Ok or Not? A Woman Was Banned From Boarding Her Flight for Wearing a Bikini

Publish date: 2024-08-02

A 21-year-old woman claims she wasn’t allowed to board her flight after arriving at the gate in a bikini. The woman explained her reasons, but she still felt it was unfair, sparking an online debate.

Brazilian model and cosplayer, Kine-Chan, put on a costume of the character Rebecca from the anime series Cyberpunk: Edgerunners (2022), a black bikini, blue wig and black sandals, to attend an event. Chan then headed to the Navegantes Airport, in Brazil, to catch a flight and there, according to her own story, she was stopped from boarding her flight due to “inappropriate” clothing.

Chan described the incident on Instagram, where she explained why she decided to dress in the revealing outfit. “A very annoying situation happened this weekend,” she wrote. “I tried to board at Navegantes airport dressed as Rebecca’s Cosplay for an event. I already knew that I could be late, so I was dressed so as not to waste time and could go straight to my room. But I was told to go home and change clothes because the one I was wearing was not ’appropriate’.”

In the comment section of her post, her fans were quick to share their opinion and there were mixed reactions. Some suggested the model had gone a bit too far with her outfit choice, with one user writing: “Kine I love you, but you could have put on an easy pull-up outfit, like a falling dress or even a button-down blouse.”

Others thought differently and supported Chan. “It’s truly disappointing to find out the airport barred you, a talented artist, because of a cosplay as incredible as Rebecca’s. Freedom of speech and creativity should always be encouraged and respected,” someone else wrote.
