Even though the TSA wants to pat down 4-year-olds (because they're potential terrorist threats) and use questionable radiation to render all passengers naked, Southwest apparently thinks a little cleavage on 100° day is unacceptable and worth preventing a passenger (who at that point has cleared security) from boarding a plane.
Interesting ... "first bag flies free" translates into "fashion police". I'm surprised condom guy got on without comment, though. Maybe they were too busy staring at her cleavage to notice him getting on?
That's ridiculous! The woman isn't wearing anything inappropriate, Southwest can't punish someone with bigger boobs wearing a comfortable low-cut dress in the summer!!!
This is why I'm afraid to fly -- I'm not afraid of plane crashes and terrorists, I'm afraid of TSA's groping and airlines refusing to let me board for petty, unanticipated reasons.

Do you think there should be a dress code for for flying as a passenger on a commercial airline?

I fly quite a bit, and it amazes me what some people wear. I always dress for safety when I fly...loose fitting, natural fiber clothing, rugged non-slip shoes. I see people in suits, sandals, shorts or heels and the like and think, "you are so screwed if this baby pancakes on the runway." LOL
If anything there should be a "bathing" code...I fly quite often, and there are some smelly people in this world!!!

Yeah, I think there should be some sort of dress code, but a very broad one. I think what that lady was wearing was fine though. There should be a dress code for the obvious things (because some people are stupid and need it spelled out for them). No g-strings and small lacy numbers. Nothing sheer without anything beneath them. Men should have to wear shirts and the like.
It was a hot day and everything was covered. I don't understand why this lady was given such a hard time.
When it comes to clothes if you can get service at a typical restaurant you should be able to fly. If they are going to be picky about cleavage they should also be picky about wearing tacky clothes. "No sir, you just may not fly with us today your tie is too tacky looking and may scare off some children."

I'd say there should be at least a bit. The other problem is that people need to come up with a standard rules, since it seems to be individuals for each airline screwing up, rather than a company policy. Unfortunately, it comes down to making it easy for people to make judgement calls
I feel like if all of the R rated bits are covered (like 25% of the breasts, the vulva, the penis, the testicles, and the rump) you should be fine to wear what you want. Now you might get chilly if you're wearing a one piece swimming suit, and I can understand being asked to put a blanket over yourself if someone else is bitching about it, but not being allowed onto your flight (especially in normal clothing!) is just wrong!
Wow. That really surprises me. I've flown SWA many times and have only experienced friendly, excellent service from them (I can't say the same for other airlines.) I agree with the person who said they should find something else to worry about. Nothing wrong with that woman's outfit, whatsoever!
I think this story is outrageous. If she's a paying customer, she should be able to board the plane (especially since she is not dressed like that nurse! ).
If it's not something that people would object to when you're walking on the street, I don't see how that's something the airline would need to censor...
