CIGARS WERE BANNED ON PLANES IN 1973, NOT THE 1990s

The history of smoking on commercial airlines is more complicated than most people realize. In 1973, the US Civil Aeronautics Board created smoking sections on flights and banned cigar and pipe smoking entirely — 17 years before cigarettes were banned. The reasoning was practical: cigars produced stronger, more concentrated smoke with more complaints per incident. Tobacco lobbying kept cigarettes in the air until 1988 (domestic flights under 2 hours) and 1990 (most domestic flights). International flights carrying US passengers weren't smoke-free until 2000. The cigar got banned first not because it was worse — but because it had fewer people defending it.
What assumption about the smoking ban timeline did this break for you?
