Thanks :D

The Emirates ladies....

closely followed by fishnet stocki....never mind....:E

I think i have see some of the Airforce 1 crew before and their uniform looks totally cool!

For the ladies I think the Singapore airlines uniform looks nice.

If you go back a few years, prior to the murder by - sorry merger with - BA the British Caledonian tartan was by far the best. Also the Lion Rampant logo on the aircraft stood out above, probably, all others. Remember we're talking BCal and not the recent 'imitation' that went on to become JMC.

jet2 girls for me baby, esp tania 2 car sick:ok:

From an informed back seaters point of view....
 

The ladies in Jet Airways have got it down pat......

Virgin uniform definately. V smart

Ooerr, did I type something against the rules with my link to the Hooter Air website regarding their uniforms? My post has disappeared.

Ozzy dear, try posting it on JB. This is a Forum for Pros. I didn't want to move the whole thread to JB because the rest definitely belongs here.

Hi,

I wonder why that happened :rolleyes: ;).

I'll try to spell it slowly for you BAe 146-100. Not all the members appreciate that kind of "humor" that definitely doesn't belong here.

May I quote Danny here on the same subject on another Forum?
We have JB for this, and you are welcome to post your jokes there.

Flyblue

Got it flyblue but I did not say anything about naked women and the fact is that Hooters Air and its uniforms is indeed news. It's a different airline with a different approach to CRM and thus the different uniforms reinforcing the brand of its restaurants and bars. So I think someone went over the top here on removing my initial post. I have seen many examples of posting on CC that has "stronger" humour than what I posted. Hey, but it's your gig, but why not have another think about it. No offence taken tho' :confused:

Ozzy

Ozzy,

I agree that that was indeed news. What didn't fit was the kind of "infantile" (to quote our Boss) remarks it generated, unfortunately. That's why it wasn't removed as soon as it was posted. And I didn't want to move the whole thread because it is of a CC interest.
If you want you can re-post but bearing in mind that it is a professional CC Forum and all forms of humor that might offend people should be avoided. Not all female CC appreciate to be considered sex objects as per the CC stereotype:*
As I said, we have JB for a good laugh.
Hope this answers your question :)

Regards,

Flyblue

Hi,

Sorry flyblue. :(

flyblue I hear you, understood. Did not mean to imply CC as SObjs. Those interested can do a Google to find the link if they want. Still, it is innovative!!

Ozzy

Ozzie, using t!ts to sell wares & services is as old as advertising itself. And us males have been falling for the trick at least since roman times.
Innovative? I think not! ;)

Ozzie what do you mean innovative?
Primitive is more like it! Do you realise that the primary recruitment requirement is to have (as Dave Barry would say) ehm, big bazongas? You really think that big knockers should be required for CC? What would people think if the Director of a Hospital only hired female Doctors with a DD size, or male Doctors with a nice butt? Don't you think it would be called discrimination?
When you apply to BA, they ask you not to send your picture, to avoid discrimination, and you're allowed to apply until the age of retirement. In US many airlines don't want to know your age, to avoid age discrimination. It happens whenever a profession is taken seriously.
If someone wanted to have me as a CC just because of my looks, I would definitely feel offended, because they are just an accessory to my person. It took me years of various kind of training and experience to get where I am. I am a professional Flight Attendant, and more than a pair of boobs.

I quite agree, yes cabin crew have to look tidy & professional as they are the 'face' of an airline but for people to go commenting on things like 'oh she has big boobs' and things like that is utterly stuped. Cabin Crew should be respected for who they are - to look after passinger safety first and not commmented on in this derogirity mannor.

My favourite uniform would be one where the bloody buttons don't fall off all the time!

whoa whoa!!!!!!!!!! If you look at my posts I NEVER said:

HON captcat you folks said that!!!! I was commenting on the UNIFORM darnit.

As for innovative - it is innovative for cabin crew - name another airline that permits t-shirts and shorts.

It is you folks that interpreted my post otherwise, so what does that say about you? :}

Ozzy

Ozzy,
I was not particularly referring to your post ! :)

But, they don't permit, you cannot do otherwise! ;)

Hi,

I agree with Ozzy :ok:.

Best uniform
 

I have to say the best uniform has to be the last ANSETT AUSTRALIA uniform.

Comments recieved from other airline crew and airport staff was amazing. It was stylish, smart, and even the international girls wore the hats. Well recieved everywhere. Unfortunately it wont be seen again.

bmi British Midland - simple, elegant and smart.

