“SAS Scandinavian Airlines have become the first European airline to demonstrate their commitment to the gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender/transsexual market with a dedicated gay website. The website is unique in its personalised aspect, providing a ‘gay’ counterpart to the popular SAS crew tips, offering tips from SAS’ own gay crew members on the best offerings in Stockholm and Copenhagen.” [e-Travel]

I really hate it when people say GLBT when they really only mean “gay men”. Predictably, there’s a whole passel of stuff for gay men and a tiny blurb or two for lesbians. More predictably, the rest of the acronym gets bupkis.
A for effort, D- for execution.

Great! the European Nations are always at the forefront of modernity especially the Scandinavians. Too bad GLBT advances might end up being eroded in the future if they keep granting asylum to Iranians, people
from the Middle east and Muslims in general.

Excuse me, what is the point of this? When I get into an aeroplane, I get in as a human being, no different from any other human being. I do not think my sexuality is in any way relevant (okay, so maybe that’s why I’ve never joined the mile-high club….)

Andy, SAS is co-sponsoring next summer the World Out Games 2009, with Copenhagen hosting the games, the Danes are expecting gays from around the globe to fly in en masse. This is particularly significant since Denmark, I believe was the first country in the world to recognise same sex marriage in the 80’s. So there, BEELZEBAB, you can be even prouder of yet another european achievement. I’ll be proud of their humanity!!
