SHOCK: Flight Crew Member Heading to Israel Repeatedly Says ‘Approaching Palestine’

ISRAEL (VINnews) — A flight attendant on a Ryanair flight to Tel Aviv repeatedly described their destination as Palestine, according to witnesses.

Shocked Israeli passengers, traveling from Italy to Ben Gurion, told Channel 14 News that the flight attendant said they were bound for Palestine multiple times, in both Italian and English.

Shortly before the plane was set to touch down, the attendant announced over the intercom that they were “approaching Palestine.”

Some passengers reportedly spoke up and asked her to either correct herself or apologize. Their requests were shot down, and stunningly, the crew accused the passengers of creating a disturbance that endangered the safety of the flight.

“We didn’t [buy tickets] on the airline to deal with anti-Zionist opinions [from flight staff],” a passenger said. “All we wanted was [an announcement] that Tel Aviv is in Israel.”

One passenger who tried to take a picture of the attendant, was told that she would be arrested upon landing if she left her seat.

“It is wholly unacceptable that on a flight from Italy to Tel Aviv, a member of Ryanair staff would repeatedly broadcast their own political ideology over the facts by stating that the flight in question was landing in Palestine, rather than in Israel,” said Jackie Goodall, executive director of the Ireland Israel Alliance, according to World Israel News.

According to Channel 14, Ryanair, headquartered in Ireland, refused to respond to multiple requests for comment.
