Overview

• Dominique Sellier, a passenger on an Air France flight in 2022, was asked to change seats because he was seated next to two unaccompanied minors.
• Air France's policy states that men should not be seated next to unaccompanied children to mitigate risks of potential aggression or trafficking.
• The Norwegian anti-discrimination tribunal ruled the policy discriminatory, rejecting Air France's justification based on statistical data about male criminality.
• Air France argued the tribunal lacked jurisdiction since the incident occurred on a plane not registered in Norway but did not comment further on the ruling.
• Sellier received no damages or formal apology from Air France, despite winning the case, and described the experience as humiliating.
