After 30 years of giving passengers prayer cards with their meals, Alaska Airlines notified customers via email they would end the practice next week.
“Religious beliefs are deeply personal and sharing them with others is an individual choice,” according to Wednesday’s email, signed by airline CEO Bill Ayer and President Brad Tilden.
The cards, which feature excerpts from the Old Testament, have always received mixed reviews from customers. The feedback had been mostly positive until a shift in public opinion in recent years.
