Delta Air Lines and KLM Royal Dutch Airlines were slapped with a civil rights lawsuit Tuesday in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York.

The lawsuit was filed by Herrick Feinstein LLP on behalf of 19 Hasidic Jewish women who contend that they were subjected to religious-based discrimination, harassment and barred from traveling on connecting flights from Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam, Netherlands back to Kennedy International Airport in New York City.
