Kyla Ebbert was asked to leave a Southwest Airlines flight from San Diego, Calif., to Tucson, Ariz., by a flight attendant, but she refused. The so-called objectionable attire included a white, tight-fitting shirt, a green cropped sweater, and a white, high-cut denim skirt.

Southwest Airlines states it stands by its request of the wardrobe adjustment policy.



Good for Southwest, While I personally dont have a problem with the way this girl dressed, I am glad to see that a company stand by a policy they have inacted and is inforcing it.

The fact is if this girl wants to dress like a whore, she should be treated like one. She claimed that she felt embarrassed because everyone was looking at her. Well no kidding sweetheart.

Mike, they show a picture of the woman and her outfit. You have to be kidding me. You see outfits like that during the summer all the time. I see nothing slutty about it.

The airline was wrong, plain and simple.

You right wing supposed moral majority need to get your heads out of your asses.

There's nothing wrong with that outfit.... really.

Well Mike, if you researched further into this story, it turns out Southwest Airlines doesn't have a dress code policy in their books.

This came down to a couple of employees deciding to play fashion police and embarrassed this woman. Once again, I see nothing wrong with the outfit she wore.

This reporter says it best in this article.

dats not slutty at all. Im on the girls side.

I think I need to be more clear as to why I sided with the Airline in this case.


First of all I definately dont think the woman's outfit was slutty, nor do I think that she dresses like a whore.

My point is that If a company makes a rule (which according the ABC article I post there was a rule; Others say there isnt not a rule about attire) but If a company makes a rule regarding something or another, It should be inforced and no exceptions should be made. Thats basically my theroy behind this.

Why don't the chicks that sit next to ME on planes look like this??!

Personally, i feel bad for the poor girl, that must have been awful.

Just your typical F/A on a power trip. Southwest really shouldn't be judging people, in the 70s their "Air Hostesses" wore hot pants and skanky tops. Ah, the good days of flying.

I have to side with Southwest on this one. An airline is a private company, therefore it reserves the right to deny business to anyone for any reason. If you don't like the fact that Southwest did that, simply choose to fly on another airline.
