Tips for What NOT to Wear On An Airplane!

[@SydneyDiva]

I swear by my Superga Classics as well for the airport! They are the heaviest footwear I carry in my hand-carry so naturally I wear them on my feet. They go with every outfit I pack.

[@Suezbitton888]

I’m a fan of J Jill , classy and good quality . Also love Eddie Bauer , their outdoor clothing are awesome .

“I got bored and I’m not sure exactly what he said”…..just a spot on and lovely description on my married life. Going to be 50 years in 2023….survival! And we are flying 1st class to Vegas for a wing-ding blowout…can’t wait to get my travel outfit arranged!. Thanks for this vid!💕

[@grapesx2]

I love wearing compression socks on my flights! And, i also change into some kind of slippers for long haul flights…Thanks for your tips and links!

My father is a retired airline pilot. We always dressed nicely when we travelled standby when I was growing up because we were “representative of the airline”. I never quite got over that, and I’ve never been able to be “schleppy” when I travel. Good to see others with the same type of travel “uniform” 😎

[@_itzastro4931]

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.

[@cheryldixon5097]

@@_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).

[@suewolf3279]

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.

[@sinamark-com]

As an Asian man, I wear a Mandarin suit. Very comfortable. No ties required. I wear loafer shoes - not bedroom slippers. If airplane crashes and everyone survives, I don't want to be caught wearing bedroom slippers on the runway running away from the plane.

[@cheshirecat2641]

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.

[@TheMKgal]

LOVE this!! 👍🏼 I'm glad to see more people out there care about what they wear on the plane! I'm the same way, be comfortable but please wear appropriate things.

[@starrbowie8649]

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...

[@SandwichLady]

@@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!

[@starrbowie8649]

@@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.

[@rachelspollett3930]

I love that you included some scarves! A lightweight long scarf (like the first one you showed) is a must-have on all flights for me. I find that it helps so much with the draft from the vents.

I am just loving this channel and couldn’t agree more with the short shorts comment. They’re actually very rarely appropriate to wear anywhere!! And yet they’re so common

[@berenicem8750]

When travelling in the US during the summer, I tend to wear Old Navy stretch (running) leggings, tee & a Duluth Trading stretch, wick-away shirt (for warmth & comfort in the AC) & sneakers 😎

[@roseoctober393]

I love wearing my Lululemon Vinyasa scarf it’s saved me so many times. It’s an infinity scarf with snaps and it can open to a blanket, shawl etc and tied a bunch of ways. I always wear it on the plane and use it as a blanket and then on vacation it’s good for cold restaurants

[@amandaspangler59]

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

[@missmayflower]

But nylon just isn’t cosy.

[@AestheticsbyPatricia]

I travel with the same scarf!

[@lisagulley8051]

Loved everything! These are outfits I would wear and comfort is key. Hope you have a great trip!

[@cocostrayer6667]

I agree with everything Jen says about choosing flying outfits and want to add my $0.02. I pick tops and pants for the plane that will not easily show spills, drips, or crumbs. Because the airline blankets are usually dark & fuzzy, I also avoid clothes that are light-colored or lint magnets. Final tip for any flight longer than 4 hours: COMPRESSION SOCKS. The light pressure socks are comfortable. Your feet, ankles, and calves will feel better even if swelling is not an issue for you. If your feet and ankles tend to swell on long flights, then wear the next step higher in compression. You can wear compression socks under your regular socks, and then remove at the end of the flight if a warm weather destination.

[@roseedwards4526]

Yeah I always wear compression socks too 👍🏽

[@CookieDr007]

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

[@priscillasmith8972]

I also think that dressing nicely on a flight offers respect to the flight crew, not unlike dressing nicely to meet a friend for lunch. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mean that you should pull out a cocktail dress, but wearing dressed up casual. Looking like a bum doesn’t earn you any brownie points anywhere.

[@elizabethm2556]

Great tips!! For security checks, I wear footies over my socks or 2 socks. After the checks, I remove the footies, and store them in a sandwich bag. Remaining socks go back to my shoes.

[@JenniferPerryMyScraproom]

This is going to sound weird but when I have a long flight I like to wear black scrub pants and a long sleeve tee of some sort. Then I layer my favorite cardigan. I love scrub pants because they are very soft, roomy and easy to navigate in the teeny tiny loo AND super simple to care for when using a public laundry area - just wash, dry and go!

