Loved all suggestions. On another note I will add what you should wear coming from an infectious disease medical background. Closed toed shoes with sock, nylons. Airplane seats are given a quick vacuum and not routinely cleaned. Long pants. No shorts or short dresses. You do not know what sat in that seat before you. (Ie dirty diapers, urinary incontinence, menstrual accidents, gastrointestinal upsets. etc etc) Stay out of the back seat pocket. Do not put anything in or take out ie magazines. ( this area is usually filled with dirty diapers and used napkins removed by attendants after each flight. Bring your own shawl or blanket to cover self and back of your seat (head lice) Wear a clean outfit on your return flight. Not here to scare anyone, just sharing educational information that we usually don’t think about. Be safe in your travels.
I totally agree I do everything you mentioned and I also wipe down the seats, buckles and trays. On my next travel I will bring a light cushion to sit on. I hate fabric seats not just on planes so when in public I never sit on them also 😊😊
Just came back from a European trip and this is what worked for me: compression socks, tennies, linen trousers by Athleta, performance wool t-shirt, cotton sweater ( it was cool In Amsterdam that week) and performance-wear wool panties. All were so breathable and moisture wicking, which as a 62-yr-old is necessary for me. And for the first time ever, I didn’t have any coffee that day or on the flight and no alcohol because they are so dehydrating. I drank a lot of water! Flights were 13 hrs total and I felt great afterwards ( no bathroom issues either!).
I used to love flying in the 70's, everyone dressed up and even the in flight food was ( almost) edible lol. Sydney airport in the 70's to 80's was like watching a Parisian fashion show.
For safety reasons, you should wear shoes that you can run in and that will stay on your feet if you have to run away from the plane in the event of a crash. Also, your clothing should be natural fibers because synthetic fibers will melt onto your skin when exposed to extreme heat or flames.
@@BethDjalali I have an attractive navy blue tracksuit. I guess that's what you call it. Very comfortable pants, a jacket and I wear a T-shirt underneath. Nice wrinkle-free fabric not cheap but not really expensive. Frank and Eileen are ridiculously expensive for the average American women who fly coach. Other RUclips influencers are also pushing Frank and Eileen. I suspect they sponsor you. That is all well and good but not at all realistic for your viewers. People who can afford Frank and Eileen do not get their fashion advice from RUclips.
@@carolirvine7663if you love slow, sustainable fashion that’s Frank and Eileen. Buy fewer quality items and you just might be surprised that your wallet doesn’t open up nearly as often. Plus, our environment is spared.
Thank you for adding the perfume to the list! Artificial scents give me a raging headache in a minute, and I've been stuck on overseas flights next to women who bathe in that stuff. It's horrible.
I am much more bothered by the smell of smoke (cigarettes, marijuana) - cannot bear to sit next to someone who wreaks of smoke. I feel like I need to shower to get that stink off ( and my poor lungs - I feel like I'm a victim of second-hand smoke).
The last time I flew I wore a pair of flats that I had only worn twice without socks. They absolutely killed my feel and I ended up getting an infection in my heels to where I could hardly walk. I had to go to an Urgent Care. I will never wear new shoes again. I will wear sneakers with socks, it’s so important to wear very comfortable shoes, walking through airports is hard on your feel.
When traveling, you should consider what could happen in the unlikely event of an emergency. Shoes, such as sneakers, that will stay on your feet. You’ll run faster, and they will protect your feet in the event of broken glass or other items on the ground. Clothing should be cotton. Many blends will stick to your skin in the event of fire. I realize that a catastrophic event is rare, but I heard a NTSB investigator make this suggestion so I follow them when I fly.
I once had a plane get in late to Dallas. I barely had time to get to my connecting flight. To make my next plane I had to run with my carry-on luggage from one gate area to the farthest gate. It was stressful. But at least I was wearing sneakers. Wear something you can run in. Especially if you have a connecting flight.
