   Flight attendants accuse Delta Air Lines

   Delta Air Lines has it out for Jewish and Israeli workers, as   
   well as people traveling to Israel, according to a new Brooklyn   
   federal discrimination lawsuit.   
      
   The four current and former flight attendants allege in   
   Tuesday's suit that management has an "anti-Jewish, Hebrew, and   
   ethnic Israeli attitude."   
      
   The carrier's brass allegedly presumes Jewish and Israeli   
   workers and passengers "cannot be trusted, are aggressive and   
   inappropriate, and engage in what are deemed to be 'strange'   
   behaviors by conducting prayers on the flight and requiring   
   special dietary accommodations (kosher meals)."   
      
   The lawsuit says Delta also launches "targeted enforcement   
   actions" against attendants who share their companion travel   
   passes with Jewish travelers bound for Tel Aviv.   
      
   One attendant said she got probation and a suspension on her   
   travel pass privileges for hooking up a longtime friend with a   
   Tel Aviv pass. The experience was so bad, she said she had to   
   stop working the Tel Aviv flight. Two of the others were scared   
   to share their passes, the suit said.   
      
   Delta Air Lines said it "strongly condemns the allegations of   
   discrimination described in this suit and will defend itself   
   vigorously against them."   
      
   "As a global airline that brings people across the world   
   together every day, Delta values diversity in all aspects of its   
   business and has zero tolerance for discrimination," the carrier   
   added.
