Expedia Assisting Kuwait Airways’ Discrimination of Israelis

Kuwait Airways’ restriction on Israelis, already discriminatory, is repeatedly enabled by Expedia’s acquiescence to the airline's demand to cancel the tickets of passengers found to hold Israeli citizenship.
According to a letter sent to the leadership of Expedia by the Lawfare Project, a think-tank and pro-bono legal organization, Expedia has allowed Israeli passengers to purchase tickets with Kuwait Airways, and then repeatedly canceled these tickets after purchase, following the airline's instructions.
Yesterday, The Lawfare Project dispatched a letter to #Expedia Group CEO @MarkOkerstrom warning him of the potential consequences of continuing to facilitate #KuwaitAirways' policy of refusing to sell tickets to Israeli passport holders.

As a result of similar complaints against Kuwait Airways, the airline has already been forced to close multiple routes due to its policy breaching discrimination laws in both origin and destination countries, including a route to New York. Litigation is pending in Germany for the same reason.