I so appreciate your comments on scented stuff. I am one of those people that get migraines from scents. Sometimes it is overwhelming. In confined spaces it is appreciated that you lay off the perfumes and colognes..😊
Totally agree. My summer travel oufit: black flowy bamboo trousers with an adjustable elasticated waistband, a black bamboo loose-fitting tee, a white cotton long-sleeved shirt as a breathable layering piece, a large cashmere wrap, compression socks that, obviously, cover my ankles, and sneakers (white or black). In the winter, a similar outfit, but with leggings or tights underneath the trousers, a tee, a long-sleeved sweater or cardigan, the cashmere wrap, and a warm coat (hat and mittens too).
For ladies with long hair. Loose hair will matt badly after several hours between the seat and your back. Tie it up, but avoid making a knot or pony at the back. Unless it fits exactly into the nape of your neck it will poke your head forward and make your head loll to one side or the other. A neck tension migraine is not what you want! I part my hair down the back and put it in two plaits . I may look about 7 years old but I can travel comfortably.
I recently flew to palm beach and it was the first flight in ages where people were appropriately dressed. Comfortable but not sloppy or overtly sexy. Maybe the destination matters.
I like a light weight jacket with zipper pockets so when on the plane I can put things like my phone in my pocket. You can find matching jackets and pants. I also bring individually wrapped disinfecting wipes and keep one in my pocket.
Thank you for mentioning perfumes! Nothing worse than sneezing and having running eyes and nose from your neighbors perfume or cologne for a whole flight.
To my shock, the worst offender in this was a female flight attendant! I couldn’t believe that she could get away with that! I had a headache every time she went up and down the aisle
Most people do not understand how toxic fragrances are. Back in the 80's, I really struggled with perfumes that people close to me at work started wearing, and these fragrances made me sick. I had to have my desk moved. I started to do some research and what I found out was that any product that has the word "fragrance" in it means that there are a ton of chemicals in the product. I also found out that chemists discovered that if you put "phalates (sp?) into perfumes, it makes it last longer. The problem with that is that "phalates" are neurotoxins which are really bad for humans. Also, the fragrance industry is not covered, protected, or regulated by our government. I think they need to make fragrances and/or perfumes against the law in any confined places like work or an airplane.
I was really surprised you didn’t say avoid wearing flashy clothes and flashy jewelry- I think this is very important for safety reasons for women in particular. When traveling women are often separated from sources of support and protection. It’s smart to not draw unwanted attention. I will dress in a non descript way that causes me to blend in and not attract attention
I always wore clothes to the flight that I normally wear in everyday life. I never had any problems with that. I'm also not afraid to sit in a seat where someone else was previously sitting, because I often travel by public transport.
I love wearing a shapely, but comfy, cotton-knit midi dress when I travel, and slip-on woven leather sneakers. I carry a pair of knee-high socks and a cotton-knit blazer for if I get cold. My accessories are just a silk neck-scarf and some simple stud earrings that won’t bother me when I nap or get snagged. I’m not comfortable in trousers and don’t want to wear a short skirt that I have to pull down or worry about. Also, a maxi dress could drag on the restroom floor, the last thing I want. Usually I wear navy, but taupe or also white work fine. I’ve never had a clothing spill or spot on a plane, but I’ve never been in bad turbulence, either, except once when crossing the Cascades in a little 9-seater plane.
Thank you so much for mentioning fragrance as I am one of those people that is extremely allergic to fragrance. And the last time I was on a plane the person behind me waited till the door was closed to pull out her perfume and spray it in the air. Needless to say I had a massive allergic reaction. The pilot had to hold the flight for about 20 minutes to make sure I was ok. That was 10 years ago.
I wore a fleece jogging suit that was a little large in the waist on me and bagged in the crotch area, during inspection TSA grabbed me in my crotch a couple of times. She whispered to me “next time pull ur pants up” ! Lesson learned !😳😮
Black rib knit rayon knit top and black merino cardigan. Dressy black elastic waist yoga pants (bloating issues on long flights), supportive somewhat dressy runners in black leather for running to catch tight connections, thin black merino socks. For colour- my pink & black print silk scarf and a pink cashmere shawl scarf (doubles as a blanket or pillow). Black Baggalini crossbody purse which goes into my black Longchamps le Pliage bigger bag and black sunglasses. My Apple Watch & favourite pearl stud earrings complete the look. Everything breathes, stretches and coordinates. I can strip down or layer up as needed. Inside my larger Longchamps bag - a tiny folding umbrella in a vivid bright colour so anyone meeting me can see me in a crowd plus it protects from rain and sunshine. Right now it’s red but I am looking for a hot pink version.
