Tituss Burgess Is Hosting Fully LGBTQ-Staffed Flight for World Pride

Virgin Atlantic has created a flight from London to New York City that will be fully staffed by LGBTQ+ pilots and cabin crew. And the best part? The MC of the flight will be none other than Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt’s Tituss Burgess.

The one-time flight will also feature on-board entertainment including a DJ, drag queen bingo, a Judy Garland singalong, and inter-seat speed dating. It’s the ultimate kiki 40,000 feet in the sky!

This is all in honor of World Pride, which will be hosted in New York City in June of 2019. Pride will also mark the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots, and is expected to bring in over 3 million people from countries around the world.

“At a time when we’re seeing the rights of minority groups under threat, it is more important than ever we stand up and make our voices heard,” Burgess said in a statement.

He continued:

“The LGBT+ community has made enormous strides over the last 50 years, and I’m so proud to partner with Virgin Holidays and Virgin Atlantic to mark this occasion in style and celebrate the hard-won freedoms from those who came before us.”
