A. Says it will soon be okay to board a plane with a knife. Heres Homeland Security correspondent bob orr. Reporter its a partial roll back of one of the core Aviation Security changes triggered by the 9 11 attacks. After al qaeda terrorists used box cutters to kill flight crews and hijack four jetliners, the u. S. Government banned all knives on planes. Over the last 12 years, millions of knives have been confiscated at Airport Security check points. Now the ban is being relaxed. Effective april 25, air travelers will be permitted to carry small pocket knives, provided the blades are no longer than 2. 36 inches and no wider than half an inch. Box cutters, larger knives and those with locking blades and molded grips will still be banned. Flight attendants warn even the smaller knives present a threat inside the passenger cabin. Stacey martin represents Southwest Airlines flight attendants. Theyre allowing these items to come through, and theyre putting the responsibility of the cabin completely on us even though they know coming through security are these items. Reporter but the Transportation Security Administration argues the change brings u. S. Regulations in line with International Safety rules, permitting small knives. In recent months, the t. S. A. Has made other adjustments aimed at streamlining screening without compromising security. For example, children 12 and under and seniors 75 and older can now leave their shoes on at check points. Now in addition to the small knives, passengers soon will also be able to carry some golf clubs, lacrosse sticks and ski boards aboard planes. However, i have to say, with reinforced cockpits and on some flights air marshals and armed pilots its hard to see how any of those tools could be used to commandeer an airplane.
