It's probably a dumb question, but I'm bringin my heavy metal traveldor fully loaded with stogies, on vacation next week. Would I be allowed to bring a cigar cutter? I hear that nail clippers aren't allowed, so my concern is I don't want them to confiscate my cutter. Should I just buy a cheap one when we arrive at our destination? I hope I can find one in St. Petersburg, FLA.

No problem, if you pack it away in your checked luggage...don't store it in your carry-on though.

Last I heard,You can bring a cigar cutter on carry on or checked luggage but no torch lighters in C/O or checked. X

I agree with DoubleD. I always pack my cutter in the checked bags. It is usually up to the discretion of the security people. If they dont think you should have it, they wont hesitate to take it.

My motto: "Dont bring anything through security that you cant afford to lose."

I have been bringing my cutters through in carry on but I still make sure that it is a cheapy, just in case.

You can't hardly smoke anywhere near an airport (except in one of those plexiglass tobacco prisons they have in some airports).

Just check your gar gear in your luggage or buy some cheap gear when you get there.
