After the September 11th incident, Airlines are required to keep the curtains open at all times, so it makes sense to just remove them, rather than have them uselessly hang there.

On every other airline I've flown, United is the only one that has kept them open. On LH recently it was so annoying since every thirty or seconds when somebody opended it, they would chove it closed, and thlse little rings on the pole or whatever became very annoying, hour after hour.
