I can't take it aboard the plane, and in most airports it's either very difficult or impossible to go back landside to check it in.
I have seen Mont Blanc stores at (I think) IAD and LAS. I don't know about everyone else, but I HATE it when I get all the way to the airport before I realize that I need a $500 pen!
