I am so sick of this crap. The world is collapsing around our ears and the WOKE elites are shoving this garbage down our throats.
I was a long-time Delta frequent flier. Always loyal. That’s done. Delta going for the Bud Light method of self-destruction.
? NEW: Delta Airlines has just BARRED the use of the term “ladies and gentleman” from their gate announcements, as it may “offend” some patrons
Apparently Delta wants to Bud Light themselves.

Delta’s top DEI officer jettisons ‘ladies and gentleman’ gate announcements as part of equity push
By: Hannah, Grossman, Fox News, August 10, 2024:
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.
“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?’”
“Use gender-neutral language and pronouns. Do not use language that suggests a gender binary (male-female),” the Delta guide said.
A Delta spokesperson told Fox News Digital that the company encourages its employees to use inclusive language.
“Delta encourages our people to use language that is inclusive of everyone as our global customer base includes a broad range of diversity in cultural backgrounds, identity and experiences,” the spokesperson said.
