ATLANTA, GA - At a time when taking a flight can be an adventure between computer crashes, air traffic control issues, and parts falling off airplanes, the last thing airline customers give a rip about is diversity, equity, and inclusion. “Just get me to my damn destination in one piece!” Apparently, Delta Airlines hasn’t gotten the message.
Delta’s Chief Diversity Officer, Kyra Lynn Johnson, believes that some facets of airline travel are not “inclusive” enough, One America News (OANN) reports. One part of air travel she has an issue with is the use of “ladies and gentlemen” by employees. That phrase evidently doesn’t meet Delta’s goal of “boldly pursuing equity.”

“Ladies and Gentleman” find another airline because this one no longer cares about you. https://t.co/dT1noBq7wU
Delta’s woke agenda has hit every area of the airline, from hiring practice to such mundane matters such as gate announcements.
