Delta changes uniform policy following flap over flight attendants with Palestinian pins
==========
Delta Air Lines is changing its uniform policy to no longer allow employees to wear pins representing countries or nationalities other than the U.S. This change comes after a viral social media post about Palestinian pins worn by Delta flight attendants sparked controversy. The post raised concerns about the pins being referred to as 'Hamas badges,' but many users pointed out that they were actually the Palestinian flag. Delta initially responded to the post but later deleted their reply, apologizing for the 'hurtful' post and vowing to strive for inclusivity and respect. The airline clarified that neither employee was fired and that they were compliant with Delta uniform guidelines. The Delta employee who authored the reply has been counseled and no longer supports Delta's social channels.
