Personally, I don't have a problem with tattoo's...As a Captain of a VIP jet flying out of Saudi, my "principal" didn't either...In fact, my Cabin Chief (from Wales) for over 3 years had more than several, and sometime they showed...
It seems that this whole discussion involves frmale F/A's...how many times have you been a passenger and observed male F/A's with tats?
Bottom line, if that is the standard (no tats) to be employed, that's the way it is...
I don't agree and I think any Airline that won't consider a candidate because of "tats" could be missing out on a very valuable and dedicated employee...
Thank you Sue, (you know whow you are) for all of your years of "tattoed" service...
