What do you wear on a long flight?

Do you dress up for a flight somewhere? I've heard it's bad form to wear a tracksuit (like I do). Quite honestly if I'm flying for hours on end then everything I'm wearing is going to be elasticated.
I'm not going to sit there in a suit with high heels on.

Comfort!

Track bottoms, hoodie, t-shirt, baseball cap, sunglasses, wheelchair. I look like a complete bum, probably. Could not give a fuck unless someone’s paying me, and I never judge what others wear on flights - it’s a flight! We’re all just trying to survive the airport together 😂

Who told you it was bad form?

my mother in 1991?

You can be presentable and comfortable. I take no offence at anyone wearing a tracksuit on a plane. As long as you’re clean, not contagious, noisy or rude. Some people are getting off a plane and straight to a meeting/social/ whatever so may be dressed to do that.

Never heard of anyone dressing up that’s hilarious. Comfy as possible, and layers as sometimes flights get cold or hot. Warm socks to put on. I like to take clean underwear and socks to change into before arriving

trackies and t-shirt and a hoodie normally.. but i've only ever flown to Spain, Greece, and Turkey.. and i think Menorca.. so always went for comfort with a mind to how warm it would be there.

I go for comfort definitely. Elastic waist for sure...t -shirt/sweatshirt ☺️

Leggings, tee-shirt and jumper normally,

It used to be many years ago you might get upgraded if you looked smart, dont think thats a thing now.
