JetBlue’s seat back entertainment map now displays the Palestinian territory in "significantly larger text" than Israel, overlaying much of what is internationally recognized as Israel. This change has raised concerns among some passengers and observers.
The airline recently stopped allowing flight attendants to wear unapproved pins, such as Palestinian flag pins, after an incident where a passenger was removed by police for questioning one such pin. However, the updated moving map seems to reflect a middle ground between recognizing Palestine and exclusively recognizing it.
According to the new map, "Israel’s northern border does not include the Golan Heights" and there is no clear division of the West Bank. Instead, much of what is typically acknowledged as Israel appears labeled as 'Palestine'.
