Definitely not super important during these times, but been doing some research lately. When will airlines, specifically regionals, allow facial hair? A well regulated rule like what Air Canada is doing would be awesome. Perhaps a maximum of half an inch with neatly groomed neck and cheek lines.

I wish more airlines would go the SWA/Virgin route with uniforms. It’s getting to the point where some of the uniform pieces look more like a Halloween costume than a uniform. No reason for us to be wearing trench coats straight out of WWII while the business class pax are wearing hard shell jackets that function better and look like they belong in this decade.

As for our uniforms, I think we are the ones looking less and less professional, not to mention severely outdated. Our stuff looks like things our grandparents wore and like you said, all the passengers in back have way more stylish looks going. I am not young or old and even I think it is time for a change.
