Thigh Tattoo Concern

Hey,
Just a quick question regarding tattoos. I understand every airline is different although the majority will accept tattoos as long as they are concealed. In the long run, I'd love to work for Virgin Atlantic but I'm unsure as to if they'd accept thigh tattoos. Now, the thigh tattoo is to be completely covered by the skirt (given that they are just below the knee in length) as it will only be to my mid calf. (Example for the size of the tattoo, although this isn't my tattoo: Click here for example)
Even though it will be covered, I am still unsure if they'll be accepted. As I read on British Airways, "Tattoos are only permitted on parts of the body that can be covered up. This would only be around the torso area or mid to lower back." but this does not include the thigh area which again, leaves me confused.

Please if anyone could shed any light on the what the rules an regulations are with any airlines, reply?

It'll be greatly appreciated, thanks.

i think that you don't have to worry, i have tattoo on my wrist i showed it during interview and they said me that they can't promise me anything. after 3 days i had a mail where they asked me to send some photo with watch on my wrist to show that i can cover tattoo, and after 3 days of that they invited me to the course, is not virgin atlantic, but i think that you have to try. You are even in better position than me because you can hide tattoo under the skirt and i can't. remember that if they decide that you could be great in the work they will forget about tattoo.

i wish you all the best

I think that you will have no problems. My friend has a tattoo on a thigh, and it works some years in airline. So good luck to you!

From your photo, I would say that you should be fine.

Most airlines do not permit visible tattoos; and they specifically state they cannot be covered with plaster, a wristwatch, or concealer.

As mentioned by previous posters, the rules are that it ok as long as not visible in uniform... so that is what you have to consider!
