Hooters Airlines Cabin Attire
 
Washington Post did an inflight review of Hooters Air.
Article can be found here:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...2003Jun24.html

You may need to give a bit of info about where you live to access the site, but registration is free. Accompanying the article was a pelvic-level photograph of one of the cabin crew, who the article explains is not a trained flight attendant.

Sorry, i couldn't get the picture to paste here, but I am sure she had the undivided attemtion of the male passengers the entire flight.

Funny how the two guys behind her don't seem all that impressed!

Bah ...

Hooters air is for sissies ...

Real misogynists only fly www.ecstasky.com :E :E :E

Yep, they were going to show pictures of some UAL Pac Rim flight attendants but the camera broke...

In the U.S. female flight attendants can't be made to wear makeup or stay fit, that would be 'sexist'. Of course, now that the airlines are going Tango Uniform, some warmth has returned to the long haul passenger service in an effort to beg the pax to come back.

Here is one I think is taken by a PAX

As anyone who's been to a Hooters restaurant will know, they're just 'delightfully tacky but unrefined' restaurants which have some very pleasant young ladies as waitresses. Nothing smutty or X-rated, in fact families often eat at Hooters. OK - so the waitresses wear T-shirts and orange shorts, but they're not exactly Playboy bunnies!

Good luck to Hooters - what's wrong with a bit of fun in this boring politically correct world?

Boobs are Boobs
 
My Ex-wife worked for PSA operating at that time between LA and San Francisco. The Flight Attendants wore revealing Short-Shorts and low cut blouses. My Ex was a reservations specialist and she along with the other girls in the office was issued a badge that said, "PSA Pure, Sober and Available”. All of the female employees had to wear the badge.

So much for Political Correctness.

:rolleyes:

BEagle, you're right, nothing wrong in this day and age being served by a good looking girl in next to nothing and showing a lot of cleavage -delightfully tacky but unrefined definitely!! Beats some of the old crows where I work! Hooters delights in being NOT politically correct, and for some of us it's a breath of fresh air!
And I have to differ, some of the girls at the Augusta (GA) Hooters are good looking enough to be Bunnies!!
Good luck to the airline, hope it does very well.:ok:

MAJIC9 27th Jun 2003 12:19

Just to clarify, those are not flight attendants... just "hostesses"

Anyways.. here's more.. taken by a pax.. that pax being me ;)

Colonel Klink - yes, sorry, what I meant was the young ladies wear a 'beach theme' uniform which is not as revealing as the Playboy Bunny uniform! Certainly many of them have the .....err, physical attributes often associated with a Bunny - if one can say that in this day and age without the Fun Police frowning!

Back when we actually night-stopped for longer than minimum ground time, a visit to the nearest Hooters for a jug or two of suds and a bite to eat was always fun - the waitresses were always friendly and it was a very pleasant environment! Actually saw some USAF folk in flight suits having lunch in the Wichita Hooters once - and that was totally unremarkable, it seems. But then the PC brigade banned them from eating there in uniform...

Knold 27th Jun 2003 17:32

Jeez, which mountain did the one on the right come down from. I almost spilled my morning coffe here!

TopBunk 28th Jun 2003 00:08

... and there's a Hooters in Singapore. Unfortunately, undoubtedtly as attractive as the Singapore girls are, they don't usually come quite as well-equipped as Western girls!

VFE 28th Jun 2003 01:23

I thought Hooters was crap when I went in there. Lights too bright, the burdz tights were too thick and the atmosphere was naff. If you're gonna go and have a perv then do the job proper and go to a strip joint I say.

I think Hooters is simply cringeworthy more than anything risque or PC challenging....... mores the pity and I wouldn't go out my way to travel on it's airline either.

VFE.

Great looking gals, I hope they are as successful as their restaurant.
How long will it be before some old battle axe from the majors complains or files a lawsuit as to why she is being discriminated against due to being rejected a job.

Hypoxic Harry 28th Jun 2003 08:35

Disgusting!
 
I am so glad that we do not have an airline that follows this dis tasteful act in Australia. Sure the girls are attractive, but please get some class and respect for yourselves. And for the men that travel on this airline you should also get some respect for yourselves. My view is that the girls are on equal par with woman that work in strip joints, and the men are on equal par wuth the desperato's that visit them.

I would never support such a disgusting company in any way. No matter how much I loved flying.

capt cynical 28th Jun 2003 10:56

Gentlemen, I think you have all just been hit with a "HANDBAG" :O

Ralph the Bong 28th Jun 2003 16:12

So they've got big tits, big deal..Cheap thrills for morons. Why doesn't someone start an airline called "Fannies"...:ooh:

StressFree 28th Jun 2003 16:26

Hypoxic Harry,

Thank goodness you're on the other side of the world to me, keep it that way and get a life................

:rolleyes:

Hypoxic Harry 28th Jun 2003 18:11

Stressfree,

Ditto mate! I do have a life, a classy one that doesn't involve drooling all over woman dressed in hardley anything. It's just plain tacky, and deep down I am sure you realise that too.

Ralph the bong,

Loved your post, so true.

Earl 28th Jun 2003 18:33

Its a good thing that we all have different views and taste.
Could not imagine what the world would be like if we all liked the same thing.