[@charliehuffman326]

I totally agree that when you find that unicorn outfit that is comfortable and stylish and "fits in" at your destination, you wear it all the time on the plane. The best part is that no one knows you wore it on your last plane ride too!

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

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!

My airplane outfit is always the same. A cotton tshirt dress. Leggings underneath it. A lightweight open cardigan. If it gets hot cardigan and leggings come off. If traveling to Orlando so much easier to take leggings off under a dress than change into shorts. Also I won’t wear anything that you have to take off by pulling over my head. I may or may not have elbowed my seat mate once trying to do that. And always small sneakers and socks!

I miss the air travel attire worn in the 60s. I loved that people dressed up a little more, but were still comfortable. I always thought that added to the mystique and elegance of flying. Nowadays, people wear grubby jeans and the airlines serve no food. It's sad what became of air travel.

[@collettediva2001]

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

Jen a very well done video. I am a retired aircraft mechanic on major airlines where you live. Unfortunately if there is a major issue where there is an evacuation if wearing shorts or a skirt and hose going down the slide will melt nylon or burn your legs. Also flip flops is a total no no. Also wear dark socks as going through TSA turn white socks nasty.i have flights to the Philippines so have 25 hour flights to Taiwan and change planes to Cebu. I wear compression socks as helps swelling. Going show my Filipina wife your video. She 6ft and slim 40yo. I do n8t ever tell what wear. She likes shorts and short skirts.

Many years ago I saw an episode of Oprah - don't remember everything, but the guest gave tips on flying.

My "go-tos" are a track suit or jeans, and layers of shirts with a jacket or a hooded sweatshirt.

Yeah the thing is you're far more likely to be involved in a fire in a car than an airplane so this advice feels very strange to me. Also, my husband is an actual airline pilot and they don't advise this even for them.

[@nancyhoskins197]

I grew up when men wore suits and women wore dresses, stockings and heels for travel. While societal norms have changed, I agree hygiene is an issue when someone has a sleeveless tee shirt and body odor, or a crop top, short shorts and flip flops, and with everything exposed. That being said, I appreciate your selections, except for the shoes. I have heard leather soled shoes are safest when traveling. Sharp objects, spills, and worse, plus emergencies they offer best protection. I always have a blazer, with pockets, light weight for warmers climates and heavier for cold. I always have a scarf. Yes, it's good for the cool breeze against my neck, but also for the seat backs and what they harbor. I don't wear jeans, preferring slacks with deep side seam pockets. I may be considered old fashioned, but I have been upgraded to first class and don't feel out of place.

It amazes me how many people wear shoes such as flip flops on a plane. If you have to evac that plane in a hurry, you really want closed toe shoes that will stay on your feet.

[@erinlikesacornishpasty4703]

I think people only started wearing flip flops after 9/11 because they were TOLD by travel gurus they would have to take their shoes off at TSA. I remember that shift and everyone I knew was suddenly buying flip flops for air travel specifically, even though they never wore them before. Maybe the trend is dying down, but TSA still requires you to remove your shoes, unless you wear flip flips, so idk 🤷‍♀️.

Makes me excited to start updating my wardrobe!

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

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.

If the flight is 4 hours or less, I can go for stretchy jeans, if I travel for work and am going directly to the office, then I am usually wearing a dress (work business appropriate) and if it more than 4 hours of travel (usually crossing the giant pond -Atlantic ocean-) I am wearing black or navy fabletic leggings with side pockets on the legs for passport of phone. I am a full figure /big chest girl so, if it a long flight, I go with sports bra as I usually wear underwire bra on the daily (previous daily when I actually went out into the world). Before becoming a mother, I would wear stretchy pants but dressier but, with small children, 10+ hour travel days are better in leggings because you are going to have something spilled on you or they will accidentally draw on you with markers. I guarantee it will happen

Do you know how the weather is in England and Ireland mid September through early October? My daughter is taking me with her to those countries and it would help to get an idea what to wear not only in the airplane (which this video helped tremendously) but also what to wear once we're there. Thank you!

As always, love this video. Could I ask what size you have in the Barefoot Dreams Cardigan? We look to be about the same shape and I find that all cardigans can fit differently on me in sizes. Thank you!

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

I wear a medium. Great question!

Coming to Atlanta next weekend, Oct 1 to 3, for Georgia Romance Writers Moonlight and Magnolias conference. I hope it's cooler than here in Charleston, SC. Great tips!
