Riyadh Air Unveils Fashionable Employee Uniforms

Half the people in that video could be jailed in KSA for their "lifestyles."

I respect Douglas a lot for his experience and what he did in his previous roles. But keep it real...you just know that only he will call the uniforms "fashion". Everyone else with a detectable pulse will keep calling it what it is....a "uniform". (Just keeping it 100.) But I do like the look of it!

I guess it looks great if you’re a stick figure but let’s look at the reality first and then the functionality of it - looks a bit out there for working on a jet

And in some cases chopped off into small pieces and discarded like garbage.

But hey, it has excellent soft product in business class so we will fly.

Seriously @Ben at times you baffle me.
What's 'bold' about those tasteless blankets they are straping on their bodies? Couture? Serioulsy? That term has also been stretched to the max here that its already out of the window to the next continent!

They look dull and and completely uninspired.

Sigh.

Alitalia was the last great “fashionable” airline. Their flight crews from the 70’s to 2000’s always turned the most heads as they strutted through airports and crew hotels with pride.

These days, airlines like to market designer partnerships, but it’s all just mundane corporate mediocrity, mass produced with cheap and uncomfortable materials.

I like the 'Progress" being made there. people commenting negatively should appreciate the Suadi's efforts.

Very good point. We talk a lot about “responsible sourcing” nowadays in our supply chains and I truly believe this should extend to how we spend our money on transportation.
How anybody in their right mind would take their cash to a Saudi state owned airline is completely beyond me. How Lucky would even set foot into ANY plane bound for SA puzzles me.
Does anybody remember the BI boycott and public outcry over the (re-)introduction of Sharia law in Brunei in spring 2019?
THAT was a statement by the travel community, but maybe it was just fashionable at the time.
Today, we’d fly anything again if the soft product is nice and the price right.
Really?

They look kinda similar to the uniforms worn by commanders on the death star.

Well you people have no problems with flying El Al, a flag carrier airline of Israel, the nation built by kicking out the original residents, as well as discriminating/killing/prisoning Palestinians to this day, so why not?

I don't appreciate the Saudi's efforts to silence Jamal Khashoggi.

@AJO

I also don't appreciate the US's efforts to silence Julian Assange and Edward Snowden.

Cue the western virtue signalers that come out whenever Saudi/Gulf airlines are mentioned.
The same virtue signalers who have no problem flying El Al while Israel is actively ethnically cleansing Palestine with the support of the US, UK, Germany, Canada et al.

This western supremacy over the rest of the world is diabolical to say the least.

Americans talking about LGBTQIA+ rights when they’ve had more than 600 new pieces of anti-LGBTQIA+ legislation passed last year alone will always make me chuckle. And it isn’t much better in the UK.

Look in the mirror and realize you have no moral high ground.

They look like droids!!

Sisyphus, what an amazing criticism is this.

The hypocrites of the West, commonly found on OMAAT, love double standards.

I'm so glad that my community IRL isn't exposed to those horrible creatures.

Awww another whitey having their feewings huwt because a brown person dared to speak up and tell the truth?

Joking aside, where’s that vitriol you talk about? Truth hurts, deal with it.

I was going to say clone army but droids works too.

Attempting to seem modern, but comes off as cheap Star Trek knock offs.

Very good point, indeed.
The idiot who whines on how we spend our money on transportation.
How the idiot questions anybody in their right mind would take their cash to a Saudi state owned company.

Does this idiot realize Saudi petroleum is everywhere, the cars you drive, planes you fly, ever the roads and runways they're on.
What do you think Saudi Aramco do, another TikTok influencer?

These are not the droids you are looking for.

You cannot go from Hijab to Total Nudity overnight like some you are used to!

Are you one of those serving the Israeli Military instead of the USA. As noted by NY Times & WaPo, there are Hundreds if not Thousands in the US State & Defense Dept that do not agree with Israel doing ethnic cleansing.

I hope for the flight staff to be wearing clothes and for them to look neat and professional. Other than that I do not choose an airline based on what they wear and do not really care.

As an Italian, I love your comment. Viva l'Alitalia!
