Bloody Yanks! Why the hell are they allowing people to take matches on board in the first place?!

These things were already banned on flights before 9/11, let alone after!

The unidentified woman had an unspecified medical condition, Associated Press news agency said.
It's called "SBSS", which stands for "Stupid Bloody Seppo Syndrome"!

She was carrying safety matches, which the TSA allows in carry-on luggage.

The matches are not allowed to be struck, however.
Duh!!! So what's the point of taking them on board?!

Good grief.

Good grief.

Virgin Atlantic are the same out of Barbados - they allow a single box of safety matches to be carried i your hand luggage...

great for us smokers and fart lighters!

bit worrying on the terrorism side as the Shoe Bomber almost lit his bomb with matches legitimately carried on board!

I totally agree, in the age of terrorism which we live in, to still allow matches to be taken on board a plane is absolute lunacy!!

She must've had some seriously stinky farts though!!

I can't rememebr now but aren't aerosolsallowed in your hand luggage or perfume that may have been a much better option.

Well you;d prob much rather sit next to her than me on the flight to Aus 3 kids in tow, the older two will be really good but even half the plane away you'll be able to hear bubba cause he won't be a happy boy
Can guaruntee you that

Hey, I tell ya what though! Just how bloody embarrasing is it when you really DO need a good old fart (quite common after several airline meals in a row on long haul)????

I have never known my farts to stink for so long and to smell so bad!! :scared:

Have none of you people seen Fahrenheit 911?????

Matches are and always have been allowed on the planes because of the very powerful smoking lobby.

Think about all those people wanting to light up as soon as they get off the plane.
