Hopefully before my subscription runs out, because I've finally decided not to renew it. It's just gone too far over to the hard left in the articles. It's gotten to the point where I have to explain, "I only read playboy for the pictures!"

And judging from her picture, she's not beautiful either.
They got cameras in the backs of plane seats now?
If she wants to wear that kind of clothing perhaps she should take her own airlines. Last I heard Southwest Airlines was a privately owned (not owned by the government).
This is a property rights issue.
That’s a mighty short skirt but the top is demure by today’s standards.
“I’ve seen women with skirts this short on planes more than once”
And that’s the point. I see worse than this all the time
I wonder if she was possibly traveling “non-rev” .. in other words on an employee pass of some sort...
I know when I worked for American Airlines anyone traveling on an employee pass had a dress code. One of the dress codes back then was women had to have hose on if they were traveling in a dress. I saw a woman denied boarding in Boston based on that .. she was in a very short dress and no hose. She was angry - but from the conversation she also worked at the Boston Airport and she knew the rules... I didn’t feel sorry for her. Rules are rules ...
NOW - if the girl in the post above was a paying passenger .. sleazy looks aside I think she should have been allowed to board.
Somehow I don’t think the whole story is being revealed.
We don't have property rights in the USA!! All property is used as the collective determines, regardless of so called ownership. Property "ownership" is a obsolete term, the correct term should be Property "stewardship".
If you own a restaurant your job is to provide a smoke free environment for employees and patrons.
I agree, what’s the big deal? It is not a way I would dress or want my kid to, but I don’t need some overzealous airline employee dictating my morality. Her lawyer had a great point on the Today show: If Paris Hilton had come on the plane dressed like that, she would have been shown to her seat and offered a drink. Enough said.
Sorry, I forgot, and I just wrote my check for lot rent(property taxes) this week!
I don’t think that I would go “crazy with jealousy and hostility” if this woman were on my flight. I’d just be disgusted at the general lack of good manners that is everywhere today, but very evident in the airports.
We look like a bunch of bums and women all look like tramps. This woman is looking for money and her mother is a damn disgrace.
However, this article isn't about those situations. Just because you've 'seen worse' doesn't negate the fact that this woman was likely flashing all over the place. It wouldn't have been out of line for the attendant to bring this to her attention and hand her a blanket.
I don’t remember saying it was a reason to get booted off the plane. I just made a remark.
The hell they can’t. Maybe not now; but in my day; I sure could and wouldn’t.
I think the problem started when the pilots grabbed the wrong throttles.
