The staff on board were rude, unhelpful and racist. The poor woman sitting next to me was yelled at because she asked for some water. It was poured into a plastic cup before she had the time to specify that she wanted it without ice. Because she was an Asian woman, the staff literately yelled at (as in voice raised to high level) and a male flight attendant told her that next time, she must say “no ice.” He mocked her while doing it and repeated the words few times to “teach” her "the words in English" and then said “understand?” The audacity of these people is unbelievable. There was blatant racism as I felt that they treated their Asian customers significantly worse than their Caucasian counterparts. In addition to the unacceptable racism, the staff scolded a few other customers and told them to stay where they were because they were “not in first class” and that they “had to wait" for any service. Basically, what I witnessed was staff bullying their Asian (perhaps other minority) customers and I was particularly disheartened to see that the Asian staff members treated the Asian customers the worst. Continental Airlines has a history of ignoring their customers’complaints. However, I am compelled to make it known that blatant racism existed on my flight and perhaps all their other flights as well.

Right on the washroom and halfway in the coridor. You pay a lot of money to fly next to the potty for long stretches. Try flight Co83 from New Delhi to Newark close to 15 hours. Miserable.
