Exactly, just put batteries, lighters etc in your checked baggage and you will not have a problem. We had our double A batteries taken away from our carry on. A bit weird as soon as you get in the departure lounge, Duracell double a batteries are for sale in the kiosks...

: : I can only speak from experience when trying to leave the country through International departures. The Nepali Police are confiscating lighters before boarding the plane. What is this stuff your wish to burn on the Everest trail? Toilet paper!!

: Exactly! From what I understand (haven't been there yet myself) that your TP should be burned. So the reason for my question is, how do you get a lighter (expensive or otherwise) past security?

: And yes, Soren is correct. There are items (alot of them) that you can't take into the cabin. And as such, I'm sure there are ways around any problem. So, how about in checked baggage? Is it allowed there?

: Thanks again!
