You have got to be kdding me about Setara Qassim (Tucson to San Diego flight that was asked to cover up). If Setara was wearing that green dress, Southwest's dress code for her is inappropriate (nothing that revealing). Smart dressing for safety, no, but not lewd that she was singled out and made to cover up.
Kyla is a definite yes to covering up when one could have seen her panties when she sits down but Setara is going way overboard.
Maybe it's time to quit letting 50-70 year old people at SWA make the decision and let someone in their 20's who know modern fashion and trends make more reasonable decisions about dress.
It's even time to do a PSA or reminder to passengers about how to dress for safety while in flight (some of the current fashion out there would make it harder to evacuate a plane in case of emergency). People need to learn to dress smart for safety, not necessarily for fashion. Go to the hotel at the destination or change in an airport restroom at your final destination and put on your short skirts and low-chest coverage tops if you must.

here's a website with a photo of the Southwest 727 (not my site or anyone I know of, i just googled to try to find a site that had the picture I remember seeing before and could imagine in my mind as I read this blog entry):

as for the 7 series that i've flown on, it's been 727, 737 and 747 (primarily 737 since I fly SWA).

The AP had it wrong. Southwest will not inaugurate international service to Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean in 2009. Southwest already has international service -- to the desert runway near the Pyramids for tourists convenience in visiting Egypt and its Wonder of the World.
