London Telegraph Profiles Prof. Vaaler's New Research on Customer Discrimination by International Airlines from the Middle East

The London Telegraph newspaper profiled Professor Paul Vaaler's new study of international airlines from the Middle East with online route maps that omit Israel and online menu offerings that omit kosher meal options. Vaaler and co-author Joel Waldfogel, an affiliated faculty member of the Law School, document that such map and menu omissions are more likely for international airlines with more anti-Semitic likely customer preferences and owner tastes. Two such airlines, Saudia Arabia's Saudia Airlines and Lebanon's Middle East Airlines, are members of the SkyTeam Alliance led by Delta Airlines.
