Passenger too sexy for Southwest Airlines (LUV): Miniskirt gets waitress tossed
Posted Sep 5th 2007 9:03PM by Sarah Gilbert
Filed under: Consumer experience, Scandals, Southwest Airlines (LUV)

Picture this: You arrive for your Southwest Airlines (NYSE: LUV) flight early. You manage to avoid packing excessive amounts of liquids in your carry-on baggage. You remember your ID, you wait until your seat is called, you stow your bags properly. You're even prepared to turn off your electronic devices and stow your tray table and put your seat in its upright and locked position when ... you're asked to leave the plane because you're showing a little too much leg.

Oh... there's more... she's a Hooters waitress!

:rofl:

4. I want to see the offending skirt as it looked when she was seated in the plane, the cloth pulled...
back by the friction with the seat, coming ever so close to revealing...

Ok. I just realized what a sad night I'm having staying up at worl.

6. Actually, it was two months ago
I was surprised to just hear about it tonight on the local Dallas-Ft. Worth news.

10. Yeah — on an open-ended, all-expenses-paid vacation in lovely Guantanamo
Because there's no way I could sit there with my tray table in its locked and upright position and watch the bullshit the airlines have been pulling since NineOneOne without saying something about it.

:grr:

23. Good thing she also wasn't showing cleavage...
She might be subject to rendition to some place in eastern Europe or Saudi Arabia... especially since it seems she could show quite a bit if she wanted.

12. Well...
Americans do have some hang ups about nudity... that is true.

My sister had to recruit European students for scenes involving nudity in one of her student films.

21. It's not just the US
There was a woman in Germany that was kicked off of a bus there because her cleavage supposedly distracted the driver.

It was a thread here on DU a month or two back.

A lot of weird airlines stories this week.

A Frontier airlines passenger exposed himself on a flight, too. :eyes:

18. she flew back the same day
on the same airline and said that the female flight attendent complimented her outfit. She couldn't believe the difference. There had to have been a passenger on the first flight with a puritain pole up his/her ass.

22. Hey...
1. It is the Lounge.

2. That wasn't very nice.

3. It was supposed to be funny. But, obviously, people didn't see the humor in it.

:eyes:

p.s., Thanks, btw, for topping off my morning blues.

34. Of course.
When they can get away with that then they can start telling us how to dress everywhere. And the only shops we'll need will be the online 'burqa's-R-US(A)'.
