They're the last western airline that hires and fires flight attendants based on looks.

I hope there are better ways to go to/come from India than flying Aeroflot. But I guess they won’t get shot down by Putin, just by shoddy maintenance and craftsmanship.
Alleged.
Unless there’s proof - I believe the airline acted legally in returning them to their origin point.
Someone gets to a port of entry without proper paperwork, they are generally returned to the point of departure.
Snicker. Snicker.
Ah, I understand now. Two of the passenger names:
Sabiha Islam, Bakiul Islam.
OMG! Someone supposedly said a mean thing to some Americans overseas!
That headline is way out of whack. Sending them back to India makes a lot more sense.
I don’t think it’s racism if you’re _deported_ back to the airport from which you entered the deporting country’s airspace. If relations between the US and Russia were on a normalized footing, I’m sure they’d be passed on to New York or wherever when the weather cleared.
Doing the deporting that the American government won’t do. And yet we consider Russia an enemy...
You fly a two-bit airline to get cheap fares, and you get two-bit treatment.
Unless you are flying that to-bit airline because you think their security protocols are lax, what is your complaint? You got what you paid for.

“Following the incident the passengers—Marc Fernandes, Shahana Islam, Sabiha Islam, Bakiul Islam, and Agrawal—notified law firm Lewis Baach and civil rights organization Muslim Advocates who together filed an official complaint to the U.S. Department of Transportation.”

No IT support for you Putin.
If they have Indian passports, and are not 100% US citizens only, then cheers to Russia for threatening to send him back to India. We don’t need them.
