United Airlines is rewriting some of its rules surrounding flight attendants' appearance, loosening regulations on hair, makeup and tattoos to be more inclusive.
asking the airline to stop enforcing a gender-based uniform policy. The letter was sent on behalf of Alaska Airlines flight attendant Justin Wetherell, who is nonbinary.
"The uniform policy places a particularly heavy burden on nonbinary employees, but the uniform's policy also harms any flight attendant who does not fit Alaska Airlines' preferred image of either male or female," said Joshua Block, senior staff attorney with the ACLU's LGBTQ & HIV Project.
While older airlines reconsider their uniform policies, some newer airlines have opted for gender-neutral uniforms for crew from the outset -- including Aero K, a recently launched domestic South Korea carrier., Aero K said the uniforms were designed"with consideration and respect" with the goal of allowing flight attendants"to better perform various duties regardless of age and gender."Meanwhile, start-up airline PLAY also premiered gender-neutral uniforms.
