thats like asking if, when flying on Emirates or anyother middle eastern carrier.. will most of the people on the flight be muslim

I remember a news story back about half a year ago about some guy from texas pitching a fit at the JFK airport onboard a Kuwait airlines flight, which he was cause for delay of the flight by 3 hours.. he was going on and on (on his soapbox) about how he was afraid for his security because there were too many muslim looking people on the flight and was afraid to fly on the flight because the entire crew was muslim looking and was pitching a fit about how he doesnt want the flight to leave jfk until a non-muslim looking crew was found to fly the plane... and fyi.. his final destinantion was Muscat oman...

Did he REALIZE that the airline is based in a muslim country and muslim owned.. and furthermore did he actually know that oman is in the middle east!! WHAT A FRICKIN MORON.. and fyi finally the police came onboard and arrested him for interfering with a flight crew... and got a nice Felony out of the deal what a fruitcake

For example, we are going on the non stop from Washington Dulles to Seoul. Will basically everyone be Asian on the flight?

What has been your experience?
