“Online Petition Urges Flight Attendants to Ditch Heels; Luo Yonghao Supports, but Cautions Against Appearance-Based Criticism”
Tech entrepreneur Luo Yonghao supports airlines relaxing footwear requirements for flight attendants, stating that appearance shouldn’t be a primary hiring factor. This follows a trend of airlines like Spring Airlines, Hunan Airlines and Juneyao Airlines prioritizing comfort and safety over traditional aesthetics. These airlines now permit or mandate flat shoes either full time or during in-flight service, addressing concerns raised about the impracticality and safety hazards of high heels in the high-altitude environment of an aircraft.
