Jokes on all of you that dry cleaned your jacket before putting it away! Guess it becomes invalid Nov 1.
Really think they'll have enough made by then?

”The hat remains a required uniform item, quickly identifying you as a professional Delta pilot to our customers and fellow employees.“


Added bonus….

Did you notice the angry mannequins? Look like they just got rerouted

My guess is they wouldn’t be paying for it unless the contract required it.

I'm a little disappointed. So much for the iconic Delta look. Now we get to choose if we want to look like an Emirates pilot or an Endeavor pilot. And I would have really preferred they chose one or the other, since the whole point of a uniform is to, you know, look uniform instead of having different variations floating around. It is what it is, it's not something I'm going to get worked up about, since they're paying for the new one anyway, I was just hoping for better. Now if we're doing Emirates can we at least have their smaller hat too?

I used to think the double breasted was outdated. But somehow I think the single breasted option they have presented looks worse… (And yes, I did the surveys)

I got a peak at the new pilot hat and it is awesome. Very comfortable and packable.

I vote that International Pilots get the double breasted, but with white PanAm hats. Us domestic guys can look like edv and skw with hats.

Exactly. Two different jacket types in the same crew will look ridiculous.

For international it will be 3 different when you include the black north face jacket.
