I actually like that the majority walk around wearing what they had on at the time. The TGI Friday’s waitress flying a 777 is a lot funnier than a naked pilot.

yeah exactly, and it highlights that they are all interchangeable. would be harder to show that all naked.

So true! Also, from my point of view as someone that knows zilch about how casting and costuming works on a big production like this, it certainly feels like the casting call for extras was along the lines of “show up wearing whatever the hell you want to!”

The supermarket restocking scene is a great example of outfit variety.

They even adjusted they clothing to please her. They acknowledged they had the flight crew dress more professionally on her second flight, after she got a little shook up at the TGIFridays server flying her plane.
