Transportation Department urges "dressing with respect" on flights. Will it improve air travel?
The U.S. Department of Transportation on Wednesday unveiled a campaign aimed at bringing more civility to air travel, urging Americans to dress "with respect" and remember simple courtesies like saying "please" and "thank you" to flight attendants. Travel experts say they're skeptical it will make much difference.
The U.S. Department of Transportation launched a campaign to restore civility in air travel, urging passengers to dress respectfully and practice basic courtesies. However, travel experts doubt the initiative will significantly impact the rise in unruly passenger incidents, attributing the issue to factors like alcohol, drugs, and mental health problems. The campaign, called 'The Golden Age of Travel Starts With You,' aims to encourage a nationwide conversation about restoring courtesy and class to air travel, but many believe it will have little practical effect.
