The Stamford Hill volunteer Jewish security force Shomrim tweeted on Tuesday that after the Jewish family boarded flight AA142 at John F. Kennedy International Airport, “whilst stowing their bags they were subjected to racial abuse from a Female crew member who shouted ‘You F**** Jews think you control the plane.’”
Shomrim added that the Metropolitan Police at Heathrow International Airport in London were investigating the incident.
American Airlines responded by stating that “our company culture celebrates diversity on all levels. It’s part of who we are. Please have the customer reach out to us directly.”

It is highly likely that the anti-semitic, abusive and despicable American Airlines crew member, was of the same ethnicity, as those who have been attacking our people in Crown Heights, Williamsburg, Boro Park, Monsey, and Jersey City. Unfortunately, they are jealous of us and hate us. Let us see if American Airlines is going to do something (i.e. firing her), instead of “retraining” her. If not, American Airlines should be boycotted.
She was probably referring to the auto-pilot software that was written in Israel by Jews.
Professional aircrew spoke so horribly and publicly without outrageous provocation? I wonder.
I’m with Cyxel on this one.
Let’s face the truth.
We do have some people who are abusing the plan, Minyunim, changing seats ETC
We have to teach our people behavior, we should not be so visible.
“Sticks and stones can break my bones but words can never hurt me.”
bit of a childish approach, but probably the way to go for the Yid in Golus. Don’t stick out, don’t make waves about trivial issues and as long as your are not physically abused, keep a stiff British upper lip.
Cix sorry a professional would never open his or her mouth even under pressure
These embarks were and are uncalled for tune to put pressure on AA to do more then reprimand this individual
Get over it. Stop being a baby.
There has to be more to this story.
I, and probably everyone else here, have no clue what prompted the despicable comment from the flight attendant. But I’m sure that whatever it was, it was only representative of that couple. Had the flight attendant said “You think you own the airplane!?” it would have been unprofessional and possibly worthy of retraining.
However, the flight attendant added the word JEW, which made the comment antisemitic, a terrible offense. Furthermore, that antisemitic comment was prefaced with an an expletive, which should compel American Airlines to fire the flight attendant.
That said, I am quite disheartened by the comments made here. The skin color of the flight attendant has no bearing whatsoever on what happened on that plane and such racist stereotypical allusions are no different than the stereotype that prompted the comment from the flight attendant.
If this couple act inappropriately and in a rude manner, why are the jews f—-?
Did u guys ever hear of self hating jews? Why are we always blaming ourselves?!
