Flight Attendants Push Asiana, Korean Air to Wear Sneakers
Korean Air flight attendants have requested the option to wear sneakers during onboard duties to enhance comfort, especially as the airline undergoes rebranding and merges with Asiana Airlines. At a press conference on March 7, 2025, union members highlighted the demanding nature of their jobs, which involve over 15,000 steps in long shifts. They criticized the current uniform design as “unhealthy and unsafe.” While a Korean Air official acknowledged the request, any policy changes will take time. This move aligns with a global trend among airlines prioritizing practicality in uniforms, contrasting with stricter standards in many Asian and Middle Eastern carriers.
