Build a 18650 battery bank and plug in a pinecil or ts100. A solder iron with a 18650 would be heavy and uncomfortable for soldering.
I would accept a bit of an awkward balance for being self-contained.
If you need to not have a cable, the butane ones would be a better fit.
Having used a butane iron before, I don't think it would. They don't have the temperature control modern digital irons can, and they're forbidden on flights.
