Bug Blog by Cuco Rocha Do Bigot Fly SWA? Two American Muslims were stopped from boarding a Southwest Airlines plane because of a bigoted passenger who didn't want to fly with them. Hey racist Southwest Airlines passengers: if you don't like traveling with brown people, I suggest you start taking Greyhound instead.
This event occurred in November of 2015. Check out the 5 Pillars.com article on the occuance, this is a Moslem website. http://5pillarsuk.com/2015/11/24/two-men-stopped-from-boarding-us-plane-for-speaking-arabic/ To say this was a “bigoted action” is a bit of overreach. The event occurred shortly after the Paris attacks and were acts of Prejudice that was fueled by fear. Also it wasn’t just SWA, but Spirit Airlines that similar events occurred.
