US Airways has acknowledged that less than a week before having a college student arrested for allegedly refusing to hike up his saggy pants while boarding, the airline allowed a man wearing little more than women’s underwear, black thigh-high stockings and heels to fly.

On June 16, University of New Mexico football player Deshon Marman was removed from a US Airways flight at San Francisco International Airport and arrested for refusing to follow crew members’ requests to hike up his saggy pants.

At the time, an airline spokesperson said that while the airline “does not have a specific dress code …we do ask that our passengers dress in an appropriate manner to ensure the safety and comfort of all of our passengers.”

Now there are reports — and a photo published in the San Francisco Chronicle —showing that six days before the saggy-pants incident, the airline allowed a man to board a flight in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., wearing an outfit that consisted, mostly, of women’s underwear and a short, see-through, cover-up shirt.

Jill Tarlow, a fellow passenger on the Phoenix-bound flight, shared a photo of the scantily-clad man with the airline and the newspaper. US Airways spokeswoman Valerie Wunder confirmed to The Chronicle that she'd received the photo before last week's incident in San Francisco but said employees had been correct not to ask the man to cover himself.

“In the case of the gentleman flying of out San Francisco, it was ultimately not a matter of baggy pants. It was a matter of him not complying with crew instructions,” Wunder told msnbc.com. "In terms of the man in Florida: As long as you’re covered you can fly. In the picture, that man is covered. A little unorthodox, but covered."

I applaud the guy!!! He looks so comfortable and secure with himself!! Matter of fact he looks sexy. I'd probably try to sit next to him on the flight and try to give him a 'tugger'!!!

[angela4u]

Thanks to BiGuyCancun for the pointers to these stories....

It seems that the mystery man recently allowed to fly on a US Airways flight wearing little but women’s underwear has been spotted at numerous airports around the country in a variety of similarly skimpy outfits.

Late yesterday, readers sent msnbc.com more photos of the flashy-flier and pointed out videos of him that have been posted on YouTube. The San Francisco Chronicle also published an interview with the photogenic passenger on the condition that it not publish his name.

It turns out he’s a business consultant who flies as a preferred customer on US Airways and often dresses in female clothing to make business travel more fun. "It has never been my intent to put people in a situation where they feel uncomfortable," the man told the Chronicle during a phone interview. "I try to respect other people's opinions. As long as my dress is not indecent from a legal perspective, and so long as the airline does not object, I have the right to wear what I wear. And others have the right to wear what they want to wear."

The man told the Chronicle that he thought his fellow fliers' photos were for personal use, not public distribution.

Jessica Villardi took this photo of what appears to be the same man, this time in pink underwear, on May 20 at Los Angeles International Airport. “I wouldn't let the kids in my party look his way,” she said.

Another reader, who asked to remain anonymous, spotted a similar-looking fellow at the Baltimore airport on Oct. 29, 2010, while he was waiting to board an AirTran flight. “I thought at the time that it may just be a Halloween weekend gag. Guess I was wrong,” the reader said.



The 'underwear traveler' was spotted by an msnbc.com reader Oct. 29, 2010, at the Baltimore aiport waiting to board an AirTran flight.

And Sean Stecker spotted the man in Phoenix just before Christmas. “No way I was missing this, so I yelled to him on my way up the escalator and he waved to us.”

The San Francisco Chronicle first published a photo of the "underwear traveler" on Tuesday. The picture was provided by Jill Tarlow, who told the newspaper that she flew with the man on the same June 9 US Airways flight from Fort Lauderdale, Fla., to Phoenix. Tarlow said passengers had complained to airline workers before the flight, but that their complaints were ignored.

US Airways spokeswoman Valerie Wunder told msnbc.com: "As long as you’re covered you can fly. In the picture, that man is covered. A little unorthodox, but covered."

that would be so freeing (is that a word?) - I can only dream of walking around in some of my sexiest outfits 'in the full light of day' .

[Jim]

[yasha32]

[arnoldlane]

Where do I sign up to get in his fan club?? In international airports.... the guy is my hero!

[barbT]

Would love to meet him behind the curtain and have some fun--fun--fun...doesnt seem to have room to get too excited tho..

[mic091221]

all i can say is GUTS,,, and this Gal has them.....

i am pretty open,, but WOW,, i don't think i could do it... especially facing the cameras doing it too...

Yikes!! good job.

[pervey]

The last outfit is just too much!

As Teddy Roosevelt would say, Bully for him! (her, ah, trans, whatever).

[silkerect5]

I think hes extremely hot..was definitely aroused when i saw him in the blue outfit!

[jack08]

I love wearing my thongs on planes so much more comfortably, admittedly I wear it under my clothes. Maybe next time I should just ditch the clothes!

[mic091221]

i still don't think i could do it.
plus as daring as he may be, I just don't think it is proper to to parade in an environment like an airport.
Yes he has every right to do it,, but i think he is doing it more out of getting seen and in the news rather than doing it for his own enjoyment.

i dress everyday underneith. but keeping my wits with me at all times..

my opinion.

[JACQUI84]

Oh dear what lovely gurl, Id love to meet him , I havent the courage to do that but Id love to.

[Jim]

i had to take another look,he is very sexy!

[atxbi]

That is too cool! I wish I was as free as he is. Yes, like many people there are good reasons why I'm not.

But more power to him!
