Sara Nelson, president of the Association of Flight Attendants, took to Twitter Tuesday morning. She tweeted: “Seriously? "That will require support from all participants in the industry," it said."The IATA Diversity and Inclusion Awards aim to help that process by recognizing and encouraging positive examples of people and teams that are making a difference.
Earlier, in a prepared statement, Al-Baker said, "Qatar Airways recognizes the need for wider diversity in the workplace, not just in our airline but across the industry as a whole." He said Qatar will work with IATA for the next decade,"continuing to encourage greater inclusion and diversification in the airline community.”
“I told them I’d be happy to accept if an openly gay Qatar cabin crew member called to invite me. Radio silence! “
