Alaska Airlines Opts To Stop Handing Out Prayer Cards

For the past three decades, Alaska Airlines has handed out prayer cards imprinted with Bible verses with meals.

If you hadn’t noticed the prayer cards recently, that’s probably because you weren’t flying first class. The airline stopped serving meals in coach six years ago. [More]
