Southwest Airlines.....Hypocritical Dress Code?

It would seem that Southwest Airlines has a double standard relative to their dress code. Southwest took Kyla Ebbert off a flight because they deemed her miniskirt attire inappropriate.

The story appeared in the San Diego Union-Tribune.

Yet, Southwest has painted one of their jets with the full body of Bar Rafaeli an Israeli model dressed in a bikini.

According to the above cited article in the San Diego Union-Tribute, Southwest explained its treatment of Ebbert in a letter to her mother, saying it could remove any passenger “whose clothing is lewd, obscene or patently offensive” to ensure the comfort of children and “adults with heightened sensitivities.”

So my question is: If Kyla Ebbert's clothing was "lewd" or "patently offensive;" What does Southwest call the clothing on the girl painted on the side of their airplane?

Do I hear...."Hypocrits"...."Double Standard"......Kyle finally got to take flight. But one wonders what is Southwest's Dress Code...or do they just fly by the seat of their pants?
