Plane attire …American Airlines has apologized after flight attendants asked a Houston doctor to “cover up” on a flight. Dr. Latisha “Tish” Rowe was wearing a romper on her recent flight from Jamaica to Miami when flight attendants pulled her aside and told her what she was wearing was “too distracting” and that she needed to cover up. According to Dr. Rowe, she was told if she did not have acceptable attire, she and her 8-year-old son would not be allowed to fly. She ended up having to wrap herself up in a blanket. Rowe tweeted about the incident and included a photo of what she was wearing. (People)
- What do you consider “appropriate” plane attire? What do you typically wear when flying?
- If you're flying to or from a vacation spot, especially a tropical one, isn't it more likely that people dress more casually or in resort or beach attire?
- Are we all just too casual when flying these days? Should we go back to the times when people actually dressed up for a flight? Or, is that ridiculous considering how cramped and uncomfortable most flights are?
