"Delta is now saying that this was a internet rumor, and that Delta does not discriminate yet has to uphold all visa regulations set by the governments of the countries it serves.
Here's what Abe Foxman of the ADL had to say:
I usually disagree with the ADL because of their ultra liberal stance on issues that are contrary to Jewish Law but I agree 100% on this issue. The full ADL article can be found here: http://www.adl.org/PresRele/DiRaB_41/6074_41.htm |

However, if it's as currently done, this will only be a codeshare flight, where Saudi Arabian Airlines (currently the only carrier that flies from the USA to Saudi Arabia) will be flying the plane. |

If they didn't let in non-Muslims they'd have an inusfficient supply of servants. |

"Delta Air Lines does not discriminate nor do we condone discrimination against any of our customers in regards to age, race, nationality, religion or gender," the airline said in a statement. The controversy emerged after a Thursday report was circulated widely across the Web claiming that U.S. Jews would not be able to fly on Delta flights to Saudi Arabia under the airline alliance because of restrictive travel policies imposed by the Saudi government, which adheres to strict Islamic law. Delta is part of the multi-airline SkyTeam alliance, made up of 14 airlines including Air France and KLM. Saudi Arabian Airlines has been approved by the alliance's member airlines to join in 2012. In its statement, Delta said it does not operate in Saudi Arabia nor does it codeshare (sell Delta seats on flights operated by other carriers) with airlines that serve that country. Delta said it has no plans to offer codeshare flights or other cross-airline benefits with Saudi Arabian Airlines. Delta's agreement with the Saudi carrier allows passengers to book tickets on multiple airlines "similar to the standard interline agreements American Airlines, US Airways and Alaska Airlines have with Saudi Arabian Airlines," the statement said. The Anti-Defamation League, an international organization that fights anti-Semitism, wrote a letter to Delta urging the airline to reject discriminatory policy. "We understand that Delta, as any airline, is required to comply with the visa requirements of the destination country," wrote ADL National Director Abraham H. Foxman in a letter to Delta's CEO. "However, Saudi Arabia's past practice of banning travelers with an 'Israel' stamp in their passport from gaining entry into the country runs contrary to the spirit and intent of Delta's non-discrimination policy." The Saudi government, one of the world's most restrictive, has addressed the reports, denying many of the claims about its travel policies. "Rumors being circulated via the Internet regarding passenger flight restrictions on Saudi Arabian Airlines are completely false. The Government of Saudi Arabia does not deny visas to U.S. citizens based on their religion," the Saudi Arabian Embassy said in a statement. The Saudi embassy told CNN it does not deny visas because of Israeli passport stamps, although it does not issue visas to Israeli passport holders because Saudi Arabia doesn't recognize Israel. The Saudi embassy said that Israel doesn't grant visas to Saudi Arabians. Applicants for Saudi visas must specify Muslim or non-Muslim to determine who is granted access to the holy sites, the embassy said. CNN's Lisa Sylvester, Vivian Kuo and Marnie Hunter contributed to this report. |
