What do you consider to be appropriate dress in order to fly first class?

have First Class dress requirements.

My SIL would fly first class when her retired pilot friend would give her passes. She couldn't wear her usual shorts and t shirt atire.

The mother of a friend of mine worked for an airline and my friend would have to dress up to fly on her passes, regardless of first class vs coach, simply because she was using an employee's guest pass..

Genitals and female breast.

The law is pretty much the same in all 50.

So one would have to carry pasties to put on from time to time?

"§ 245.01 Exposure of a person. A person is guilty of exposure if he appears in a public place in such a manner that the private or intimate parts of his body are unclothed or exposed. For purposes of this section, the private or intimate parts of a female person shall include that portion of the breast which is below the top of the areola. This section shall not apply to the breastfeeding of infants or to any person entertaining or performing in a play, exhibition, show or entertainment."

We're not including breastfeeding here, that's a whole 'nother discussion.

And read your own link. It clearly states that courts have overturned the breast part.

Why does it bug you so much to be wrong? Get over it. You just are.

`should not be applied to the noncommercial, perhaps accidental, and certainly not lewd, exposure alleged'

A very specific incident.

Now, if you're a female, take off your top and try walking down Lexington Ave. I'll give you a block and a half before you're arrested for "lewd" behavior.

It's not that hard to figure out.

There are regular "topless demonstrations" in central park. they often extend out to various parts of the city. The court case is clear. Unless it is a commercial enterprise, or done in a "lewd" manner, female toplessness is quit legal.

And how come only female breasts? What about big, honking, saggy man breasts?

Not fair that some guy with bazoomies bigger than mine can swing 'em in the breeze and I can't...


:cry:

You will be happy for these if you have to run through burning fuel on the way off of the plane. I always dress for the emergency!

especially if it's a long flight.

As long as you wouldn't get arrested on the street for what you're wearing, you're good to go, in my opinion.

It's simply not worth what you have to endure any more.

I can drive anywhere that I need to be.

I've got everything I need here on this depression era dust-bowl sepia toned Kansas farm!


As long as I can hallucinate other places and take my little dog anyway.

Guess you could say sky-diving first class.
:-)

If I pay that much for a ticket, I want some entertainment value for my money.

neatly pressed clothing without holes or darns, combed hair and deodoorant.

and if you don't like it, find a different airline to give your business to.

Airline policy is extremely vague.

Now, what if you were at the airport, all ready for a well-deserved vacation, and somehow you manage to piss off the gate clerk.

He/she decides your dress isn't appropriate. Find a different airline?

You speak with their supervisor and have them show you which part of their policy, that you signed, that you are violating. Correct the situation, get on with your vacation and decide for yourself if you wish to give them your money in the future.
OR
you can do what most people do, bitch and moan while waiting for someone else to take care of the problem for you.

even when I was younger.

"Have them show you what part of their policy, that you signed, that you are violating." I would love to see someone try this at the gate.

You must not fly much.

Sorry, but sitting down only gets you ran over and having the balls to prevent it has NOTHING to do with what little ol Ayn said.

I only fly about 20 times a year, so no, I do not fly that much. But I can tell you that all three times I have asked to speak with a supe, I spoke with a supe. But then again, I don't FEAR some "evil" corporation and blame them for all my failings eithers.
I also use what people call commonsense, something that those seeking attention, who make up most incidents, lack.

I have never seen an airline post rules about appropriate attire in order to fly.

My god, we are talking about sitting in a plane. Who cares what someone is wearing???

Not getting involved in this one. Nope.

:hide:

:rofl:

I love DU!

Or maybe that would be for the flight attendant. :evilgrin:

I imagine the appropriate dress would be whatever the dress code requirement is of the airline being used.

:hi:

and I've seen business suits, name brand track suits, shorts as though there were a tennis court instead of just free drinks, and everything in between. I've even seen jeans and cowboy hats when the flight eventually went to Las Vegas.

Appropriate dress in first class is clean, clothed, and comfortable.

They need to focus more on appropriate behavior. First class seems to be home to the most loud drunks.

and I don't blame them these days. They aren't paid enough to deal with some of the stuff they witness regularly. I was on a flight last week and got to chatting with the FA, and he gave a couple of examples of what they have to deal with:

-People changing their babies on an empty seat, and then handing the dirty diaper to the FA. Classy.
-An elderly gentleman using the bathroom, leaving with feces on his hands, and proceeding to touch the back of every seat on the way back to his. :puke:

Because I fly a lot for business, I usually get to sit in First and people are in general well-behaved with the exception of those Las Vegas or Cancun flights. I always feel bad for FAs on flights to Orlando. It is a hellacious flight between the number of out-of-control kids and rare fliers.

I can't say that I disagree with the results.


:freak:

Can't speak for anyone else, though

While I believe that jogging suits are an abomination, there is nothing in United's contract that outlines appropriate dress. As someone who flies three weeks per month, i've seen all kinds of bad fashion. As long as someone is comfortable and bathes, who cares?

If I walk onto a plane wearing grapes on my head, a tutu, and rhinestone chaps, I should be able to without a problem for those prices.
besides, I hate clothing nazis.

It will save a lots of time getting through those pesky metal detectors.



p.s. I don't fly because I look terrible in a straw hat.

I look goofy with a jock strap on my head.

is no Richard Reid modified shoes, and no gun nuts with concealed weapons (unless you're a sky marshal)

there were a Nudist Airline?

Would someone in a suit and tie get booted out of First Class? Would he be thrown off the plane entirely?

A nice track suit should not be a problem. His track suit was probably more expensive than my best suit anyway.

No pantz

People wear everything between shorts and tee shirts to suits just like in steerage you just get a decent meal, an open bar, more room, and more attention.
