Default Jumpseating appearance

So yes I did a search but couldn't find what I was looking for, I also read the article on APC but it was a little... misleading?

So the article says "business casual when upfront"... or am I just wrong I was under the impression that it was BC anytime jumpseating.

But what my real question is, when JSing is it expected to be clean shaven, even if you are sure you will be sitting in the cabin? For instance hopefully I'll be in Thailand for about a week... do I need to take my razor with me for the flight back? Or is some growth okay?

I know this is stupid, but it's the things I think about.

Clean shaven for jumpseating, always.

Always business casual, always clean shaven. You gave up being a hippy when you started this job.

Here's some advice, Thai girls don't wear makeup.

Again with these fashion police threads. I personally like the pajama look with smelly fast food in hand and I always ask to try on the Captain's hat when I ask permission to ride on his plane.

I have seen plenty of folks jumpseat with a three-day shave, myself included. If it's offline, I'd probably try to shave though.

Sounds like you are the one with an attitude. If the reg says no jeans, then NO jeans. Don't like it? Then don't jumpseat.
