Muslim flight attendant files discrimination complaint against ExpressJet

Charee Stanley, a Muslim flight attendant with ExpressAir, is suing her employer for discrimination after claiming she was suspended for refusing to serve alcohol because of her religion. Stanley got her job at the airline three years ago before converting to Islam a year later.

However, she says she was suspended in August after a colleague complained, and has now launched a lawsuit. Lena Masri, an attorney for the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) in Michigan, said: 'She began coordinating with the other flight attendant on duty so that when a passenger requested alcohol, the other flight attendant would accommodate that request.'
