Spirit Airlines has revised its contract of carriage to enforce stricter dress code regulations effective January 22. Passengers will be denied boarding if they appear barefoot or inadequately clothed, with specific mention of clothing that is see-through or exposes private parts. This update follows various incidents where travelers faced backlash for their clothing choices, leading to evictions from flights. Such situations reflect ongoing challenges around fashion choices on airplanes, bringing to light broader issues of what constitutes appropriate attire while flying.
As of January 22, Spirit has updated its contract of carriage, declaring passengers shall not be permitted to board if they are barefoot or inadequately clothed.
Fashion choices have long been a problem for air travelers, as many have been singled out and denied boarding, and in some cases, gone viral for their situations.
Spirit previously had banned barefoot passengers and clothing deemed lewd, obscene or offensive in nature, but specified further in its update to the contract.
In 2019, American Airlines apologized to Latisha Rowe after she said she was humiliated and told she couldn't fly unless she covered up her strapless romper.
