No! I wouldn't expect an airline to cover him up, nor would I request he be removed from the flight (although I may request to move seats if he's taking up both his and mine).  It's silly that they're targeting young women, when really the entire populace is guilty of fashion assault.  What about the frumpy old ladies who wear spandex pants?  That could be considered provocative (although since they're generally not attractive women, no one cares).  <br/><br/>In my opinion, if they want to enforce a dress code, they ought to have that dress code on display online, at ticket sales, and at the check-ins - so there's no mistakes to be made.<br/><br/><div class='qp pad d'><i>Lynda White, who teaches etiquette classes and calls herself &quot;The First Lady of Manners,&quot; said many young people have gotten lax on what to wear and how to act &#8212; possibly influenced by Hollywood stars.
