There might be something to it, I had some plum colored clothing a while back that did that while the other colors from the same line gave me no problems. Figured I was just allergic to whatever dye plant was used.

Flight attendants’ complaints about the uniforms are among the issues being pursued by a union seeking to organize workers at Delta.

If you ever have the pleasure to fly China Southern Airways (one of Deltas partners) you will notice that they wear the same uniforms and they are all gorgeous babes.

Didn’t get headaches or fatigue but got one heck of a rash and itching.

Just did last week - A380, business class, Guangzhou to LAX.

And they are. :) Much taller than the average Chinese girl.

My wife is from China, we flew from Shanghai to LAX last week as well on a 350-900. The planes are impeccably clean and the service is fantastic. They have a great business model that the US airlines may want to copy.

Where do they hide these stews? Every time I fly it’s a bunch of grandma-aged stews.

Yeah, and whoever thought having a complexion more suited to an oven-roasted turkey would make them seem more attractive to passengers needs some therapy. And screening for melanoma.

Off topic , but had to look up where that city is. That city was formerly called Canton, China.

Hard to keep up with all the changes in the world. Bombay became Mumbai, Peking became Beijing, Congo became Zaire and then Congo again, etc.

St. Petersburg was Petrograd. Constantinople became Istanbul. And yes, the stewardesses have a right to complain about poor fabrics.

Fourth largest city in China - 13 million people - bigger than any city in the USA. Highest building is taller than any in the USA. Lot of big money there. And yet, most Americans don’t even know where it is. :)

There is actually some interest among the business community there in renaming it Canton again, since the name is better known internationally. The giant trade show held there twice a year (to which many of us make mandatory pilgrimages) is still called the Canton Fair.
