I am deadheding on my airline where I am required to wear uniform. Then I need to check in with a different airline, where I travel as a passenger to my final destination. My question: Is it normal to continue on the next flight wearing uniform or should I change?
Silly question I guess, but I dont care.

Well if you don't care; normally it is expected to remove your uniform and travel onwards in a smart, flesh coloured birthday suit.

Just carry a pullover in your bag. Wear that if required and fold up your uniform jacket so any wings or stripes are out of view.

Weather permitting, I only took the stripes and tie/wings off and folded my jacket inside out. I hate taking any unnessasary stuff/weight with me.

Just go in uniform, we do it all the time, do take rank off shirt though as you get the same question from the pax "shouldn't you be sitting up front haha". you may get a nicer seat and a free drink( if not free already). Also can go to front of passport control in uniform. But mainly if the sh@t hits the fan you can claim the glory and save the doomed airliner from certain death
