Over the last few years, Delta Air Lines has embraced the diversity, equity and inclusion agenda under the purview of a chief officer who believes that the phrase “ladies and gentlemen” isn’t inclusive.
Delta’s Chief Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Social Impact Officer Kyra Lynn Johnson has said publicly Delta is striving to “boldly pursue equity” which has impacted every level of the company, from its hiring practices to the language it uses in gate announcements.
“Use gender-neutral language and pronouns. Do not use language that suggests a gender binary (male-female),” the Delta guide said.
“So we’re beginning to take a hard look at things like our gatehouse announcements. You know, we welcome ‘ladies and gentlemen.’ And we’ve asked ourselves, ‘Is that as gender inclusive as we want to be?’” Johnson said during a February 2021 panel with other DEI insiders. “You know, we’re looking at some legacy language that exists in some of our employee manuals. And getting to the root of the way some things are described and saying, ‘Does that actually send a message of inclusivity?’”
Delta released an inclusive language guide in December 2020 which advised employees and leaders against using terms that reinforce the notion that there are only two genders.

they are not going to be happy until planes fall out of the sky due to DEI
We get it. In a world in which there have been over 50 gender identities discovered so far, it is outrageous to suggest that everyone is either a man or a woman.
I wish this was sarcasm but its not because we are supposed to be inclusive. Heck maybe there are more gender identities just waiting to be discovered.
OMG. That is the most extensive bosom I've seen in years.
When I lived in Philly decades ago, a local burlesque dive called "The Troc" featured a stripper whose stage name was "Bermuda Schwartz", and whose act consisted largely of crawling on-stage and attempting to stand up without falling forward due to the weight of her bosom. Ol' Bermuda was white.
Perhaps Kyra is her reincarnation as a BOC (Bosom Of Color).
Ought to be burrowing tunnels through solid rock in the mines of Janus VI, not dictating airline policies.

Homopedos have taken control of Delta.
the left are forcing their hostile takeover of this country on the nation- in the UK they are arresting people now for ‘disinformation’ or for criticism of the gov there- the left here are tryign their dangdest to do the same here
Utterly ridiculous! I think they should now say: “Ok people, listen up . . . “

I think we’re up to 72 now. And each time a new one is added, you’d better quickly get up to speed or you’re guilty of a hate crime.
Our main enemies (China and the Islamists) must find this quite amusing.
Ooh, she’s a big’un.

I was thinking something similar but perhaps a little more Samuel Jackson....
Listen up you idiots, I’m only saying this once.
Are they going to start calling passengers “kamerads’?
I take issue with “identified so far”. How can you identify something that does not exist? There are 2, period. Maybe 3 (neither as a label) if you count medical/genetic abnormalities. End of the day it is XX or XY.
Sentient beings and democrats.
Why not use Gays and Straights? LOL.
Holy Water Buffalo!!!
“Now here this. Now here this. Time for you cattle to quit milling around and line up for the loading chute or ya’ll gonna’ miss yo’ flight.”
gender free, a bit colloquial, and a tad of ebonics/southern thrown in to boot ...
I wanna see that fit into the coach seats.
