This is a somewhat old story, but interesting nonetheless.

Hotties in the sky – reuters.com: An Ecuadorean airline has come up with a risqué way of attracting customers – they have put models in lingerie in the aisles.
Ícaro airlines is putting underwear fashion parades on several national flights for a two-week special.
All passengers on Ecuador’s most well-travelled route from the capital Quito to the port city of Guayaquil will be treated to a 10-minute sky-high show.

    Hey Dvorak, I just listened to your podcast Cranky Geeks and have some relative info you might like to know. I went to Putnam City High School in Oklahoma City, OK that had a scandal involving students that changed grades in the school system in 2001. They changed grades for around a dozen students and I believe some of them paid. When they were caught, only one student was suspended for a semester and the school was unable to prove anyone else was involved. No criminal charges were filed either. That’s a pretty big different compared to the situation you talked about this week. Adios.

    And American Airlines won’t even pass out nickel bags of peanuts.

  4. GigG says:

    While the view down the aisle is much improved I really don’t want to be sitting by some guy while he enjoys the show.

  5. mandarin says:

    So far the only people who are too excited are the photographers. How do you enjoy a show with all those clowns covering your view?

  6. Olo Baggins of Bywater says:

    As much fun as that would be, and as many flight attendants as I would like to see without a layer or two of clothing, imagine the nutballs it would attract. No thanks.

  7. bill says:

    Imagine how Southwest Airlines would treat this?

  8. OhForTheLoveOf says:

    #3 – #4 – #6 – Thanks for offering a voice of reason… I sure don’t want to fly Ecuadorean Airlines…

    Of course, I wasn’t gonna fly Ecuadorean Airlines when I realized they were from Ecuador.

  9. mark says:

    I am seriously reconsidering my position of flying.

  10. mark says:

    How can the pilots fly when they are constantly looking in the rear view mirror?

  11. OhForTheLoveOf says:

    #10 – Maybe not all men turn into jibbering drooling idiots when they see a skinny woman in underwear?

  12. mark says:

    11. A theory I would not like to put to the test.

  13. Jeff says:

    #12, you do know that there are gay pilots?

  14. mark says:

    13. Of course, they would be the one critiquing the models.*

    *joke

  15. jdm says:

    How do the models change their outfits in those tiny bathrooms?

    Old news John, I’ve already seen ads for “mile high” dates on the AirBus 380. departing Schiphol (Amsterdam) to some citys in asia.

    Wow! these gals really know how to work a runway…
    I bet they get through security screen far quicker too..

    Wonder what they do on the tarmac???

    Hey Mr. Dvorak. Why can’t you subscribe to your RSS fedds anymore? Your feed isn’t working in IE or FF. Whats up with that.

    ya know – I hate airplanes… they’re cramped, crowded, hazard-ridden and the food sucks. Plus, its basically a flying bomb that you pay to ride in (not unlike a disney ride)…

    But DAMN!!!!! Lemme on THAT plane!!!! How much for sexy time?!?
