METAL CUTLERY is back on British Airways long haul flights after the Department forf Transport changed its list of banned items. Customers in first and club world cabins will be the first to get a chance to eat properly as stocks are returned from storage. The club Europe cabin (see left) is expected to be phased in towards the end of June. For the time being bmi will continue with what they call ”top quality plastic”, as their previous dining knives do not actually comply with the new regulations regarding the cutting edge. It has also been pointed out that not all aviation authorities have lifted the ban, including Australia. This will affect every carrier flying to ”Down Under”.
