Yeah. lucky you indeed! I worked for Delta Airlines sometime early 90´s and we had this rule that if we ever fly in our company´s plane, we should be properly dressed (office like). The men (even non-employee or companion) were required to wear coat and tie particularly if we were seated in the business class. The flight from Frankfurt had been ok, but the return flight from Miami to Europe (we had a vacay in the U.S. Virgin Islands) had been stressful. Hubby wore only a jacket but with a tie. The Supervisor told me, how come he wasn´t wearing an office coat and tie and said that it was not acceptable to wear a leisure jacket on the flight, I should have known this as a Delta employee. And she said "go downstairs and look for your checked-in luggage and get that coat or you´re not getting in that plane!" Oh my, thank God, Delta has it´s own separate area at the Airport. We found the luggage right away, opened it fast and got hubby´s coat. And we were able to fly then. Lols, I´ll never forget that experience.
