I boarded a Pan Am flight SYD-HNL-LAX many moons ago in a first class seat. After I was seated I began to read my ticket jacket (orange background). On the back of it was printed examples of acceptable dress code. I checked myself over and found that I did not fit any of the examples so I enquired of the Stewardess if it was OK. She looked at my ticket and appologized saying that I had been given the wrong ticket jacket which was only for use by Pan Am non-revs.

When I flew the concordes the dresscode was obviously not enforced.

Some in very short leather skirts with lap dogs, Some in funky hippie clothes while others in pin stripes and a eau de funeral parlor about them. I had one of the latter assigned a seat next to me and when he observed my tacky outdoor work sweater and jeans asked to have his seat moved.
