The UK"s Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) has released an "inclusive language guide" that advises against the use of the term "stewardess," labeling it as offensive. The guide recommends that the term be replaced with "attendant." This initiative is part of the CAA"s efforts to promote inclusive language within the aviation industry.
The announcement comes as part of a broader movement towards inclusivity and sensitivity in language, reflecting changing societal norms. The CAA"s guide aims to provide clarity and guidance for airlines and aviation professionals on appropriate terminology.
As previously reported, similar discussions around language and inclusivity have emerged in various sectors, highlighting the ongoing evolution of language in response to cultural shifts.
