LEGGINGS-CLAD GIRLS BARRED FROM FLIGHT

-

A United Airlines gate agent barred two girls from boarding a flight Sunday morning because the girls were wearing leggings.

Another girl who was wearing grey leggings had to change before she was allowed to board the flight from Denver to Minneapoli­s, a witness said.

“Since when does @united police women’s clothing?” Shannon Watts, who was at a gate at Denver Internatio­nal Airport, said on Twitter.

United tweeted that “United shall have the right to refuse passengers who are not properly clothed via our Contract of Carriage.” And added, “This is left to the discretion of the agents.”
