Does anyone know if this meets TSA regulations for carry-on luggage?

TSA would have no reason to ban this device. http://www.forbes.com/pictures/ehlk45gmdd/which-knives-are-allowed/Unless you were using it to open cans of whupassYou can carry these thru TSA on your keyring.http://goo.gl/FTmYgf

Does the lid fall into the can when you get to the end?

Nope. If you back the opener up about 1/8 to 1/4 turn before you completely sever the lid then the lid will lift up nicely...still attached to the can. One nuisance to using this opener...there's a little return spring that sometimes struggles to completely return the open to the "ready to cut" position (or perhaps my opener needs a little oiling). Before attaching the opener to the can, just turn the handle about a quarter turn to help the return little spring do its job, then have at it. Best opener I've ever owned.
