plastic knives back?
 

I flew a trip ONT-BOS over the last week -- out to Boston on Saturday and back yesterday, upgraded on all legs. Flying east, the knives at both lunch and dinner were metal, on last night's return flight (meal only on the BOS-MSP leg), the plastic knives were back. Is this a BOS thing, or has the security level risen resulting in safe knives.

It seems to be very mixed--sometimes plastic, sometimes metal. I never understood the "security" issue over the metal knives, anyway. Those things can't even cut cheesecake.

Yes, but if you rub them against the cloth of your seat maybe 2,000,000 times, you can get them wicked sharp.

You guys are not being serious about this. In the right hands these could be weapons of meal destruction. :D

What I find amazing is that when metal knives were taken off the planes they were put in the World Clubs :confused:

That's why for security reasons I stopped visiting Worldclubs :D .

Maybe the Irish were stealing them :D

But the Boston-Shannon flights were cancelled maybe 15 years ago, right? I know BOS-LGW ended in Fall 1995. I was scheduled on it for a T-giving trip. Got rebooked BOS-DTW-LGW-DTW-BOS and picked up a bump voucher and a night at an airport hotel at DTW on Sunday night.
