25 January 2025: Spirit Airlines has updated its dress code policy to prohibit passengers from flying if they are clothed in revealing or offensive attires. The dress code bars see-through clothing and offensive tattoos.
As of January 22, 2025, the airline has revised the contract of carriage stating that passengers can be denied boarding
On 22 January 2025, the airline’s contract of carriage states that the passengers can be denied boarding or removed from a flight if the passenger is “barefoot or inadequately clothed.” Additionally, if their clothing or body art is “lewd, obscene, or offensive in nature.”
This change comes after several incidents where passengers were asked to de-board from flights due to their clothing choices This included two women who were asked to de-board when flight attendants asked them to “cover-up”. for wearing crop tops. This happened last year in October 2024.
What does the dress code policy define?
The low-budget airline’s new policy defines “inadequately clothed” as wearing see-through clothing, not being adequately covered, or having exposed breasts, buttocks, or other private parts. Passengers who will removed from a flight due to their clothing or body art will not be entitled to a refund, according to the contract of carriage.
This updation in the policy is part of a larger move by the company in favor of the purpose of maintaining a welcoming environment for passengers. Other airlines also have similar policies in place to foster a welcoming environment for all passengers.
Some experts have noted that the policy may be subjective, and what one person considers offensive, another person may not, which could lead to inconsistent enforcement of the policy.
