Southwest. Shorts and sneakers/trainers?
high heels (punctures emergency slides)
pantyhose (synthetic melts on your leg)
skirts (not so good for running around in an emergency)

I just have to laugh and shake my head anytime I see the Easy Jet FA uniforms. I mean, seriously, how can you say Southwest when Easy Jet is out there? Ah, to each his own.

I agree that EVA Air have made a wise move to introduce a new uniform. When I used to work for a tour agency, and was at Brisbane airport every morning at 5am and 6am to meet the inbound flights, we used to dread the days when EVA Air flew into town as THOSE green uniforms at that early hour of the morning were just too much to take. Believer or not, EVA's old MD-11s were decked out in the same puke green colour - I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that the parent company is called Evergreen?
I think Pakistan Air has a nice uniform, and the CX boys look great in their purple vests

I think any of the LCC's carriers with their uniforms more suited to P.E. class leave a lot to be desired. Even though I am a slob myself, I like well dressed flights attendants, male and female.

[QUOTE=KezzaKawasaki]My co-worker, who used to be a CX FA, told me today that the KLM staff actually have to pay for their own uniforms[QUOTE]
I believe most if not all flight attendants have to buy their own uniforms.
