The letter further explains that the average age of Meridiana flight attendants is 42 years and therefore the application of these regulations and these "miniuniforms" are something "unacceptable for ethical issues, the rights of workers and also by physical reasons. "

Flight attendants say the company has justified these new measures to "improve the attractiveness" of the airline flight attendants in the minds of the travelers.

The letter has more than 400 signatures, including those of fellow flight attendants who have joined in solidarity to protest.
