**UPDATE 26th October 2022: Privilege Style has confirmed it will NOT operate any further deportations flights to Rwanda. That's three of our target airlines, and three more to go. With Suella Braverman just re-appointed as Home Secretary it's time to redouble our efforts to put an end the the cruel Rwanda policy -- and all unjust deportations. Tweet or email the charter airlines now!**
**URGENT update 3rd September 2022: The government is actively planning another deportation flight to Rwanda. Call on the charter airlines not operate it via email, or tweet**
A handful of charter airlines still facilitate Priti Patel’s cruel forced deportations -- because they think they can get away with it.
Public outcry has forced Virgin Atlantic, Tui, and American Airlines to step back from supporting unjust immigration policies. Together we can make the companies that took their place follow suit.
With public disgust at this government’s Rwanda policy all over the media, now is the time to show these airlines -- and their corporate and business clients -- that we won’t tolerate their complicity with cruelty.
Four of the government’s deportation charters of choice are based in Spain and Portugal, so they think they can keep profiteering without any risk to their reputations. But they didn’t think about the combined power of SumOfUs members from the UK, Spain & Portugal coming together.
Tell Privilege Style, HiFly, Iberojet, Wamos, AirTanker, Titan airlines and their corporate clients & customers to stop doing business with deportation.
