I wear sweats/leggings and wash my face, put makeup on, and change into work clothes before leaving the airport to head to the client. No one needs to look good to sit on a plane. Pro tip- avoid being on the same flight as coworkers.

If you’re a gal, Lulu also has pants that look like dress pants for us too. They are 100% my go-to pants for travel and even slower days on site

Hey...yes, GT 😀

I expect people to be comfortable. Just don't be that idiot who wears pajamas just so the whole world knows how comfortable you wish to be. An exception to this situation is an international flight in which pajamas are provided by the airline.

I'm pretty sensitive to the comfort of clothes (and loud noises, crowds, etc.) and always have a spare comfortable set of clothes with me for team dinners and the hotel at night. this is what I will tend to change into on the plane.

also means that I won't risk work clothes getting stains on them if I spill anything during the flight.

Whatever you’d like? I mean, assuming this is personal travel or not straight to client. Be yourself and rock some sweats or something.

How is m or f not everyone’s first question? Are we assuming OP is male?