The best advice I read is to wear clothes that you can move in. Sturdy foot wear and clothes that fit close to the body. In case of an emergency and you have to emergency exit the plane, you don't want shoes that might fall off, or clothes that will snag. Not a pretty thought, but it happens.
And leave the damn overhead bags behind. Often people are killed because they insist on blocking the aisles getting their bags when the plane is on fire and you literally have seconds to escape. Ive often said overhead bins should be locked during the flight.
Such sound advice for airplane travel! I appreciated the outfit suggestions. I especially like layers so I can handle the differences in temperature. 👍🏻❤️
I often travel from Boston to Tampa. Thank you, Beth, for pushing me into Talbots. Since RL stopped making athlesuire about 3 years ago, I was stuck. Haven has beautiful organic cotton pieces. Luv my Skechers sneaker mules. A cashmere cardigan in my tote. Lots of Lululemon hoodies and black leggings with white sneakers out there. There's also very little consideration for your fellow travelers. 😊
I have two knee replacements and that is the most stressful part of going through TSA. I’m in the booth and my purse is going down the conveyor belt with all my ID etc. There never is an employee at the booth!!
I know what you mean Beth, I have numerous metal staples inside me from my abdominal surgery. Also I have a titanium knee and hip when I walked through the security, bells rang I completely forgot all about that. A lady came up to me took me aside and scanned me so it was ok but next time I’ll know better. Thanks for all your videos I love your expertise ❤️❤️🇦🇺🐨🐨🇦🇺
I'm always in broken in sneakers, comfy joggers (Vuori) and light weight shirt or sweatshirt. Minimal jewelry; wedding ring and everyday cross pendant necklace. My hair is short so its easy and my makeup is always simple. I rarely bring a carry on. I travel light with a small cross body or fanny that consists of; ID, credit/debit card, hand sanitizer, chapstick, gum, earbuds, small ph stand (for watching movies), mini charger, eye drops, 2-3 tissues and a small container for my tylenol and allergy meds. I breeze through TSA pre-check and get on and off the plane easy. I dont like baggage or discombobulation which I see tons of travelers experiencing. Anyhow thanks for sharing! I agree with all your suggestions. 😊
Easy on - easy off footwear either with socks or sockettes. On that note; great tips what not to wear if a female and will also add IF travelling with a male that might be wearing suspenders which my husband often does, they will set off the metal dectectors for sure. Lesson learned!
I wear a long skirt with elastic band with a shirt and a cardigan, if not skirt a non fussy dress...thank you J Jill. With a shirt or dress when you go to the loo you don't have to worry about getting your pants in urine..also a wonderful cashmere large throw scarf .. and always leather shoes!!! No rubber!
I was on plane last month where a man was wearing high visibility clothes that reaked of engine oil. I could smell him 3 rows away. He shouldn’t have been allowed on the plane. Imagine what the seat was like when he’d left it.
I just came back from South America, I saw so many high heels, so many!!! These poor women were suffering on the immigration line. Why do that? I don't get it.
@kimberlyperrotis8962 Central and South America have many countries and people. Culture isn’t the same. People inside each country are different. Please, don’t generalize.
Socks to keep your feet warm, comfy shoes! A sweater and my own pillow! On international flights they give you a blankie and small pillow but most democratic flights ( coach) don’t give you a thing! Good advice! Thank you!
Sharing a tip heard fro a Miracle on the Hudson passenger...always wear close-toed shoes that tie. Other types may not stay on your feet in an emergency situation he was in...having to walk onto a plane's slippery wing.
I wear a loose fitting cotton dress at calf length, looser cotton bras , socks with my sandals for 6 hours or more flight, Because, I tend to swell up during long flight due to cabin air compression. I have been doing this kind of dressing for my longer flights in the past 20 years with no problem .
Thanks I so agree with you .I traveled lately and it was a long flight with3 stop overs .and when I reached my destination my friend said you look so fresh .yes thanks to the outfit I had on.and I am73 years with a mettle from my knee to my mid shin bone .
