Summary

A TikTok simulation of a woman being denied boarding a Delta flight for wearing gym attire sparked 2 million views. The video, featuring a character named Brooke, shows her in spandex shorts and a midriff tank. Delta’s dress code, outlined in its Contract of Carriage, prohibits attire that causes “unreasonable risk of offense or annoyance.” A real traveler, Kay Rose, reported being dress-coded for wearing a crop top and sweatpants. Delta offered compensation, but the passenger declined. Comments on the video ranged from criticism of Brooke’s outfit to support for her right to dress freely.
