Travelling with Pipe/Tobacco at the airport

[afilter]

Guys,

Thanks for all the good info. I am coming home on leave form Afghanistan and was wondering this. I found out I cannot mail smoked pipes and opened baccy. So no more buying estates and having them shipped here.

I will also need to watch my baccy purchases. Although I can smoke alot between now and next spring.

I plan on carrying home a few pipes and leaving them there. I really only need my Meerschaum and one 1-2 other favorites with me.

As for the torch lighters I bought one of those TSA approved single lighter cases for checked baggage.

Thanks again, you saved me some time looking this up.