You are definitely correct about the simple yet polished look, a winner every time! Love your make up. Any advice for foundation and under eye coverage? Thanks 😊
Usually on flights my hands swell and I have trouble removing my rings and I feel as if my blood isn’t circulating! so I never wear rings while on the plane! 😊
Perfume gives me migraines and sometimes nausea! I’m very sensitive to lots of odors. The worse being garlic breath. I never eat Italian the night before I travel and I wish people didn’t wear perfume.
Nice tips! My shoes must allow for socks and be very easy slip-on's because they will make you take them off and I want to be able to get them back on fast. I do not want bare foot on airport floors which is why I have to have socks. The other thing is I carry a laptop and it must be able to come out of the bag quickly so it can go thru security without holding up the line. TFS
I once stood in a security line behind a woman who was wearing nothing but a skin tight white bodysuit. While fully covered, nothing was left to the imagination. Airport people watching is second to none. Wearing colored tights with a shirt that doesn’t cover your bum is also a look others cannot unsee. 😂
Great advice. I will be a first time (long haul) traveller in December this year, so these tips are going to come in very handy. (May I just say how lovely your hair is, the style is phenomenal. 🤩)
I take short footie socks to slip on over mine to walk on public floors, then slip them in a baggie to save for return flight. Men's cologne smells stronger than women's. I carry a respirator mask that I put on as soon as I sit in my seat. I tell the people beside me and stewards ", this is for allergies.i am allergic to all this cologne". They relax and I breathe like a dream until plane lands.i also never take Ny food or drink from anyone. Airline personnel dont wash their hands between giving drinks and gathering used cups/trash. Think about that.
I once boarded a plane and a woman across the isle who was probably in her 30s took out a bottle of nail polish and began painting her nails! The flight attendant flew down the aisle and told her to stop. The woman could not understand why she was asked to stop.
None of the pedal pushers. Bad length on me! Ankle scar, plus swelling. I Luke the White oversized blouse, black cardigan, black, full length, straight leg jeans, & U call them gym shoes. My late hubby referred to them as tennis shoes.
Just wondering not sure if you are really tall but aren't those chinos a little short? They are not an ankle pant or a capri kind of hovering in an awkward spot on your leg.
Loved all suggestions. On another note I will add what you should wear coming from an infectious disease medical background.
Closed toed shoes with sock, nylons. Airplane seats are given a quick vacuum and not routinely cleaned.
Long pants. No shorts or short dresses. You do not know what sat in that seat before you. (Ie dirty diapers, urinary incontinence, menstrual accidents, gastrointestinal upsets. etc etc)
Stay out of the back seat pocket. Do not put anything in or take out ie magazines. ( this area is usually filled with dirty diapers and used napkins removed by attendants after each flight.
Bring your own shawl or blanket to cover self and back of your seat (head lice)
Wear a clean outfit on your return flight.
Not here to scare anyone, just sharing educational information that we usually don’t think about. Be safe in your travels.
Thanks for sharing!
So agree my doc to me to cleaning wipe s then we clean everything ever bring sock we can throw away after walking through tsa and put clean one
I mean told me so sorry on the spelling I am severely deylixca
I totally agree I do everything you mentioned and I also wipe down the seats, buckles and trays. On my next travel I will bring a light cushion to sit on. I hate fabric seats not just on planes so when in public I never sit on them also 😊😊
Yikes! 😱 this has been the MOST helpful recommendations I’ve read! Thank you!
I like to wear socks with my shoes so I don’t have to walk on that dirty floor with bare feet at security. Thanks for the tips Beth!
Socks are always a good idea!
I generally wear compression socks on longer flights!
I asked once how often they cleaned the floor and was told to keep moving. Guess that answers that, so I always wear socks!
So shoes have to come off? I would walk on the outside edge of my foot, like in a changing room 😬
Just came back from a European trip and this is what worked for me: compression socks, tennies, linen trousers by Athleta, performance wool t-shirt, cotton sweater ( it was cool In Amsterdam that week) and performance-wear wool panties. All were so breathable and moisture wicking, which as a 62-yr-old is necessary for me. And for the first time ever, I didn’t have any coffee that day or on the flight and no alcohol because they are so dehydrating. I drank a lot of water! Flights were 13 hrs total and I felt great afterwards ( no bathroom issues either!).
