Taiwan flag-carrier China Airlines has launched a new pantsuit uniform in keeping with global trends in the aviation industry.
All women in front-line service roles including ground crews, ticketing staff, and flight attendants at Songshan Airport, Taoyuan Airport, and Kaohsiung Airport can now either wear the pants or skirt uniform based on their personal preferences or the nature of their work. The move will enhance work quality by ensuring the personal comfort of employees.

China Airlines is now making the existing pantsuit uniform available for female front-line service staff, and ground and air crews. Over time, the pantsuit uniform will be available to all staff and employees can choose to rotate between the two styles of uniforms depending on their duties or the weather.
The option has reportedly been welcomed by flight attendants as the suit allows the staff to handle their work with more finesse. Staff also felt more at ease carrying out common tasks such as kneeling to pick up an item, adjusting luggage aboard the plane, bending over to greet travellers, or cleaning up in the cabin. Comfort is greatly improved in cold countries as well.
