Spirit Airlines Implements Stricter Dress Code and Tattoo Policy

Passengers may now be denied boarding or removed from flights for wearing revealing clothing or displaying offensive tattoos under updated guidelines.

  • Spirit Airlines updated its contract of carriage on January 22, 2025, to include detailed restrictions on attire and body art deemed inappropriate or offensive.
  • The policy specifies bans on see-through clothing, exposed private parts, and tattoos considered lewd, obscene, or offensive.
  • Passengers violating the dress code may be denied boarding, removed from flights, and will not be eligible for refunds.
  • The update follows past incidents, including two women removed from a flight in October 2024 for wearing crop tops, which went viral and drew public attention.
  • Critics highlight concerns about vague enforcement criteria, while Spirit aims to ensure a family-friendly environment and minimize ambiguity in passenger expectations.
