Osama Bin Laden gets boarding pass from British Airways

LHR News is a British Airways staff magazine covering London's Heathrow Airport.

The magazine did a cover story about a new service allowing passengers to download paperless boarding passes to their iPhones.

Only problem was, a close-up of the cover photo shows a white boarding pass bearing the name “Bin Laden/Osama.”


The boarding pass is thought to be the work of a disgruntled employee or former employee.

British Airways is currently in the middle of a prolonged labor dispute with some of its unions so the disgruntled employee theory is quite plausible.
