Two members of British Airways cabin crew have been fired after they posted a racist video on Tik Tok mocking Asian passengers. The offensive clip was filmed by Holly Walton and Lauren Bray while they stayed at a luxury resort hotel in Antigua paid for by the airline, Metro reported.
In the video, the duo mocked a Chinese family who spoke little English and attempted to order drinks on a flight. Ms Walton was filmed making racist eye gestures and saying "Give me wine" in a Chinese accent. A caption on the video read: "2 weeks in a row with this d***head." The clip was filmed by Ms Bray, who has since disabled her Instagram account.
After the video was posted online, colleagues of the duo expressed their shock and disgust over the racist clip. One colleague said the women were "deliberately laughing" at the family which "sends out the worst message possible." Another Asian staff member said, ''I'm reeling from seeing this video. It makes me question the airline and my colleagues. Action has to be taken. We won't stand for it."
