Just flew from Milwaukee to DC 1.5 weeks ago. Had to toss both my tank lighter (one of the lighters from Deal Extreme, that has the big clear tank) and my ronson. The TSA agent told me that bic lighters are ok, but torch lighters are a no go.

Granted, I was trying to CARRY THESE ON, I think checked baggage is different, but they def would not let me carry these on in my 25 count travel humi. They did allow me to carry my Xikar v-cutter. I was just happy that the two lighters I tossed, which were rock stars with every light, only amounted to about $8, so no biggie
