You likely want to be cozy while flying for hours at a time, but some airlines have restrictions on how far travelers can go to increase their comfort.
An annoying habit among high flyers may become a thing of the past as airlines consider clamping down on jet passengers trying to increase their comfort during long-haul flights.
In an effort to create a safe environment for all aboard, the airlines require everyone to"dress appropriately," which means"bare feet or offensive clothing aren’t allowed," according to American Airlines. For the"comfort and safety" of those on the carrier, Southwest Airlines notes that its staff may remove people if they are barefoot and above the age of 5, or without a disability that requires them to be barefoot.
Air Canada, Air France or even British Airways, to name a few, do not have any rules listed in the airlines' contract of carriage that allow for the removal of a passenger for being barefoot. Even though wearing socks is not necessarily required, there could be some fair reasons to keep your toes tucked away while on board.
