I’m never going to slam another airlines uniform until we get rid of the worst tie in the entire 121 world.

Honestly, I thought the brown jackets were the best part of the line up. Are there actual sunglasses, or are the eyes just shadowed by hat brims?


Not sure if that shade of blue is Periwinkle or whatever Pantone calls it, but it is just a little off, I think. On the other hand. we've had almost four decades of conservative blues, blacks, and greys for corporate fashion. It is possibly time that bolder colors stage a comeback. In ten years these AK styles could be the most conservative uniforms in aviation.

Good luck getting your Bostonians to match that brown-dark Brown fade.

Of course. I hear the main material of the next Spirit pilots uniforms will be bumble bee yellow. 🐝

For those that just blew their hot coffee ☕️ out their nose 👃 I apologize.

Looks like the Chiquitas are wearing blue suede kicks. Guy blue suede loafers might save an otherwise poor rag show.

The bees don’t like that idea either.

A United pilot talking about Spirit?

Why would you sink to that level?

I've heard a lot of talk of gray uniforms. The other day commuting through Miami, I think I saw them. Not joking. Gray...not dark...all gray pants, jackets, etc. I didn't even pay attention accept to think, what airline wears that crap? I think I saw our testers. Then the Captain I was flying with mentioned the gray rumor and I thought OH NO......That Alaska uni would be beautiful compared to the crap I saw in MIA.
