In 2026, boarding a flight can be more than just about having a valid ticket and ID. Your airport attire might be the deciding factor on whether you make it onto your plane! In this video, I dive into the 10 items that have become major causes of denied boarding at airports worldwide. You won’t believe how simple fashion choices are leading to serious travel disruptions.

What changed in airport dress codes? In late 2025, airlines updated their policies after government officials publicly commented on passenger clothing. Now, gate agents have unprecedented authority to deny boarding based on vague terms like "inappropriate attire" or "offensive clothing." If you’re planning to travel in 2026, you need to know what to wear to avoid unexpected hassle, delays, and rebooking fees that can cost you hundreds of dollars.

In this video, I’ll walk you through the top 10 clothing items that could derail your travel plans:

Graphic T-Shirts – What seems like a harmless tee could get you flagged at the gate.
Pajamas & Slippers – Even travel-specific sleepwear may be considered inappropriate.
Shoes with Metal Embellishments – Rhinestones and bulky soles can trigger TSA delays.
Compression Socks – Too restrictive can cause health risks and security issues.
Multi-Pocket Vests – These popular travel accessories might be too complicated for security.
Light-Colored Pants – White pants and airport floors don’t mix.
Maxi Dresses – Floor-length attire is a magnet for airport dirt.
Tight Jeans – These can cause health problems during long flights.
Underwire Bras and Metal Belt Buckles – Trigger security scanners, leading to uncomfortable delays.

Clothing You Can't Quickly Remove – If it’s not fast to take off at security, you could be the cause of a line delay.

Pro Tips for Smooth Airport Travel in 2026:

Pack graphic tees in your luggage to avoid being flagged.
Dress one level above casual – think business casual.
Stick with simple slip-on shoes and avoid bulky or detailed designs.
Go for dark-colored pants – they hide stains and look cleaner through travel.
