Reef flip flops on the plane?

[pinkfairy1684]

DH and I both have reef flip flops that have the bottle opener on the bottom. Can we wear these on the plane???

. . . bottle opener might be denied & tossed by TSA
. . . might be considered a shoe-prohibited-device
. . . contact your airline and ask

I wear my reef's with bottle openers on planes. You should be good, you just have to send them through the security scanners.

I wear mine often - three r/t flights since June with no issues including MCO to PHI last Tuesday!

The TSA has no restrictions on bottle openers or flip flops so I have no idea why either would be prohibited and fwiw its not the airline you need to confirm with but the TSA.

As always I recommend tsa.gov for the most up to date info on flying

bottle openers are fine in your carry-on, so they should be fine in your shoe. If the opener has a cork screw attached, that's a different story.

Why? Corkscrews are allowed as long as they don't have foil cutters attached.
