Air India sacks 10 air hostesses for being overweight
As the Times of India reports:
“For an 18-year-old air hostess with a height of 152 cm, the maximum weight permissible is 50 kg, while for air hostesses in the age group of 26 to 30 and a height of 152 cm, the weight limit is 56 kg.”
So, for a woman who is about 5 feet, the maximum weight to be an Air India hostess would be 110-123 pounds?!