I would have to say the Virgin Blue uniform looks great !! But am afraid these old hips wouldnt look that good in it :O

Saw the new BA uniform a few weeks ago in LHR... apparently on trial, it looked great!

I dont know what Qantas has against us crew, but none of the QF Airlines' uniforms look good.

The Longahul/Shorthaul uniform is ugly, uncomfortable (hot) and not very flattering. The Aussie Airlines one is just wrong :yuk: :yuk: , and the Qantaslink one is just an uglier version of the QF one !!!

But at the end of the day, I'm paid to wear it..... as far as I am concerned, as long as they keep payin me I'll wear a monkey suit to work, if they tell me to ;)

Missleadfoot, have to agree with you, the last AN uniform was great, but what you said about it never been seen again... a friend of mine went to Skywest in WA after the collapse of AN, she says they still have that uniform, including the hats .... so it is still in the air :)

bmibaby has got to be the most glamorous.

We wear lovely T.Shirts and bright red puffa jackets!

Try and beat that for glamour!!: :hmm:

Hi,

Thanks for your replies. What do you think of the current British Airways uniform?

Regards
BAe 146-100

The new Air 2000 uniform for cabin crew just implemented is horrid! The girls wear a blouse that looks like a bad case of tie-die (not sure of the spelling), starts off turquoise/jade and descends down into pink (or is the other way round?). Skirts and jackets are pink.

But the male cabin crew have to wear bright pink shirts, although the navy suit is quite snazzy, just a shame the shirt lets it all down.

Other male staff in the First Choice group get to wear a turqouise/jade colour shirt which isn't too bad.

Who on earth decided to put male cc in bright pink???!!!!

Going Back about 22 years but Braniff had a real cool uniform it was all suede jackets ,waistcoats and trousers never knew how they kept it clean :confused: .With Regards to an earlier post Caledonian Airways had the same uniform as BCal and whilst not BCal it was worn to the same high standard .... Thanfully the JMC uniform is now gone ( mine in a bin bag at home :yuk: ) but feel very smart in my new Thomas Cook one :O

jmccrew

is there any chance you can enlighten me as to the differences between the uniforms? I have never flown on JMC or TCX (yet) but am guessing if the CC uniform of JMC was a bad as the aircraft livery its good its gone :ok:

Uniform
 

I saw Jet2 CC a few days ago - I think their uniform is very smart and nice, I like the scarf *thingie*.

Monarch looks nice, too.

Unlucky for me I don't work for any of them...:{

The old Virgin Atlantic female uniform was great.

When you saw the crew arriving at the airport en-masse, they looked sensational.

Sadly, I fear that the new Rocha garb doesn't quite have the same effect. That said the new chaps uniform is far better than the old grey gear.

Cheers,
Bob

PS - everyone's still sensational though :D

Fav Uniform
 

Well I really like our uniform at MYT, just not to keen on the waistcoat.

a few people have said bmi. Our uniform isn't bad but it's boring! I'm not too keen on the hats though! Still wearing a shirt and skirt suit is better than a long dress!

I like BA uniforms and their new ones are lovely! Including the hat but without Concorde I don't think they will be worn. I like Virgin's Rocha uniforms but not the old ones. Emirates uniform is nice as so is Aer Lingus. The new Monarch one is nice.

Don't like the old Air 2000 one, the Easyjet one or the old Airtours one. The Britannia one isn't that great either-what's up with those hats?

Tart with cart - Britannia haven't worn hats for years now, though if its the red berets you are referring to then yes, i agree, they were vile!

Look out for the new Britannia uniform being trialled over next few months - a vast improvement. I love it!!:ok:

Spot on Chicken Legs....


The new Britannia uniform is by far the nicest uniform I have seen for years. I would love to post a picture but i'm not sure of the legality of doing that...( remember when Air2000 pics were posted...they were removed).



Am I allowed to do so?

wouldn't risk it balboy, if i was u - sort of thing could bend them out of shape and generate a visit from corporate orcs and goblins if u get caught! :}

Has to be CityJet-tragic that they have to wear Air France-C'est la vie!!

Had to throw ten pence worth in here- Air 2000 uniform. SHOCKING pink, looked OK on the ladies, but I pitied the poor bloke in his shocking pink shirt.

Best ever was Malaysian Airlines about 5 or 6 years ago, fantastic. Or was it the dark skinned maidens inside who oozed sensuality...............must get myself togther now, work to do.
