I'm in college and have been Preferred since my highschool days. (then Silver, now Gold)
FWIW, I always travel in slacks, dress shirt, and usually a sportcoat, whether in F or Y, which might belie my age.

Absolutely not. When I worked at US/HP I regularly worked with the parents of an 8-year old gold elite member. His mom lived in LAS and dad lived in LAX and dad would fly him to LAX every other weekend. He was entilted to the same upgrades and any other elite privilages that anyone else would have.

There is NO dress code for elite members other than common decency. The only dress codes are non-revenue passengers (employees and their families and sometimes travel agents). Non-revenue passengers under the age of 12 can't get an upgrade either, by the way.

My point exactly! We come from all walks, so the FA should not assume anything. If he/she has a question, he/she could ask privately.

After 6 pages, which is pretty ridiculous, let me lay this to rest. There is NO F/C dress code UNLESS you are an employee. The f/a was either wrong or thought the customer was an employee.

If you have the money or miles, you can bring your entire family of six kids and all dress in thongs. There is NOT and should NOT be a dress code.

AND, until F/C IS FIRST CLASS, NO employee should complain about how people dress.

Tsk, Tsk, Tsk. We'll have to arrange for you to have a dressing down (or should that be dressing up?) from that FA.
