Yes. I was told they are not allowed as carry on and not allowed as
checked baggage. Ironic as all over water planes have a co2 cartridge
under every seat.

The airline at least has the option of inspecting their own CO2 cartridges
and assuring that they do not represent a hazard. That cylinder that you
might bring aboard will have been exposed to salt water, banged around and
could be who knows how old.

If the goal of terrorism is to paralyze their victims with fear then we have
been beaten by our own stupid paranoia. Anyone who is not only too cowardly
to defend their own person, but also too paranoid to allow pilots to carry
guns deserve to die as slaves - period. The people who survived the
building of America would be ashamed of what we have become!
