Does the P.C. stand for "politically correct?"

The Sydney Morning Herald has reported that P.C. Air, a Thai airline startup, is making a point to hire transsexual flight attendants. The airline has recruited six so far and plans to look for more.

"I think these people can have many careers, not just in the entertainment business, and many of them have a dream to be an air hostess. I just made their dream come true," airline executive Peter Chan told the Herald.

If you’re in the business of making peoples’ dreams come true, you’re doing a great job, Pete. But if you’re supposed to be safeguarding your investors’ money and returning some kind of equity on their stock, the jury is out. We’ll have to wait and see if the flying public is ready for transsexual flight attendants.

Katoys on the run LOL.

This is all about publicity for (underage boy) sex tourism to Thailand.

This is where pedophiles go to “vacation” and advertising that fact is all this airline is about.

Eddie Murphy is going to be made spokesman.

How you gonna know?

Who gives a rat's turd if the flight attendants are male, female, gay, straight, caucasian, black, asian, transexual, bisexual, or whatever.
Get passengers safely to their destinations, at reasonable cost, in comfort, and without losing luggage.
That is what the flying public seeks from the airlines. Nothing more, nothing less. The notion of specifically seeking transexual flight attendants seems silly.

It’s a trap!

The lavender mafia discriminates and celebrates about it.

Nambla members are going to Thailand to Bangkok.

Number 2 is kinda cute (comparatively speaking)

This will make for some interesting TSA pat-down conversation.

Makes business sense. The preponderance of visitors to Thailand are perverted sex tourists. I know, I know, you do legit business there or you enjoy the ancient ruin sites. Save it for your priest. Phucket on your passport.