Where do you get wool panties? Thank you ! 🌷
A good size scarf can do wonders. I roll it up in my bag. It helps so much to put over shoulders for warmth. Looks great with any outfit
Great tip!
Yes!
Yup! I always travel with my large pashmina. So many uses from pillow to light blanket.
I used to love flying in the 70's, everyone dressed up and even the in flight food was ( almost) edible lol. Sydney airport in the 70's to 80's was like watching a Parisian fashion show.
The best fashion show I've ever seen was on a flight from London to Paris. What a surprise!
In 1969 a young me and my husband flew to Europe, he in a suit, me in a dress and heels. Airline travel was a big deal back then!
For safety reasons, you should wear shoes that you can run in and that will stay on your feet if you have to run away from the plane in the event of a crash. Also, your clothing should be natural fibers because synthetic fibers will melt onto your skin when exposed to extreme heat or flames.
True. I’d add to that, don’t use hairspray - in a fire it will ignite!
Smart!
I think you should always wear closed -toed shoes.
Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for adding the perfume to the list! Artificial scents give me a raging headache in a minute, and I've been stuck on overseas flights next to women who bathe in that stuff. It's horrible.

Migraine trigger! Thank you for mentioning
I am much more bothered by the smell of smoke (cigarettes, marijuana) - cannot bear to sit next to someone who wreaks of smoke. I feel like I need to shower to get that stink off ( and my poor lungs - I feel like I'm a victim of second-hand smoke).
The worst smell I have ever had to deal with on a flight (and bus) is body odour. I wish people would shower and use a deodorant before travelling
Thank you because omg perfume and cologne and even laundry detergent smells trigger an asthmatic attack.

@@cathyhanson5885 definitely wear a tried and true pair of sneakers or loafers!

When traveling, you should consider what could happen in the unlikely event of an emergency. Shoes, such as sneakers, that will stay on your feet. You’ll run faster, and they will protect your feet in the event of broken glass or other items on the ground. Clothing should be cotton. Many blends will stick to your skin in the event of fire.

That’s encouraging!
I’ve been on many flights in PBI & I see lot pajamas
You said it mindful thoughtful and respectful sadly this has been lost.
I always wear tennis shoes or a flat bootie! NEVER, NEVER, opened toes or sandals on a plane or in an airport! GERM CITY!
Tennis shoes and a hoodie are my go to’s. Pull up that hood before resting my head on the seat back.
It is also important to consider the cultural in the country you are in or traveling to. Saudi Arabia requires modesty.
Thanks for the reminder.

Another interesting option... like you say "midi" is the deal.. otherwise cleaning stairs, +as your hands are full with bags/ rolli..
I don’t worry about myself wearing white pants… I worry about the people sitting on either side of me, and sometimes they are pretty disgusting.
I found a Canadian brand Unbound Merino which does comfortable and stylish travel clothes.
Those yellow sneakers are so cute!
Right?!

I wore some comfy baggie knit pants and they definitely checked me thoroughly...
Black rib knit rayon knit top and black merino cardigan. Dressy black elastic waist yoga pants (bloating issues on long flights), supportive somewhat dressy runners in black leather for running to catch tight connections, thin black merino socks.
For colour- my pink & black print silk scarf and a pink cashmere shawl scarf (doubles as a blanket or pillow).
Black Baggalini crossbody purse which goes into my black Longchamps le Pliage bigger bag and black sunglasses. My Apple Watch & favourite pearl stud earrings complete the look.

All of the names you dropped created a tripping hazard!😂😅🤣
As a retired RN I highly recommend Dansko loafers. I’ve worn them for years. They are waterproof and comfortable for 12 hours on your feet.
Thanks for the suggestion!
I thought I’d mention jumpsuits to your list of don’t wear for travel. Airplane bathrooms are difficult enough
The best advice I read is to wear clothes that you can move in. Sturdy foot wear and clothes that fit close to the body. In case of an emergency and you have to emergency exit the plane, you don't want shoes that might fall off, or clothes that will snag. Not a pretty thought, but it happens.
And leave the damn overhead bags behind. Often people are killed because they insist on blocking the aisles getting their bags when the plane is on fire and you literally have seconds to escape. Ive often said overhead bins should be locked during the flight.
