The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) recently posted an article on the crew’s dress code and mentioned the case of Aero K’s uniform.
The Wall Street Journal said, “Even as politicians and business people of all genders began to favor pantsuits in the 1990s, and androgynous streetwear became the norm in the 2000s, airplanes were throwback zones of traditional gender roles and rigidly defined uniforms. Some airlines are now making moves toward inclusivity that are notable in the context of an industry that has sometimes lagged behind the times.”
Aero K Airlines explained their motive behind the genderless uniforms. They said, “The genderless uniform was built on consideration and respect to better perform various tasks that goes beyond issues of age or gender. Our sole aim was to fulfill the most important goal of passenger safety.”
Aero K aims to pursue the essence of aviation service, breaking away from the existing trend of overemphasizing feministic values in female flight attendants’ uniforms.
