Spirit Airlines does not allow passengers with inappropriate clothing, tattoos

Spirit Airlines has updated its policy to include a stricter dress code for passengers.

The update, which went into effect Jan. 22, says a passenger can be denied boarding or removed from a flight because of offensive clothing or tattoos.

Additions to the contract now specify that passengers who are dressed inappropriately, such as wearing see-through clothing that exposes breasts, buttocks or other private parts, are subject to being grounded.

The contract also makes it clear that passengers may not be barefoot, which is also a policy of other airlines. Another addition to Spirit’s policy, the appearance of offensive tattoos, is not a common cause for removal.

The new policy comes after clothing violations have caused problems for some spiritual passengers.
