A former Chinese flight attendant fired for posting a lingerie selfie in an aircraft toilet appeals against dismissal amid cyberbullying claims.A former flight attendant of China Southern Airlines who was sacked for taking a selfie in her bra in a plane toilet and posting it online has appealed to a provincial high court for a review of her case.

Guo shared the picture on WeChat, with the caption: "I feel like wearing nothing. It’s super comfortable. After having worn this brand of bra for a long time, my breast size has increased." In February this year, the Guangzhou Intermediate People’s Court delivered a final verdict in the case that the firing is legal.

The airline then took the case to the Baiyun District People’s Court in Guangzhou, arguing that while the flight was delayed, the cabin crew were not entitled to take a break, a key point in the case.However, the court agreed with the initial arbitration commission panel decision and said that while Guo’s behaviour was inappropriate, it was not serious enough to justify her sacking.

China Southern Airlines then appealed to the Guangzhou Intermediate People’s Court which reversed the two earlier decisions and ruled that Guo had mistakenly assumed she was on a break and took the selfie to market the bra, in violation of her employment contract.
