Haredim negotiate for mehadrin El Al flights | Jewish News | Jerusalem Post
Yup, because we just can't stand that someone else on the plane eats lower on the food chain than Glatt Kosher, or women with less fabric than a burqa, or women in general, or anything like a reminder of the modern world in which they coexist. Shtetle in the sky...
The gender separation would include male flight attendants for haredi male travelers. Haredi females would be served by both male and female flight attendants.
Yup, I'm sure those prissy little men are so much better off without scary women serving them meals. So why do the women have to suffer male flight attendants?
I love this.
Last year El Al and the Council for the Sanctity of the Shabbat, which is controlled by the Ger Hassidic Sect, reached an agreement according to which El Al planes would refrain from flying on Shabbat.
Does that mean they fall out of the air when they cross a date line?
You know, the Japanese capsule hotel idea needs to be extended to flying. Each person in a capsule, wearing a mask providing air, and the space between their body and the capsule filled with expanding foam. The capsules are loaded into cradles in the cargo jet, and they are hit with nitrous oxide and subjected to random shiurim on the headphones for the duration. WHEEEEEE!!!
Ten hours later, touch down and unloading. Never having seen a female or been exposed to anything. In fact, we can start with airline branded blindfolds and black velvet hoods and gloves to ensure that there is not the slightest chance of contact by eye or skin with someone not righteous enough to enter their world much less women.
And people think I'm wrong when I saw that charedi Orthodoxy is going to drag the rest of it into disrepute through extremism. If you don't think so, consider how any truly liberal Muslim feels every time they pick up a newspaper. Every average Jew will get that feeling more and more as this sort of vicious idiocy continues. What a desecration of G-d it is to run from His works.
