If the airplane crashes you will be splashed few miles radius. I wouldn't worry about slippers - nobody's gonna know what human tissue they belonged to.

I mean . . you know . . pilot stuff blah blah blah 😂

The clothes that airlines require their employees and employees of other airlines to wear can vary from airline to airline and class you are flying. I know my husband and I got 2 first class seats from Hou to CUN. At the time he was a Delta Connection pilot. We were given the first class seats over an employee and travel companion because the travel companion’s outfit didn’t meet the requirements for first class.

@@_itzastro4931 I was not allowed to fly once because I wasn't wearing nylons back in the day :) I still like to dress nicely in case I'm moved to first class (my father is also a retired Delta pilot).

I became an Airline employee in 1970. I worked for three different airlines, and then eventually for two major travel agencies. Over 40 years of non revving. I love dressing up. I loved having my kids all dressed up with my son in a sports jacket beginning at age 18 months old through his early twenties. My daughter always in dresses. When the airline's relaxed the dress code, due to the general population dressing down so we would blend in, I didn't like it.

That’s so kind!! Thank you!

Yeah I always wear compression socks too 👍🏽

I'm a huge convert! I grabbed mine for an 18h flight and they were essential but now I wear every flight!

Honestly that's what I did when I planned out this capsule wardrobe and it was great to buy quality pieces. I spent a little more but the whole slow fashion thing (buying well made pieces and keeping them forever) is sitting really well with me.

There’s just nothing worse than being cold on an airplane!

And it's not even very expensive! Seriously LOVE and so glad you got it, too!

Got mine at Costco, even less expensive. They also carry "travel pants" by Eddie Bauer or under their private label, in crop and capri length, that are wonderful!

I'm a bit surprised her pilot husband did not tell her about safety in air travel clothing. One should wear only organic fabrics like cotton, wool, etc. If there is a fire, synthetic fabrics will weld to the skin and cannot be surgically removed as can organics. (Other tips: most accidents happen in landing or near runway--the plane breaks apart, those near the front are nearest the engines and the fracture point, so try to reserve seats in the rear of tbe plane. Get out as fast as possible--unbuckle yourself first and a dependent child only after you have the mobility to save both of you. The tiny flame or smoke puff you see up nearer tbe engines becomes an all-consuming fireball within mere SECONDS (remember the damaged oxygen containers on board)--if you don't risk broken bones by jumping ASAP to the tarmack, you will likely be incinerated. Except for securing your child, a crash landing is not the time to try to aid any of your fellow beings--altruism will almost surely cost you your life...

@@starrbowie8649 Wow!! This is just a bit too much....that's all I'm going to say....

@@TheMKgal لا حول ولا قوة الا بالله What in the world are you taking about!!!!!!?????

@@starrbowie8649 , this was not the time to discuss safety. Also, why would you assume that Jen’s pilot husband has not discussed safety with her? This was all about comfortable and reasonably priced clothing for travel. Starr, you went overboard!

@@SandwichLady If clothing for plane travel is the subject and the author says nothing about the relative safety and dangers of certain fibers/materials, I think it's unconscionable not to try to warn people. I can see your point with regard to the other safety tips being off-point, however. Decades ago, soon after a couple of horrible crashes on airfields, a mainstream newspaper ran an article with all the points I raised, so I have grouped them in my mind. Also, I haven't seen any of these points raised since then in any popular forum, so I thought I might as well mention them. If the writer's husband did inform her, why didn't she consider cautioning her readers? Comfort, attractiveness, and safety are not incompatible qualities in clothing. While I can see your point about the tips not all being directly on the subject, I am somewhat puzzled that you dismiss the tip about safe CLOTHING and that you can only fault me for taking the time to type out info that I clearly intend to help protect people with. Were you aware of the info I conveyed before reading my comment? Do you think it is commonpllace? If you can say "yes," your reaction makes more sense to me. I would be glad to know that many people are aware of these factors in plane travel--I just haven't seen it. If you would answer "no" to my two questions, I think you might benefit from considering why you emphasize what values motivate your objections, which include no acknowledgement whatsoever of my clear intention to possibly save lives.

I've never been in December but I'm sure it's GORGEOUS. Happy planning!

@@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge thank you Jen! No doubt it will be beautiful. :) I’m very much looking forward to the trip because I can finally visit my sister who is completing her masters program in Paris! By the way, I used the Eddie Bauer link but it didn’t seem to work (said site maintenance). Just so you know!

Rose, I do the same :) so handy for travel!

But nylon just isn’t cosy.

I travel with the same scarf!

It's so true!!

Charles, why would someone give a damn what outfit one had worn before? Just doesn’t matter in the scheme of things. Glad you agree. Extremely trivial, IMHO!

Hey, it could happen, Hannah!

Thanks so much, Melissa! Happy travels!

Thank you!

LOL yes. That's a thing. And the leggings under a dress thing I've done too - great call for FL!

@@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge a

You're right they would!!! THank you, Cyndi!

It's great to have a goal like that - it's motivating to save and the satisfaction when you can finally get it is a big deal. Hopefully you won't have to wait 30 years like I did!

I saw they were on sale for the anniversary sale and almost bought a different color. Love so much.

Nordstrom has many racks and different styles! I was there today and I bought packing cubes at your suggestion! Going to Europe for 2 weeks with a carry on. 😳

We should have some great weather in the way! Enjoy!

Yeah no I wouldn’t want to be cold and uncomfortable in an long flight and i wouldn’t wear any make up either, the airplane is there to bring you to your destination not having an chic hightea and gossiping and you probably wouldn’t dress all fancy in an bus or tram either

@@collettediva2001 I miss those days when flying used to be a classy way to travel. Too bad! Too many torn jeans ... wrinkled and grubby clothes where no one one cares how they look. Another sad end to an originally classy mode of travel. However you feel ... I miss the dressier type of air travel. When you're meeting someone at the airport that you havent seen for a while and you know you're looking good. Not like you just woke up from a long fitful sleep.

My mother had her hair styled and bought a beautiful outfit for our flight to NY in the 1960s. I got a pretty outfit too. Everyone was so classy back then. People are trashy nowadays.

@@pegatheetoo1437 hmm nah even if it’s for a few hours, I want to be comfortable, no way would I have to need to wear some pants suite. Flying may of been a upclass th8ng to be able to do back then but so glad it isn’t anymore.

@@triciacooper9317 no it’s actually called wanting to be comfortable and not having to live up to others ideal just to get on a flight. Unless a women has a business meeting after they land,they don’t want to deal w their hair.

I'm there at least once a month - it's big but there are plenty of signs to direct you! Just allow plenty of time to get to your gate and you'll be absolutely fine. Good luck!

Thank you, Claire!

Thank you, Ebony!

Yes great point, Nicole!

Because you have great taste!
