As a GenX’er I’m old enough to remember dressing up for flights. As a five or six year old I wore a button-down shirt, at least. By the time I was 8 or 9 I’d fly as an unaccompanied minor in a sport jacket. That was around the time Family Ties was airing, but I was no ‘Alex P. Keaton’ it was just how people dressed back then. That was still only a few years after deregulation, and before the rise of low cost carriers – it was the beginning of travel’s democratization.
I’m still usually in a button-down shirt when I’m traveling, but I’m usually wearing jeans on the plane (and changing into pajamas on long haul). That won’t put me on any best-dressed lists, but judging from the latest viral video it puts me probably in the top quartile.
While this would be just another day in a South Florida airport you can expect that American Airlines or Southwest would deny her boarding.
Now that is hilarious. I, as Gary, used to wear slacks, good shirt, jacket and tie when I flew as a teen to go to school overseas.
This is so different. Mind you, I met a lot of attractive young ladies in my attire back in the late 70’s….
How do I get on that flight?!
One of the great benefits of the internet is the ability to be famous for 15 minutes … or maybe 60 seconds these days. I find it very depressing that people are willing to make complete a**es of themselves in order to grab attention. But then, I’m a product of feminism and disdain the bimbos. They’re bringing women back into the dark ages.
She’s hot so I don’t mind this at all.
@ Gary — I dressed up to fly as of 2 years ago. Now, I wear shorts and polo, just like for work. My how things change…
I wear long pants and sleeves in case there’s an evacuation and jagged metal or a few flames.
This video must be fake. If someone tries to fly in a bikini, they are probably considerably overweight and are attempting to blind people with the sight.
@hey Judy: not sure how this bothers the feminist in you, it seems unrelated. And a true feminist wouldn’t call another woman a bimbo. If a male did that, it should blow the top off your head as a feminist. I find it a grab for attention. It worked. She is probably all over the internet now.
Seems like any picture or video of a fit half naked woman remotely connected to travel ends up with an article on this blog.
TSA will have a difficult time justifying an expanded search. Might be the thing to wear when SSSS shows on the boarding pass.

Jfc, hopefully ur parents didn’t make you sit w the riff raff in coach.
It’s classless, cheap, and tacky, however, it shows how ridiculous TSA, customs, non business class/First class airport experience, poor flight attendant performance, and woke society are so it works well. The excessive Covid policies, limits on fundamental freedoms, persecution of conservative/White/Christian groups, the war on drugs, Christians being arrested for having a conscience or going to church, cancel culture, and rap culture make America a joke. I find this humorous. If we read the Bible, walking this way isn’t a sin in itself while 90% of people commit actual mortal sins.
If this is the worst thing today, it’s a beautiful day.
@Jackass Waterson: your parents must have really been a mess to produce such a turd.
Anyone remember passengers clapping upon landing?
What’s wrong with Jackson? He/she/they seem to have a lot of anger and repressed shame. Telehealth options have been greatly expanded during the pandemic. There are even free mental health resources. Google them and get some help. You’ll feel better!
Hey Jackson Waterson, What limits on personal freedoms? If any of that means needing to wear a mask I have great news! First, that girl is rebelling against the freedom we don’t even talk about being taken away… PANTS! If we shouldn’t have to wear masks, we shouldn’t have to wear pants….Let me hear ya!
Also… Lev 13:45….. God said wear a mask. So there ya go, your religious persecution is done. Unless you’re calling God an a**hole.
He’s loyal to la familia of programs able to provide some aspirational awards and outsize value? Spirit’s program is not good for aspirational awards nor for outsized value. And that woman in the video is not outsized. Is she a reason to fly Spirit? Inquiring minds want to know.
@Tom. As a matter of fact, I did fly coach. Except for maybe two occasions when I got upgraded because one of the stewardesses was the niece of my Spanish teacher. As I was a regular traveller on the flight she recognized my school jacket and that’s how she found out her uncle taught me. Anyways, the biggest benefit was getting alcohol from her even though I was underage.
The good old days (1970’s) on Aer Lingus and British Airways.
Correction….
Should read “being served alcohol by her.”
Well, she’s wearing a mask, doesn’t appear to be drunk and isn’t throwing stanchions – this woman passes the minimum standard to travel these days. I can see her in a commercial promoting use of your phone for boarding when you run out of pockets to hold a paper boarding pass.
@Jackson Waterson
Hey Jack, if you think America is a joke because of something you don’t like then take you and your family to Europe and stay there. Your ancestors will be happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hooray!! More of this! The Bimbo factor is being revived in the good ol’ USA. There’s plenty of eye candy out there – if we can encourage it to show off!!
@ Stephen Morrissey
And Pan Am.
@Rog: ummmm, we don’t want him here thank you very much. We have our own versions of “idiot” here. He is the result of fanatic religious people going to the new place to practice their crazy beliefs.
@Airfarer
Thank you.
Also, Air Canada
While I am not condoning that type of dress in an airport she sure makes that bikini look good. Great eye candy! Lol
After smoking one with her in the first-class bathroom, I would’ve added another notch On the mile high club plaque.
Oh wait that was a Spirit flight, not interested in having to get penicillin injections.
Attention whores gotta fly too, and bloggers gotta give them the attention they desperately crave I guess.
Counting the mask, she’s wearing a three-piece suit, just lacking a place for her pocket watch.
Looks like a poor little rich girl craving attention her 60 hour work week mom and dad didn’t give her. Don’t know for sure but her bag looks like a name brand many people can’t splurge on. All you who would love to sit next to her-how would you feel if this were your daughter the men were discussing?
Gary needs to wear is speedo to the airport the next time he flies. Can not wait to see how many people film that. No offense, but it would be offensive to gays in speedos
…That lucky security wand guy…
