Also, it adds to my identity and I can embrace my culture as well.

It’s 2023 and if there allowing people to change there genders and allowing for men that identify as females to participate in female sports (which is outrageous) then having a beard is so minimal compared to what’s happening. Plus it’s natural. ALL BEARDS SHOULD BE WELL GROOMED. I completely agree with not allowing tattoos and hair color and what not, but a beard is natural and if well groomed it looks more professional then a baldy. Whoever began this petition, please follow through with this and make it happen, you have my support!

I have a bad scar that is concealed by my beard and it is 1) a pain to shave around and 2) obsconded from view under my beard. More to the point men look like MEN with beards and it is a part of our identity. We should be allowed to follow our passions as pilots without sacrificing our beards. More to the point ALL recent scientific data shows there is NO difference in the efficacy of mask seals between bearded and non-bearded people.

I too think the rules are archaic and have no basis in science. I support your carrier’s efforts and hopefully that will lead to industry-wide change reaching my carrier too

I’ll be more than happy to assist in any way necessary. I know professors, lawyers, doctors, etc, that wear beards so “we’re a cut above”? Give me a break. I also think the recruiting argument holds a lot of weight right now.

I look professional in uniform with a beat beard!

If we are going to allow FA to have nose rings, colored hair, visible tattoos, as well as beards I don’t see the argument that beards would look unprofessional for pilots. Let’s be inclusive to all groups.

The rest of the world’s authorities/airlines allow their pilots to have groomed facial hair including our neighbor [Canada].
It’s time we make the change to keep up with the rest of the world.

Anyone considered religious reasons? The Army accommodated the Siks in the face of CBRNE requirements. Many folks in Judeaism and other religious sects mandate beards if able to grow them. https://www.armytimes.com/news/your-army/2017/01/05/new-army-policy-oks-soldiers-to-wear-hijabs-turbans-and-religious-beards/

Emirates Allows beards as well for pilots.
