LGBT Air France Flight Attendants Want to Avoid Iran

Due to Iran’s classification of homosexuality as a crime punishable by death, LGBT flight attendants working for Air France are resisting flying to the country with the airline. A flight attendant known as Laurent M. has started a petition titled “Gay stewards from Air France don’t want to fly to the death penalty in Iran,” requesting that Air France give LGBT flight attendants the ability to refuse service to Tehran. The petition is addressed to Air France CEO Frederic Gagey, as well as the French Ministry of Transport, and has gained over 2,500 signatures.
