Then there’s Abercrombie & Fitch (fashion shop, not the safari outfitters of the past) where crews were told to wear t-shirts, jeans and flip-flops to fly. One G5 captain objected, was fired and sued for wrongful termination. Casual can taken too far.

Hawaiian's B717 interisland pilots, ties are optional. Island Air (before they closed doors), the pilots never wore ties (they weren't even issued ties... or a hat... or blazer). Wasn't Virgin America tie-less as well prior to the Alaska merger?
My current airline policy: The tie shall be worn unless both of the following conditions are met: Locally reported temperature 90°F (32°C) or greater. No more than the top button is unbuttoned when the tie is removed.

In fact if you work for a big cargo operator you change into sweats or pajamas until TOD.
