Okay to wear on a Plane?

Question

I was wondering if it was ok to wear flip flops on a plane? I know you have to remove your shoes for security so I thought flip flops would be great, but then I thought about walking bare foot through the metal dectector might be gross. What do you guys think?

Answer 1

Yes.. I wear them all the time and so do many other people.

Often times security wont even make you take them off either.

Answer 2

I see people wearing "crocs" on planes all the time but hardly ever flip flops. Maybe it is because Crocs look more like shoes. I have a pair and they are very comfortable and easy to slip in and out of.

Answer 3

Flip-flops are great!! THEY are on me all the time=D!!! When u go through security you dont take off ur flip flops.....

Answer 4

yea u can n no its not gross walking barefoot...lol

Answer 5

Yes it's okay to wear flip flops on a plane and it might be gross to step through the metal detector with your bare feet but look at all the time and hassle it'll save you!

Answer 6

I've worn flip flops on planes but only for short flights. On the longer international ones, the airplane gets kind of cold so i wear socks with sneakers, but i have seen people wear flip flops on a ORD - NRT flight.

Answer 7

It's a good idea.

Do check though if you are sitting at an emergency exit row.  They get cold.  If it is an international flight, those flights get cold too.  In these cases you might want to pack some warm socks along.
