just make sure you sweep the pleats when you go to sit for a long time, or it will be really uncomfortable.
KT, the problem with that is that there is absolutely no room to sweep when trying to sit in an aircraft passenger seat! I would never again fly in a traditional kilt (Aberdeen to London was my first and last time). Nowadays, I wear a Utilikilt or a 'kilt without pleats' :-

Dispense with all unnecessary accessories - pins, flashes, sporrans, etc. Oh, and slip-on shoes are a good idea - so much easier to deal with at security.
