Southwest Calls Woman Out for Cleavage: Was the Airline Justified?

Airlines have a way of creeping into the news any time a passenger plays too much "Words With Friends" or allows his pants to sag a little too much. This week is no different. According to Jezebel, a woman was hassled on a 6 a.m. Southwest flight from Las Vegas to New York a few weeks ago because she was boasting too much boobage. You know... cleavage, baggage, breastage... She was showing too much of her twins. At least, that's what the airline said.

A woman going by the name Avital told Jezebel that she was told her outfit was "inappropriate" because it showed too much of her chest, but she didn't let that deter her. She boarded the plane anyway and, in her own words, "Lo and behold, the plane didn't fall out of the sky... My cleavage did not interfere with the plane's ability to function properly." Do you think Avital deserved to be called out by Southwest Airlines for having too much cleavage, or is her outfit perfectly acceptable?

    Southwest has a nasty record of this kind of behaviour. southwest nasty record behaviour
    Now, I'd send the fashion police after her in general, but I've seen lots more exposed on a plane.

    I refuse to fly Southwest, and I'm not alone.

    No we don't have to. But why fly with an airline that feels entitled to be the fashion police? Who are they to tell passengers what they can, or cannot, wear? Flying ain't what it used to be......and these guys have gone a bit too far for me. I've got $50 says if I showed up in their original attendants uniform they;d toss me for it being inappropriate!

    Thing is, on average, I've found Southwest to be the nicest airline. That have little publicized incidents like this once in awhile. But generally they are nice to their customers. Every other airline I've been on in the past five years has been rude as routine, as a matter of habit.

    Could Southwest get better? Sure, I think most companies can stand to improve in aspects. But I think Southwest gets an unfair overall picture. 98% of the time you fly with them its going to be great. 98% of the time you fly other airlines you're going to get rude employees.

    A buddy the other day left noise canceling headphones, expensive ones, on his last connecting flight. They were not long from take off and he didn't think he had time to get them and that the other plane was probably gone. The Captain got wind and ended up getting the guys headphones for him. Southwest.

    But that doesn't get a news article.

    All I'm saying is that a boycott could be an overreaction to a relatively small problem.

    I'm glad you enjoy your flights with them. I don't usually go to where they servi9ce so it's no great loss or me. I have, however, had my issues with them when I have flown with them. Try JetBlue someday!

    And see, I've never had an issue with them of any kind, nor have any of my friends (who tend to be dedicated JetBlue folk). See what anecdotal evidence gets yah? Enjoy your flights!
