I just pulled up the FOM to look at the uniform appearance section. I thought that the ALPA tie was approved, but it seems that only the pink tie and Christmas tie are approved. Oh well. If guys can wear cowboy boots and leave their hats at home now, I guess I can go buy an ALPA tie if they don’t change this. Both pilot and flight attendant responses have been almost exclusively negative. My guess is that just like the lottery bonus proposal that was a flop, this too will be sent back to he drawing board. There goes a few more million dollars down the drain.
