BYO fork? This 5-star airline may ask business-class passengers to bring their own cutlery

One airline may enforce a strict BYOC policy: Bring your own cutlery.

Hong Kong carrier Cathay Pacific — one of less than a dozen airlines rated five stars — gauged in a recent survey whether passengers would be willing to “bring your own cutlery set” aboard its aircraft.

According to Business Insider, the member survey was circulated in the airline’s “Cathay Lab” community of those who regularly travel business class. It comes amid a rise in sustainable practices across the aviation industry.

They were asked questions about whether they would recycle their empty water bottles themselves, give them to flight attendants or bring their own, but it is not clear if these ideas will be implemented aboard the aircraft.

Flying business, however, means bonus perks that accompany paying more for a ticket, like bigger seats, meal service and more.

As more jet-setters lament the lack of legroom and shrinking seats on passenger planes, some aircraft might be getting a facelift.

Italian Aerospace company Optimares debuted an innovative new aircraft seat that transforms into a bed for long-haul flights.

Instead of reclining like a traditional chair, an ottoman and leg rest are beneath the sofa bed and can be easily released to create a makeshift bed.

Despite its simplicity, the space-optimized extension converts the surface area of the seat to “25% greater than comparable high-end business class seats,” measuring 40 inches wide and 78 inches long, similar to a twin bed.

Called the “SoFab,” the novel plane seats also weigh less than standard seats already used in aircraft, meaning less fuel expenditure during flights.

The seats, however, have not been introduced into the design of any aircraft as of yet.
