    A QANTAS flight attendant allegedly made anti-Semitic remarks to a Jewish passenger on a flight to Australia.

    Sydney executive David Moses has lodged a complaint with the airline, alleging the woman repeatedly made derogatory comments about Jews, even after discovering that Mr Moses was Jewish.

    The 35-year-old businessman told The Sunday Telegraph he had never experienced such "extremely offensive" racism.

    He said the steward had complained to him about an elderly French passenger who had become agitated over the provision of a wheelchair for her husband on arrival.

    Mr Moses said the attendant had turned to him and said "Jews".

    When he asked what she meant, she had replied: "That's what you get when you deal with Jews."
