Dress policy for non-rev & jump seating?

[BSeals71]

What airline would you say has the most strict dress policy for non-rev & jump seating?

 

[puddlejumper101]

swa : ) just kidding...

 

[slackass]

Policy is you must wear a dress!

Non Rev's and jumpseater are two different entity's. Many airlines allow non-revenue to wear jeans, tennis shoes, even shorts; all of which would NEVER be appropriate dress to jumpseat.

If your Flyer2000's avatar, really short shorts would be just fine!

I just had a Skybus flight attendant "jumpseat", actuall a cabin seat, on one of my flights the other day. He wore a black t-shirt with "Skybus" printed in orange on the front. He had wings pinned on the shirt.

I asked him if that was his uniform as I had never seen a Skybus flight attendant. He said it was as he was chuckling. Our j/s policy requires either business casual (or better) or to be in uniform.

I let him ride, however, I'm looking into this more as I feel it isn't professional at all. I know, what should I expect from Skybus? Professionalism would be the last thing.

I usually wear panties on top of my head and run around saying "hair pie, hair pie."

In all honesty - is this even a thread? Give me a f**king break. Common sense dude - business casual or your silly looking airline uniform, either one will suffice for all major carriers.

Common sense isn't so common

Common sense isn't so common

That is certainly the fault of the individual...if you can't figure out what to wear when jumpseating, you probably shouldn't be jumpseating in the first place.

I don't find it silly at all. The uniform should be worn proudly.

I actually was thinking when I wrote that a clown like instructordork would say something just to that effect. Ding, ding...we have a winner. Don't you have an airport starbucks to attend to? I'm sure the high school chicks will be quite impressed when you tell them you fly those sweet RJ's. They won't know the difference, you can BS 'em and tell them you fly the 777. You're probably one of those nerds that has B767 and B777 stickers all over your flightbag.

What a disgrace to our profession.

That's probably as close to any panties that you get.:laugh: :laugh: Seriuosly:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Ha, what profession is that? You mean your being an F/O at a disgrace like GoJet or me flying with CAL and flying professionally as well in the AF? Didn't you notice my quote was slightly tongue in cheek? Of course not...pay attention NOSA.

Hey at least it's panties - not boxers like something you'd peruse. Instructordude, your swordfight is waiting for you in aisle 3.

GoJet - jesus christ, what a f**king joke. I need to apologize to the rest of FI for even wasting the 2 brain bytes used to respond to this clown's post in the first place.

Concur. Unfortunately, there are a lot of people who have no idea what biz casual means. How hard is it to buy a decent pair of non-uniform pants, good shoes with matching belt, and a decent collared shirt? I cringe every time I see some yahoo who considers a Hawaiian shirt to be biz casual - get a polo shirt and at least try to look like a professional.

As for the uniform, unless you've got sweat dripping down your face from running to the plane, you should take the time to change out of uniform. And that doesn't mean simply removing the epaulets and tie.

Jeans? Tennis shoes? Shorts? Collarless t-shirt? NEVER!
