That's pretty much the way I fly these days. I dress is loose fitting clothes--sweats if I'm going to colder climes, gym shorts and t-shirt for warmer climes, with slippers and a small travel bag.

People have been dressing down long before 9-11 ... flip flops, shorts and tank tops were around 25 years ago in airports. The original comment about airline terminals looking more like bus stations stands.

I remember when I was a kid, and flying was a huge event. My Dad wore a suit and my Mom was dressed up, including gloves, no less. Not nearly as comfortable as today, but a substantially classier view at the airport. Of course in those days, people dressed up to go to Las Vegas, as well (before it was kid friendly).
