I just came home last night and traveling in Dulles, two different security people I looked nice. I just had high waisted dark denim boot cut slim jeans, black turtleneck, black cowboy boots (under jeans, not over the top) and my leather moto jacket. Comfortable, polished and cool.

You don't say how long your flights are. I have a travel uniform for long-haul (basically anything 8+ hours or if I'll be sleeping).

Fashion sneakers
Compression socks (not fashionable to wear, but key for actually being able to get my shoes on at the destination!)
Fleece-lined leggings
Quick-dry dress that is long enough to wear as a dress without the leggings, so that I'm comfortable arriving in a hot climate
Zip-up hoodie with zippered pockets
Colorful scarf that I can use as a blanket

I only care about practicality Igor travel days.

I always wear socks. I hate walking barefoot through security screening.

I also tend to wear slip on shoes so I don’t need to futz with laces.

If it’s winter, I wear a packable down coat that can be compressed into my tote bag.

I also like elastic waist pants. No zippers or button fly pants for airports/airplanes.

Wear clothes you are comfortable sitting in for a few hours, so like something similar to what you may wear to telework or go to the office? This is really not hard. I honestly wonder how some of the people who post here function in the world on a daily basis.

This is the Beauty and Fashion board where people like to talk about...fashion. It's really not hard to understand that.

I just wear my normal clothes; jeans and a tee, sweater, button down. I don’t find it uncomfortable. You are just sitting.

I wear black or navy joggers with a wide drawstring waist, Rothy's sneakers, a t-shirt, and hip length cardigan. A small crossbody purse and a scarf or wrap for accessories. For overnight flights, I wear a non-underwire bra for more comfortable sleeping.

Agree---wide legged pants touching the toilet floor, the airplane floor at my seat? That all just grosses me out. Why wear all that extra fabric?

Or you can wear something like Athleta Brooklyn Ankle pants.

I'd avoid loose pants that touch the floor but that's just me.

Same. I’d avoid wide legged pants that might touch the airplane toilet. I prefer fitted yet flexible pant fabric that won’t swish and swoosh against dirty surfaces.

This is why I wear leggings. Think I'm too fat? Oh, well.

I love travel and the airport ensemble is part of the getaway, plus, we usually make a stop at the various airport clubs and I just like to look a little more put together - but that's just me.

I'm confused...you think that looks out together?

I like your relaxed style!

Picture someone wearing black joggers and a black shirt/sweatshirt vs gray joggers and a gray shirt/sweatshirt. Black will automatically appear more elevated.

It shows my cat fur.

Get black cats - their fur will blend into your all black outfit. Plus, you can sneak them onto the plane because they'll blend with you (as long as they keep their eyes shut). /s
