I would ask if the in-flight movie is in English or at least subtitled. Even if the movie wasn’t in English, I’m sure that there would be no end to the entertainment on the flight. I would get plenty of laughs at the ignorant passengers who are getting all nervous just because of the race of the crew. I’d make comments to them like, ‘did you notice something weird about the crew for the flight?’ Then, after a pause, I would say, ‘None of them are wearing green shoes! Weird.’
I didn’t read any of the answers above mine, but I’m sure that some of them were unkind to our Arab friends. Those people are in dire need of a more global perspective. Ask an Arab, in the wake of 9/11 ‘What would you do if you got on a plane and the whole crew was American?’ what would he say? For my money, he would probably say ‘Panic.’ Why? Because Americans are known the world over for being bigoted and possessing a boundless capacity to generalize and stigmatize anything that they are unfamiliar with.
Congratulations to the asker, you are exposing us for the bigots we truly are. If you don’t like what I am saying, then change for the better!

Dont fly on Kuwait Airlines because thats what you'll have. Conversely, watch out for other Arab owned and operated local and international airways i. e, Saudi, Pakistan, Afghan, Emirates, Gulf Air, Egypt Air (1 of there pilots has already crashed a plane) not forgetting smaller airways that also shuttle people all round the gulf, into and around Africa, and airlines with crews operating worldwide with predominately Arab pilots and crews. No escaping it - the ragheads are everywhere1

Find my seat, stowe my carry on luggage, and then get comfy for the trip.
It just might happen if you fly to that region of the globe, and you fly an airline that is not from the US.
Allowing such paranoia to dictate your life is silly - that is what the terrorists WANT.

There are many Arab owned companies where the pilot and the crews are Arabs (gulf air, emirates etc.). Emirates earned many prestigious awards few years in a row so I'm not sure what is your point.

You mean if I were flying from the UAE on Emirates, what would I do?
Enjoy the champagne and the attractiveness of the female flight attendants - just like always!
My advice is "Party on, Dude!"

I'd have my tray table in the upright and locked position, my seat belt fastened and my seat back in the upright position during take-off and landing.
I would feel free to move about the cabin when the captain turned off the seat belt light.

i lived in the middle east and flew gulf air, saudia, and egyptair all the time. and sometimes on the way back to the states, i would fly british airways through london and some of the flight attendants on the bahrain-london leg were arab. you needn't worry, only a tiny minority of arabs are terrorist who are willing to blow up themselves in the name of a misguided cause. the average arab is quite amicable.

I would do nothing different than I would with a non-Arab flight crew because it would not make a difference.
