Can't believe what I just heard

I work as a part-time travel agent in my friend's agency, so this woman calls asking for fares to Europe... I wanted to give her fare on Jet Airways through Brussels (which is a discount airline from India that just started operating on European market) anyways, she goes: "who are the pilots?" I was a bit confused what she was asking me and then she goes: "what is their skin color, I only fly with people that have the same skin color as I do" omg, let me tell you, I was in shock, I have never heard anyone being so disrespectful, I just wanted to hang up! ***** is wrong with people?

Re: Can't believe what I just heard

How did she know she wasn't speaking to a person of color? Why would she take the chance of saying something that ignorant and offensive to someone ON THE PHONE who was about to take very private information from her (credit card info, home address, etc.) and could use that info in revenge against her? It's just ignorant on so many levels!

Re: Can't believe what I just heard

Hmmm... perhaps what she was trying to say is that she prefers to fly on a plain where the pilot had American training and american licences...?

I mean, how exactly can one find out what color is the skin of the pilot?

no there was no mistaking what she meant...
I would love to see her face when she gets on the plane and sees a pilot that is not white... gee I wonder, would she get off the plane? seriously, I still cant get over her stupidity...

I would have told her that the airline industry is phasing out white pilots just to mess with her. Chat Icon
