Sec. Duffy On How To Improve Air Travel: Stop Boarding Flights Like You Just Crawled Out Of Bed

Posted • November 21, 2025: Put a Shirt On, Animals: Sec. Duffy Wants Americans to Stop Boarding Flights Like They Crawled Out of Bed — Our Transportation Secretary, Sean Duffy, has a request of Americans this travel season. Be nice, help each other and dress up for your flight. —— Trump's Transportation Secretary on how to improve air travel: "People dress up like they're going to bed when they fly… We want to push people as we come into a really busy travel season, help people out, be in a good mood, dress up." —— He’s right. Now, this made some people mad. They like comfy clothes flying. I agree with Secretary Duffy. When people dress up, they behave better. It's the whole reason school uniforms work. Kids mostly behave better when they wearing spiffy clothes. —— Deathᐰncϟor 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦1ˢᵗ 🇺🇸 @deathanchor: “🎅 I'm feeling generous this season. I'll be at the airport handing out BK crowns 👑 and ❣️red bandanas.” https://video.twimg.com/tweet_video/G6UKU3ZXYAAx-Hl.mp4

Good plan to get through TSA, I suppose. —— TheMorningSpew2 @TheMorningSpew2: “What I’m Wearing To the Airport:” https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G6Ufy-FWcAAUQSK?format=jpg&name=medium —— I'm more of a Elphaba girlie, but I can dig it. People prefer to just be slovenly these days. https://video.twimg.com/tweet_video/G6SxCS1WcAAogoJ.mp4 —— Giancarlo Sopo @GiancarloSopo: “This is the way, @SecDuffy.” https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G6SBPEWWAAANO1c?format=jpg&name=small —— Swoon. —— Car🫶🏼❤️‍🔥🏈🇨🇦❤️‍🔥 @carlajamn: “Everybody needs to dress like Adam Sandler on their next flight … Or Joey from friends. 😊🤪” https://video.twimg.com/tweet_video/G6UhGyNasAANCOq.mp4 —— It's how you can keep your suitcase weight under fifty pounds.

Ginger @HandyGingerGal: “People stopped dressing civilly for air travel, when air travel became less civil. I'm not putting on my best dress for some fat union goon to grope me, force me to walk around in my socks, & then have them stuff me into 3sq ft of space for 8 hrs.” —— They also need to stop squishing people in such tight seats, honestly. —— Oilfield Rando @Oilfield_Rando: “A lot of people are crapping on this but I’d like to remind them that any decent bar or club institutes a dress code when they want to discourage Sprit Airlines incidents inside.” —— It would make the whole experience better for everyone if people took a shower, washed their clothes and wore business casual to fly. It doesn't hurt to have some basic standards of decorum. —— Nicole Saphier, MD @NBSaphierMD: “Amen!! I have been saying this for years. It’s time to get back some decorum with travel and the first step is to dress the part! ✈️✈️✈️ Thank you @SecDuffy”

Plus, people don't want to damage their fancy duds by getting in a knock down drag out with some loser on a plane. Win-win.
