AirTran uniform

I'm starting class in May and was wondering what the cost of the uniforms were. Is the cost payroll deducted? Do you get a yearly uniform allowance?
Thanks.

Total cost for me was about $400
Payroll deduction is available
Perfect attendance "Day Dollars" can be allocated to your uniform account at the rate of $40.00 per month.

However, if you go with an outside vendor the cost cannot be payroll deducted. The up side is that Crew Outfitters (on Virginia Ave.) has much higher quality pants and jackets for about the same cost or a little less. I went with them. Shirts, hats, ties, etc. were bought from the company though.

Hopefully you can retrofit your blazer, buy pants from Kohls, and shirts from Pilothouse. Thats always an option.

JC,
If you didn't call out sick all the time you might have something in the 'ole uniform bank.

I'm surprised he hasn't posted one of Elton John yet.

About $500 through the company store.

1st of all, congrats--you're probably in class now, so sorry for the late post.

Some bought their hats at Abbott's on Virginia Ave (I swapped out the braid on hat #1), but I bought my one with the scrambled eggs on it from them. 404-768-5679 I haven't been to crew outfitters yet, but it's worth a shot.

Depending on where you worked previously, you may be able to use your old F/O hat, and just swap out the braid. If the wife hadn't cleaned the basement, I would have done the retrostripe on my blazer (which Abbotts does as well). Same with the pants/shirts--If that stuff is in good repair, save as much $ as you can.


Go Steelers!
