One usually gets a blanket to cover the shorts on long hauls.

@VladimirF The certainly help, but they're not enough sometimes. I've been cold with a blanket and long pants before, so I'd rather change into shorts before landing if it's warm at the destination.

One summer, I was on a trans-Atlantic flight where, in the couple of rows around my seat, the aircon was extremely cold. The cabin crew tried to adjust it but it didn't have any effect and all they could do was give us extra blankets, which worked fine. Once she was comfortable, the woman sitting next to me reached in to her bag for a book to read. She'd pulled it from the shelf at random that morning, without even looking at it. The title, "Snow in August", seemed pretty appropriate to us.

Another point against shorts -- I would not want the skin of my legs rubbing against a rough unsanitary airplane seat for hours.
