I just bought one at my destination last time I traveled.
That's why I pack a $15 lighter. Just in case. But so far, so good.

By the way, I have (and love) a IM Corona Double Corona soft flame lighter. You are allowed to carry that on a plane on your person. First two times I took it, TSA guy had me open it and light it to verify soft flame. Last three trips, with it in the small tray going through X-ray, they haven't even questioned it. Perhaps TSA is getting better at recognizing torch vs soft flame...