I avoid all this by not traveling. Just too much stress.
Same here, for decades - until I realized life is short, and I must visit a whole bunch of places that are on my bucket list.
I fly out of and pick up hubbie frequently in the Las Vegas airport -- people watching is the best.
Airports are the best venue for people watching!
Such sound advice for airplane travel! I appreciated the outfit suggestions. I especially like layers so I can handle the differences in temperature. 👍🏻❤️

I agree with all your suggestions. 😊
Excellent airport tips to avoid problems! Thank you so much for this information - great!
My pleasure!
Easy on - easy off footwear either with socks or sockettes. On that note; great tips what not to wear if a female and will also add IF travelling with a male that might be wearing suspenders which my husband often does, they will set off the metal dectectors for sure. Lesson learned!
Thanks for sharing!
Oh I needed this. Traveling soon and wanted some ideas.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for stopping by!
Thank you Beth. God bless you.
You are so welcome
I would like to put my two cents here. Depending on which airports or TSA standards for scanning underwired bras can lead to wand scanning.
Like all of them Especially black Peacoat Jacket, I have seen a lot of them but not like this one.
They are all very pretty❤❤❤❤
Love that this peacoat is triple fleece. Cozy, soft and easy to tuck inside my tote!
Great video with great advice! Love your Delsey Chatelet carry on - I happen to own this beauty as well. All your travel looks are classy and comfy!
Thanks for watching!
I wear a long skirt with elastic band with a shirt and a cardigan, if not skirt a non fussy dress...thank you J Jill. With a shirt or dress when you go to the loo you don't have to worry about getting your pants in urine..also a wonderful cashmere large throw scarf .. and always leather shoes!!! No rubber!
I was on plane last month where a man was wearing high visibility clothes that reaked of engine oil. I could smell him 3 rows away. He shouldn’t have been allowed on the plane. Imagine what the seat was like when he’d left it.
I just came back from South America, I saw so many high heels, so many!!! These poor women were suffering on the immigration line. Why do that? I don't get it.
@@claudiacoy3294 it’s crazy 🤪
It’s considered “higher status” for women to wear high heels in some Central and South American cultures. I don’t know how they can stand them🙂
Many women in South America are shorter so they wear heels a lot!
@kimberlyperrotis8962 Central and South America have many countries and people. Culture isn’t the same. People inside each country are different. Please, don’t generalize.
@@migdaliav6542
The poster said “many” so she did not generalize. Many means a lot - not all.
Socks to keep your feet warm, comfy shoes! A sweater and my own pillow! On international flights they give you a blankie and small pillow but most democratic flights ( coach) don’t give you a thing! Good advice! Thank you!
Fashionable and yet so practical!! Thank u!
You're so welcome!
Sharing a tip heard fro a Miracle on the Hudson passenger...always wear close-toed shoes that tie. Other types may not stay on your feet in an emergency situation he was in...having to walk onto a plane's slippery wing.
F & E tee is $120 that’s ridiculous
Yeah,I wanted a link to the pea coat until another commenter said it was almost $500.00!😳
I wear a loose fitting cotton dress at calf length, looser cotton bras , socks with my sandals for 6 hours or more flight, Because, I tend to swell up during long flight due to cabin air compression.
I have been doing this kind of dressing for my longer flights in the past 20 years with no problem .
Great advices 🌷
Thanks I so agree with you .I traveled lately and it was a long flight with3 stop overs .and when I reached my destination my friend said you look so fresh .yes thanks to the outfit I had on.and I am73 years with a mettle from my knee to my mid shin bone .
You are definitely correct about the simple yet polished look, a winner every time!
Love your make up. Any advice for foundation and under eye coverage? Thanks 😊
😊Thank you so mucho for your advice, I love it!
God Bless you🙏
Comfortable and Elegant😉
A🎉love you Thank-you for you information 😘
Thanks so much Beth! This was so helpful. Much appreciated ❤
It’s always good to know what not to wear as well as outfit inspiration.
Thanks for stopping by!
Usually on flights my hands swell and I have trouble removing my rings and I feel as if my blood isn’t circulating! so I never wear rings while on the plane! 😊
Perfume gives me migraines and sometimes nausea! I’m very sensitive to lots of odors. The worse being garlic breath.
