A tribunal has dismissed a cabin crew boss's claim that she was forced to employ only young, slim, single women to crew private aircraft.
Alexandria Proud, 35, from London, claimed unfair constructive dismissal by charter aircraft firm Gama Aviation.
Miss Proud claimed she was told not to employ male flight attendants by an aircraft owner, who said they were gay.
The firm denied the "unfair, untrue and not credible" allegations. The tribunal found no evidence of such a policy.
