Can I bring my lighter inside the airport?
I’m travelling to Peru soon and I’m curious if I can take my lighter with me. Back here in the states, they’ve already given a leeway when it comes to lighters. They allow one lighter per person inside the airport. I want to know if this applies to the airport in Peru too. They might not allow me to take my lighter with me when I travel back to America. If anyone could help me, I would really appreciate it.

If it's anything like my little scissors, the answer will be "it depends on who is screening your bags". My tiny little scissors are never a problem in the US, but they got confiscated in Peru. The blade is less than 1".
