'If they order a Muslim or kosher meal, you already start to know a little bit about that person,' Swiss airline tells border security conference
In-flight meal choices of international passengers could be a potential profiling tool for national authorities, a senior airline manager has told border officials.
Marina Ripa-Braescu, the facilitation and security manager for Swiss International Air Lines, told a conference on border security in Hungary last week that information about pre-ordered meals could be used to help governments find out more about those travelling to the country before they arrive.
I don't know whether to laugh or cry. How do such people land up with such plum jobs?
So better watch out the next time you pre-order Halal meals on (Swiss) airlines.
