Have you ever seen the signs that say "No shoes, no shirt, no service?" It should be assumed that wearing shoes is the bare minimum standard that society expects of its members. I can't believe you thought it would be acceptable to board an airplane barefoot. You must have looked like a hillbilly. There is a time and a place for being barefoot but a crowded airplane flight would not be one of them, by my definitions.
You weren't denied entry for not having shoes, it was the loincloth
I went to Ft Worth TX for business this week. Basically went barefoot when I got to the BART station in Oakland and stayed that way until I got to my hotel in Fort Worth (SFO security, the terminal, the plane, the rental car shuttle, the drive to Ft Worth, the car valet, the hotel check-in) and then went for a bf run. I did put on my VFF to go to the bathroom; I have to draw the line somewhere. I didn't see anyone else barefoot along the way. Has anyone seen other fellow barefoot travelers?
