I've reached the point of my life where all I care about is being comfortable in all aspects. That obviously extends to clothing.

As for plane attire, if I'm going somewhere warm I wear golf shorts, sneakers and an untucked polo. If I'm going somewhere cold substitute lululemon black sweats for the shorts.

No need to wear uncomfortable clothes to sit in a chair taking a nap and playing on the ipad for several hours.

First it was no-check hockey. Now Lululemon. I'm starting to think you come here to pick up dudes.

Nobody is asking you to fly in a hair shirt. It's really not too much to ask a man to wear a jacket. All of the informality leads to toenail clipping and reclining into people's laps. I guarantee if the social standard on a plane was jackets for men and skirts/dresses for women many of the bad behaviors we see on planes would not exist.


There is absolutely no way you can guarantee that, nor can you make the assumption that it isn't "too much to ask" for a man to wear a jacket. Airline tickets cost too much (on average) to also have a soft requirement for a business casual dress code.


That's a silly argument. Lots of restaurants that cost a lot require a jacket.


It's a valid argument, because I also have the choice to not eat at those restaurants. It's also an entirely different industry and out of scope for this discussion.


The marketplace will respond to fill your needs. I'm sure George Lucas and Boilermaker Rick will create Slob Air.

The flip side to that coin is that if more people agreed with you, the market would obviously fill that void. The truth is nobody wants to pay higher prices just to be forced to dress like you're at a wedding.

I won't disagree with that if you're talking about giving up on giving a shit what the vast majority of people think of me. Reached that point a long time ago. You're talking to a guy who willingly wears velour sweatsedos and goes commando all winter long because nothing in the world feels better than velour on your balls.

I wear a suit 5 days a week, wearing one right now. Don't need to be wearing them in my personal life as well just to ride in a sky cab.

They really are the fanciest sweats you can ever get. A buddy of mine wore them to hockey one night and I asked him why he wore dress slacks to the game. When he told me they were sweat pants I was like damn I got to get in on that clever ruse. They're like $100 and they have to tailor them, but at a glance they pass for slacks which means you can get away with wearing them in a lot of situations where you probably shouldn't.

Heading to O'Hare shortly, just wearing cargo shorts and a long sleeve t-shirt with my Nikes. I showered today so at least
I won't smell too bad. Not a bigfan of flying in bad weather, just hoping for no delays.

Agreed. You could have showered MANY times and still you aren't able to wash that Wisconsin stench away.

Since when are you not allowed to bring your own alcohol?

I never heard that before just now.

A zip lock full of airplane bottles of booze is fine. Just don't get caught mixing your own drinks on the plane.

Just like my wife. Rules only apply to other people. Did you sneak the booze in in your swimming trunks?

Since this already got bumped, I will say that the Tom Bihn Tri Star is expensive but perfect for trips under 36 hours. Especially if you are on regional jets - Raleigh is the land of CRJ-900s so it is nice to avoid the stand and wait for your rollerbag scrum after every flight.

Jeans, either a golf shirt or a black thick long sleeve shirt depending on the weather, a black fleece vest and black slip on shoes appropriate for both a suit and a pair of jeans. Suit and dress shirt and a change of underwear in the Tri-Star outside compartment - I am a 3XLT and my suit jacket fits fine in there. (CHF it was a tossup between the Air Boss and the Tri Star, but I went with the latter due to the organization, I have a RedOxx CPA if I need a more open bag.)

What do we think about people traveling together who book two aisle seats next to each other?

I say poor etiquette. Sit next to each other if you know each other.

If you hate the person you’re traveling with so much that you’d rather share an arm rest with a stranger, I think it’s kosher. If you’re doing it because you can’t compromise on who gets aisle seat, everybody involved is an asshole.

When I flew with my father we took aisles across from each other all the time. Easier to get up and pee if the other person is napping.

LGA's new terminal B is the nicest in the country. Just blown away at what a great job they did. The only downside is that it is a much longer walk to the taxi lines.....

i want to find a lululemon knock off brand. their cuts are fantastic. the threads themselves they claim are superior but i havent noticed that. i just like the shapes. great for athletic builds. twice the price of what they should be though. its clearly part of their business model.
