Former flight attendant Barbara Bacilieri shares crucial air travel fashion advice, detailing how specific clothing choices can impact passenger safety. She highlights risks associated with high heels and revealing outfits during emergencies, where evacuations can lead to injuries such as burned skin. Bacilieri and aviation safety specialist Christine Negroni warn that common items like leggings may be made from materials that pose fire hazards in plane accidents. This advice serves to protect travelers from hidden dress codes and enhance overall safety during flights.
Airlines won't always tell you this, but there's a hidden dress code. Breaking it could get you denied boarding, delayed at security or worse - put in danger during an emergency.
Heels can pop the evacuation slide. Flight attendants are trained to remove high heels or thick boots during emergency evacuations... since they can puncture the inflatable slide.
Sure, they might look cute on Instagram, but during an evacuation, they're a recipe for burned thighs and scraped skin.
In the event of a plane fire, stretchy pants will either melt on your skin or cause serious burns.
