Why Sleeveless Isn’t Smart in the Sky
Andrea shares a personal rule she’s followed for years—dress warmly, no matter how short the flight. Her mother passed down this wisdom, and experience has shown it’s more than just an old habit.
In emergencies—like having to evacuate using an inflatable slide—bare skin is at higher risk of injury.
Those emergency slides are not smooth and can cause burns, scrapes, or bruises. Covering your arms with a lightweight long-sleeve top offers added protection during unexpected situations.
Your clothing becomes your first line of defense, and keeping your skin covered helps reduce harm in high-stress scenarios.
What Not to Wear: Common Mistakes Travelers Make
Tight clothes, clunky accessories, and difficult shoes can turn your airport experience into a hassle.
Think twice about big belts, layered jewelry, and laced boots—security will likely ask you to remove them, which slows down the screening process and adds unnecessary stress.
Tight-fitting outfits are also a poor choice during flights. The pressurized cabin can cause slight swelling, making snug pants or tops feel uncomfortably tight.
This isn’t just about comfort—tight clothing may also reduce circulation and increase the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), especially on long-haul journeys.
Flight Attendant-Approved Outfits for Easy Travel
Andrea recommends prioritizing comfort, mobility, and circulation. Great travel outfits include loose-fitting pants like leggings, soft joggers, or flexible jeans.
Pair them with a breathable top or lightweight sweater for coverage and comfort.
Avoid anything that restricts movement or blood flow, and always consider layering—airplanes can get chilly quickly.
On longer flights, get up regularly to stretch and move around. Compression socks are another smart addition, especially for those with long travel times or who fly frequently.
