A pair of longtime flight attendants for United Airlines have filed a lawsuit against the company, claiming that based on a request from the Los Angeles Dodgers, they use almost exclusively younger White attendants on charter flights for the team.
The lawsuit, filed with the Los Angeles Superior Court, alleges that United removed minority female flight attendants from Dodgers charter flights, replacing them with 'young White thin women who did not have to interview for the highly coveted positions,' and thus engaging in discrimination.
'The two say that despite their interviews, and being among the best of the best, they were denied the positions, which are viewed in the industry as a promotion of sorts. 'I looked at the list and that's when they added three blonde hair, blue-eyed, Caucasian individuals,' Quezada said. Their attorney says while the Dodgers are not listed as a defendant in the case, he understands changes were made based on team's preferences for crew members.
