck!

According to the Transportation Security Administration, you can have one in your checked luggage, but NOT in your carryon bags. It is one of several "Martial Arts/Self Defense" items that are prohibited from carryon luggage.
