If it is long haul, I wear a tracksuit for two reasons. 1- I will probably spill food or drink on myself, and want to save my nice clothes 2- wearing pants on long haul tends to "bag out" the knees, again I want to save my good clothes for the destination.
Domestic- I try to dress smart.

I don't always have a (TF) jacket with me, but when I do, I put it on over my crappy t shirts on US domestic flights because the wire/plastic hangers ruin the structural integrity of the shoulders. I don't care if it's a 45 minute flight. If it's international long haul and they got those quality hangers, I ask the FA if I can hang the jacket up myself.

Track suits ? I would never wear that on a flight (or outside the house at all).
I have certain minimum standards but they have nothing to do with flying ( Eco/ Biz / First the same).
Ok I am a snob but since when is it acceptable to wear PJ pants outdoors/shopping/....?

I don't care what others wear, but I am usually travelling for work, in which case I wear something I could get away with wearing to work when I land, just in case my checked luggage is delayed. Even for personal travel, I will usually wear a travel blazer so I have lots of pockets for phone, papers, mifi, trail mix, charger, etc.

If you mean do I wear pants? Usually. That's about as dressy as I'm going to get. Loose fitting pants or sweat pants. T-shirt or loose polo.

I'm flying EK F this Friday. Like every time I fly, no matter what COS, I wear the same thing: Roots sweatpants, fluffy socks, t-shirt, and a university hoodie. Once on board, I'm in PJs within minutes.
I'm always the classiest guy at the EK bar

I sometimes end up in a suit, but only because I am either going to or coming from a meeting.
