You can't bring ligthers to the airport, so they would make you throw it away once you passed security. I was at the airport last week, and didn't see anything Zippo, or lighters of any kind.

I don't think that you can take ANY lighter through airport security anymore. You might be able to sneak your Zippo in your suitcase if you are checking baggage, but I don't think under any circumstances could you carry one on. I wouldn't try it if you are really attached to it. OR... call your airline and ask them.
Funny thing, though - I collect matchbooks and have managed more than once to bring back souvenir matchbooks from trips since 9/11....... always in my checked luggage. If you are a smoker, try sneaking a book of matches in one of your checked bags. That way you won't have to stand outside the terminal asking strangers if they have a light.

Forget it no carry on matches or lighters of any type are allowed past the last check point and long gone are they the days when you can even find a match beyond that point so I agree if your going to try use something that you do not mind losing or just simply not at all