I never eat Italian the night before I travel and I wish people didn’t wear perfume.
Nice tips! My shoes must allow for socks and be very easy slip-on's because they will make you take them off and I want to be able to get them back on fast. I do not want bare foot on airport floors which is why I have to have socks. The other thing is I carry a laptop and it must be able to come out of the bag quickly so it can go thru security without holding up the line. TFS
I once stood in a security line behind a woman who was wearing nothing but a skin tight white bodysuit. While fully covered, nothing was left to the imagination. Airport people watching is second to none. Wearing colored tights with a shirt that doesn’t cover your bum is also a look others cannot unsee. 😂
We see anything and everything at the airport. It's amusing if nothing else, but I always wonder what their thinking process is!
Great advice. I will be a first time (long haul) traveller in December this year, so these tips are going to come in very handy. (May I just say how lovely your hair is, the style is phenomenal. 🤩)
I will be traveling to Europe soon so this video is perfect. Great tips. Thank you Beth!
Have fun!
I love every one of those outs, especially the pea coat! Your lipstick looks beautiful. 😘
The peacoat is comfortable and versatile. A win/win
@@BethDjalalican you add a link for the pea coat?
@@BethDjalaliNever mind,a commenter below just said it was almost $500.00! 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
What brand/color lipstick? I have white hair, think that lipstick is just what I need! And a fresh coat of lipstick is an instant refresher!!
Shoes that are easy to take off and put on for TSA.
Great outfits and they are truly stylish. The last outfit was my favorite. ❤
Thank you so much!!
Don't forget that over 75 years don't have to remove shoes at TSA checkpoints
I’ve flown 4 times this past year and never had to take off my shoes at TSA. I’m 72 but they didn’t know my age. I guess I look like I’m over 75, haha
Right on
Great advice...I got caught travelling home from the US and ended up wearing skinny jeans, after 12 hours my ankles swoll like balloons!
Thanks dear ..
Thoughtful travel suggestions
Glad it was helpful!
Sure wish I had your clothing budget
I take short footie socks to slip on over mine to walk on public floors, then slip them in a baggie to save for return flight.
Men's cologne smells stronger than women's. I carry a respirator mask that I put on as soon as I sit in my seat. I tell the people beside me and stewards ", this is for allergies.i am allergic to all this cologne". They relax and I breathe like a dream until plane lands.i also never take Ny food or drink from anyone. Airline personnel dont wash their hands between giving drinks and gathering used cups/trash. Think about that.
I’m currently travelling now. Your advice is very helpful. Off topic, I really like the colour scheme in your house
I once boarded a plane and a woman across the isle who was probably in her 30s took out a bottle of nail polish and began painting her nails! The flight attendant flew down the aisle and told her to stop. The woman could not understand why she was asked to stop.
Thanks for the unexpected picture of fashion icon G Dragon!
I live in Atlanta too! Love your content!
Hello neighbor!
Very good advice and thank you for sharing 🙂
You are so welcome!
Titanium doesn't set off any detectors. I ask my surgeon because I was a flight attendant. I'm retired now, with a Titanium neck and back fusion.
300lb + women in shorts. Airline told her to go home and change. Gave her a refund.
Wow!
The picture of a woman in pj’s sure looked like Angelina Jolie and her son😆😆
😉
Pool😊😊
I always choose dark colors for air travel ... in case of unexpected spills.
Thanks for sharing!
Plus that, planes are filthy…dark colors don’t show dirt
Yes, cover your entire body! Germs! Germs! Germs!
Great advice!! Thanks so much ✈️
My pleasure!
First time Sub, late 50 but indeed U make my date.😂💜thank U beautiful soul 💃🏼🇯🇲
Welcome!
None of the pedal pushers. Bad length on me! Ankle scar, plus swelling. I Luke the White oversized blouse, black cardigan, black, full length, straight leg jeans, & U call them gym shoes. My late hubby referred to them as tennis shoes.
Just wondering not sure if you are really tall but aren't those chinos a little short? They are not an ankle pant or a capri kind of hovering in an awkward spot on your leg.
Whose filming.. little fella..the young tanned kid😂😂😂
