„Air France is facing a rebellion from gay air stewards – who are refusing to fly on a new route to Iran. The company is launching a new route from Paris to Tehran, the capital of the reclusive state, with flights set to begin on April 17. … But gay staffers are now also rebelling against the route, as Iran continues to enforce the death penalty for homosexuality. Laurent, a gay air steward, started a petition against the route that has attracted nearly 2000 supporters. He urged the company to ‚grant gay crew members the right to refuse to go to a country where they could be killed for who they are‘. … According to The Local, the Unac union says it is hopeful the opt-out will be extended ‚for the entire aircrew, regardless of their gender or sexual orientation‘.“ (Bericht auf der Website PinkNews: „Air France faces revolt from gay cabin crew over flights to Iran“)
