American should just leave the uniform alone. It is a bad ass uniform and is perfect just the way it is. Put all those efforts in perhaps returning to full meal service on all flights or something or perhaps skimpier uniforms for the F/A's....hahahahahahah :D:rolleyes::cool:

I like the idea of starting from a clean slate. It helps to create unity.

I like AA's wings and hat badge, though.

Have you seen the F/As on both sides? There are some I don't want to see in a skimpier uniform. Speaking for the US side, mini skirts and varicose veins do not go together.

One of the most fundamental employee relations moves in any large corporate merger is to make the change have tangible, visible changes that touch every employee. You have to market the changes not just to the customers, but the front line workers, especially when you're not satisfied with the previous culture. This is usually done with uniforms, logos, signage, etc...

We could bring back meal service to coach, if your goal is to put us back into bankrutcy. The Big 3 airlines make a lot of money on bag fees and selling $8 meals. It's the reason most of us have a job ahead of the actual retirement wave.

Ok this is true. So they should change the navy color to solid black. Then they match the color on the stripes around the arms on the blazer to match the epaulets!!! Bingo....a sharp uniform!!! Easy.... ;)

May I repeat myself?

I hate metal wings. I hate pinning them on. When I flew the 757 the seatbelt harness would catch on them and knock one side off.

I like the silver sewn on wings.

I hate cauliflower cooked.
I like women 27-35.

CA's never let me do the PA during my short 777 FO stint.

"Welcome aboard, blah blah blah..........................now sit back, relax and enjoy our FA's cumulative 500+ years of inflight experience."

Jokes aside, most of the experienced ones handle problems in back very well.

To clarify, I don't date FA's.
I hunt at Whole Foods (best place to pick up women) er, uh Whole Paycheck.

(I wear my tennis clothes to WHole Foods-I've actually gotten 3 GF's out of there, Aisle 7 and at the Deli section)

Let me clarify. I like A A'S wings on a blue, single breasted blazer. No wings on shirts of any kind.

27? Really?;-)
