I do, on the basis that my preference, Chanel No. 5, probably isn't a good idea.

Aren't you asking for a sexual harassment charge or a hot spalsh from the prep that is going on ?

Interesting. We all have our viewpoint on what common decency is or is not.To me,sitting in your seat and changing does not, as long as he was not making an exhibition of himself, or stripped naked with children present That said, neither my husband nor I would change at our seat on an aircraft. Were you in 1A?

Like many topics here, it is interesting to see other people's views. Having been a Nurse may well have influenced my perspective.

F sleeper suits - do you use them?
Half naked in F

I will confess to occasionally deciding another 20 minutes sleep on the way back from JFK was preferable to bothering to change on the plane and been 'that person' at immigration. I have subsequently seriously considered just getting in the car and driving (20 minutes) home but to date have thought better of it and changed in the arrivals lounge...

Generally in the bathroom, but I have once overslept and it was 20 minutes to landing when I woke. I changed back in my seat using the blanket strategically. I was in 2K or 3K on a 777.

First time I flew in BA F was also my first time being given PJs on a flight. I wouldn't have thought they'd be anywhere else where a normal person would change into them other than the bathroom. My dilemma was whether or not to keep my underwear on under the PJs. I usually sleep in PJs with no underwear (as it's not healthy), and in order to help me sleep I wondered if sleeping how I usually do (without underwear) would make it easier to sleep.

Perhaps that is a whole other thread...

Funny you should ask....some weirdo started such a thread years ago.

Do you keep your underwear on when wearing F jammies?

Back to the original topic of this thread: I have once had to change in my seat at the end of a flight, when it became pretty clear that there wouldn't be enough time for me to do it in the loo. A blanket can cover a multitude of sins, and I wasn't exactly getting naked.
If I am traveling in the winter from a cold country, I just wear thin pajama bottom under my jeans. The top is no problem to wear under either .

Once, on an AA 77W in F from LAX to LHR, I changed into PJs during boarding, hung my clothes in the closet, and was checking the movie list when we were informed there was a problem with the plane and we had to deplane. I grabbed my clothes on their hanger and my suitcase, and stood in the gate area with everyone else, in PJs, with my clothes hanger on my suitcase handle. A few FAs and GAs told me I looked cute and cozy. Luckily, we were able to get back on after an hour or so.

On QF it's much more effective, with the enormous black kangaroo emblazened across your chest once you change. Take the amenity kit too, and QF gives you slippers in F, and it helps that economy is directly behind you and plenty are always awake to notice.

I remember one of my first BA FIRSTs when a rather older gentleman, not seated in 1A, stood in the aisle and stripped down to his boxers and put on his pyjamas. I reckoned that he normally had a valet or two, and perhaps courtiers, with him when he undresses, so it was nothing unusual at all.

My rather more middle class sensibilities prevail, I'm afraid. I've always thought that although the FIRST or Club World cabins are appropriate places to sleep, they are not places for doing any number of other things that people do in their bedrooms.
