Stainless Steel Cutlery 不锈钢餐具

Up in the sky - In the cabin

天空中 — 机舱内

Found an impressive thing during a recent flight.

最近在飞行中发现一个印象深刻的事项。

SilkAir actually provides stainless steel cutlery.

胜安航空竟然提供不锈钢餐具。

Once upon a time, stainless steel cutlery was a symbol of souvenirs that some flying passengers must collect after eating.

曾几何时，不锈钢餐具是某些飞行乘客用完餐后必收集的纪念品象征。

Since 9/11, major airlines have switched to plastic cutlery for safety reasons.

自从911事件后，各大航空均以安全理由而改用塑料餐具。

Although disposable plastic cutlery is relatively sanitary, it also creates a lot of waste that is difficult to recycle.

虽说一次性的塑料餐具也相对卫生，但也无形中制造了一大堆难以再循环的废物。

In the context of promoting environmental protection, it is good to see that airlines are using stainless steel cutlery that can be washed and reused.

在提倡环保的前提下，非常乐意见到航空公司重用能洗涤后再使用的不锈钢餐具。

P/S: In "吃盐比米多？" can see that only business class and above passengers can use stainless steel cutlery.

注：在《吃盐比米多？》中可以看到只有商务舱以上的乘客才能使用不锈钢餐具。
