I can understand banning smoking in a place where the air is recirculated, but how much could this possibly affect other people? More than an asthma inhaler? I doubt it’s fun being addicted to nicotine, but it is what it is, and some flights are pretty long.

Sounds like the guy was nuts (pun intended). If it wasn’t the fake cigarette it would’ve been something else.
OMG, what if the stewardess was allergic to peanuts!
