Employees aboard Air Canada flights will no longer greet guests by referring to them as "ladies and gentlemen" or "mesdames et messieurs," which has been typical protocol for years, in an effort to be conscious of gender fluidity.

Flight attendants and other staff will not use the language in boarding announcements, and the company instead plans to replace the standard greetings with neutral words, such as "everybody" or "tout le monde."


quote:

"We will be amending our onboard announcements to modernize them and remove specific references to gender," a media spokesperson for the company said

There are very few true ladies or gentlemen anyway.

They should be tolerant and say “Ladies and Gentleman, freaks and clowns, lesbians and gays, transgenders and bisexuals, mentally retards, idiots and smart people, smelly people, little children with crappy parents, fats arses, skinny losers, dogs and cats, emotional nutcases and morons, welcome aboard”. Then I would be less offended.

I don't know any TQ people IRL, so maybe one here can chime in. But any of them really offended when they hear "ladies and gentlemen"? Or is this a case of companies doing shite they don't need to?
Virtue signaling?

JetBlue has started telling their FA's and pilots to no longer use gender pronouns in their announcements as well.

"Everybody" is quicker to say than "ladies and gentlemen" and I'm down for whatever makes those in-flight safety announcements go faster.

Good to hear this. Because as I've been told repeatedly by the Alphabet People and the People's Blue Checkmark Army...

Misgendering is VIOLENCE.
