Will Asian airlines allow female flight attendants to leave the make up and tight clothes at home?

By The Thaiger

 

 

Some regional airlines, principally AirAsia and Vietnam’s VietJet Air are being criticised for putting young female flight attendants in tight-fitting clothes or revealing outfits either on the job or in promotional videos.

 

The local online ‘outrage’ follows an announcement this week that Britain’s Virgin Atlantic has dropped a requirement that female flight attendants wear makeup. This sees Virgin join other major carriers that have eased their dress and grooming requirements after complaints about turning female employees into sex objects.

 

Just over a year ago, two Malaysian ruling party lawmakers chided the homegrown low-cost airlines AirAsia and Firefly for dressing their stewardesses in uniforms that are “too revealing”.

While missing the point that sex sells.

The stewardesses aren't forced to work for a particular airline.

If they were unhappy wearing the uniform they could seek to work elsewhere, although I'm sure they knew the policy when they accepted the position.

When I select an airline, it has to include good looking petite Asian flight attendants as I need eye-candy to soothe my nerves while inflight.

Agreed.

It's painful looking at the cows employed on Western Airlines.

Yes but which airline uses that uniform? 

I don't care so long as they don't degenerate into the geriatric hoes we have on western airlines. I remember a trolley dolly on Finnair violently kicking and swearing at a drinks trolley in the galley.

QANTAS have many  50 year + attendants or they used to anyway.

Too expensive to pension them off.

You missed the figure, who cares about the uniform ????

 

I bloody hope not !

If western feminist influences start make an impact in Asia it will be  sad day.

I don't think frumpy selfies will be popular!

Yes please, nude flying waitresses would be cool. Perhaps offer extras too.

Vietjet Airline comes close, the owner is a female billionaire:

"Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao, a mega-successful Vietnamese entrepreneur who is set to become one of the world's richest people, thanks to her brilliant idea of staffing an airline with bikini-clad babes."

Yea I miss the middle aged over weight unattractive cows that work as stewardess on the western airlines....

As well as the hostess at Thai, sourly faces over the hill aged ladies who are there just because the Thai workers union are keeping them there,  no wonder why they're losing money every year...

Asain airlines are much more sexy and polite

I don't understand the question.

 

Most women won't leave home without a proper make up or special clothes.

You think that the Malaysian lawmakers were missing the point rather than you, pfft.

The ones in the middle are quite worthy. Gawking at those would easily take 3-4h away from the boredom that flying is.

Absolutely. I am unanimous in that, pfft.

Yes, its sooooo complicated.  At present they must wear make up and tight uniforms, the question being will they be allowed not to wear these things.

 

 

Flying the flag for ladyboys: Thai airline takes on transgender flight attendants

Boss of PC Air hires transgender cabin crew and says he wants Thailand to give more rights to 'members of the third sex'

Her eyelashes, and her stockinged legs, are long enough to warrant a double-take from passengers on board. It may seem a form of harassment to others, but Thai flight attendant Punthakarn Sringern, 25, relishes the attention.

fine don't.  Just hire my grandmother and see what happens to your profit margin...I won't fly with them.  I pay so much for that ticket just like I pay for my beer....To see SEXY!  Not for drinking beer that tastes like urine, or stuffed in a crammed seat for hours.

Although they do say that beauty is in the eye of the beerholder...

....which makes this excerpt from the article rather baffling.

 

[Objectification of women is still an issue at U.S. carriers. Last year, a US flight attendant union said its survey indicated that nearly two-thirds of U.S. flight attendants suffered harassment during their careers, ranging from suggestive comments to groping.]

 

So if most flight attendants are getting harassed anyway, why not let them look good!

 

PSA was the airline that stands out in my mind for sexy uniforms.

Allow me to interrupt the regularly scheduled program to opine that this girl is particularly hot.  Ok, as you were.
