Courtney Love Upset Over Flight Ban

Courtney Love was reportedly banned from traveling on a flight after she was caught openly defying U.S anti-smoking laws by having a cigarette in the airport departure lounge. Love was set to fly from L.A. to London on Monday to attend a show organized by the Teenage Cancer Trust, but wasn't allowed to board her flight after she was caught smoking. She said:

"I had a fag in the first class lounge, like two hits, and they wouldn't let me on the plane with my daughter (Frances Bean, 15). They made some big thing like I'm a f**king terrorist or something. It was embarrassing."

However, a rep for Virgin Atlantic confirmed Love was allowed to fly to London the next night.

It's pretty clear that smoking isn't allowed anymore at airports in the U.S. unless in a designated room for smoking. I'm sure this wasn't the first time she was flying out of the U.S. but maybe it's the first time she had some consequences to the rules.
