Lighters. Since 2007, travelers have been allowed to carry lighters during their flights, either in their checked luggage, in their carry-on bag or on their person. Disposable lighters and Zippo lighters are acceptable under the current TSA regulations.
Many luggage stores sell suitcases described as 'carry-on', but these suitcases are sometimes larger than the size most airlines will accept. The safe maximum size is 45, in the form of a 22 x 14 x 9 bag. Some airlines allow up to as much as 55, but most do not. Not only do luggage stores and manufacturers not always tell you if their bag is legally sized or not, but they also frequently mis-measure their bag.
