Hi all, word out on the street is that uniforms have begun shipping to FAs.
Uniform Shipping Update
As of this past Monday, 1000 FA uniforms had been shipped. By the end of this week that number should be 4000. By the end of next week we should be at 5500 to 6000. Once FA uniforms have been shipped we will move on to CSAs. That means CSA should start receiving items by the end of the month.
A few important reminders regarding your uniform shipment:
What should I do when I get my order?
First, open your order right away and verify your packing slip matches what you received. Then try on all your pieces to make sure they fit. If you need to return anything, please initiate the return immediately as it may take 2-3 weeks to get an exchange processed. Return process is included in your order.
The last date for flight attendants to return garments to TwinHill for exchange will be February 8, 2008 to ensure your items are sent back in time for the launch on March 3rd. Please note: All flight attendants are expected to be in compliance on launch day.
When can I wear my new uniform?
Your new uniform cannot be worn until your departmental program launch date: March 3rd for Flight Attendants and a Customer Service launch date to be determined and communicated later this month.
It’s cold! Can I at least wear my new all-weather coat?
Yes, your new all-weather coat is the only piece that can be worn immediately upon delivery.
How will alterations be handled? Am I on my own?
The garments that are sent to you will be the size that fit you best at your fitting. No alterations are made by TwinHill, unless you choose to receive your pants pre-hemmed. If you need any alterations for your new garments you have two options – take them to your favorite tailor or take them to any Men's Wearhouse location (women too). The Men's Wearhouse has very competitive rates. Keep in mind the alterations must be consistent with your department's uniform expectations. Go online at www.menswearhouse.com to find any of the more than 550 Men's Wearhouse locations throughout the U.S.
I received my uniform pants and they are the wrong length. Can I return them?
No. Altered or cleaned items cannot be returned. However, you may take them to your tailor or the Men’s Wearhouse store nearest you to be re-altered to an appropriate length.
Be sure to save your receipts for alterations, you will need these to attach to your expense report reimbursements.
What is the process for a return or exchange?
TwinHill merchandise cannot be returned to a Men's Wearhouse retail location. If you need to return or exchange your TwinHill product(s) please follow the instructions below.
