Two flight attendants from United Airlines claim in a lawsuit that a charter flight for the Dodgers denied them a position because the players preferred women who were “white, young, thin.”
The flight attendants have alleged they didn’t fit the “certain look” preferred by the players and the airline denied them the roles on the basis of race and other physical biases: Dawn Todd, 50, is black, and Darby Quezada, 44, is of mixed Mexican, black and Jewish descent. The Dodgers are not named as defendants, and a team spokesperson told the Los Angeles Times that the Dodgers do not comment on pending litigation. that alleged the airline of staffing flights with “young, white, female and predominately blonde/blue-eyed” attendants. The new lawsuit uses that 2020 settlement as the basis for the new case, saying “things changed again in 2022 when several white United flight attendants were added to the ‘dedicated crew.
They also alleged that following their interviews and entry into the program, the duo received fewer assignments on the Dodgers flights and ended up demoted after a time, with Quezada eventually was removed “without any justification.”
