But realistically, they probably had to put this on the list because some retard tried to bring one on a flight and argued and probably tried to sue the airline because he couldn't bring his catapult into the passenger cabin.
According to Air Canada, all carry-on liquids and gels must be in a see-through container no larger than 100mL and individually sealed in resealable bags. Whatever. But what I'm seriously concerned about is my lip chap.
I am so addicted to lip chap, that I honestly can't go more than eight hours without using some...and that's not a happy eight hours. One time I went 24 hours and I nearly checked myself into an insane asylum. I don't know what they put into lip chap, but I bet it comes from Columbia and a lot of people died and a lot of people got rich getting it into the country.
Will my lip chap be considered a "gel" and therefore be contra-ban since it's not in a see through container??? The flight from Toronto to Hanoi, Vietnam is over 24 hours!
If they take it, I'll have chewed off my lips before I get to Vancouver. I guess I won't even be able to catapult myself out of the plane when I go nuts!
I know I have a problem when I stash lip chaps where ever I frequent. I've got two at work, one in my car, one in Debbie's, one in my hockey bag, kitchen, bedroom, dining room and under the coffee table. I'm also packing three in my checked luggage and one in my pocket for the flight.
And my lips aren't even chapped. If I go without, my lips feel like they are on fire, burning and feel like they're peeling and cracking even when they're smoother than the day I was born.
Oh well. Maybe Debbie can smuggle me some on board.

hey jeff! ok, here's the scoop on the lip chap. when i went to spain last year they allowed me to take the stick chap but they took my friend's blistex that was in the container. they said it had to be in stick form. i just carried the stick lip chap in my carry-on and they didn't care. have a great trip! -Lisa F
Lisa, you have no idea how much comfort you've given me!
Don't even think about cutting your nails on the flight.
I see I just posted on the same general topic.
I should have stopped in here, first.
If Debbie's smuggling chapstick for you, I don't want to know where she's putting it. And would you still use it??
All this fuss and you barely used it while you were here... This is a humid place... it's not the Canadian winter!
OVERBLOWN!!!
