BEA
I thought "back each afternoon" was a better description for the domestic side of things.
|
Then there was:
Such an Awful Bloody Experience Never Again YS:E |
And Lufthansa?
Let Us :mad: The Hosties And Not Say Anything! |
Been over at Cartierville.
|
Apologies to Alitalia.
"All ladies in transit always leave in agony". As for Qantas..... Surely BOAC means "Better off at Caledonian". Ciarain. |
I remember BOAC's advertising slogan, "It's quicker by BOAC" that was bowdlerized to "It's quicker by BOAT"

BWIA - But Will It Arrive?
TWA - Try Walking Across. PIA - Please Inform Allah. UAA - Use Another Airline. |
When I worked there it was knows a British Overstaffed Airways Corporation.
Then it was rolled up with those grammar school and secondary modern oiks from BEA and it was never the same |
BWIA?
Britain's Worst Investment Abroad!! |

PAL - Plane Always Late
PWA - Please Wait Awhile Trans Texas Airways - Tree Top Airlines or Tinker Toy Arlines When Trans-Texas Airways changed its name to Texas International Airlines, the company ran newspaper ads showing a Tinker Toy airplane flying along treetops. The copy read "No More Tinker Toys. No More Treetops. We are now Texas International Airlines." |
"As for Qantas"-
Well. The politically incorrect ones can't be published But- Quite A Nice Trip, All Survived |
Quote:
PAL - Plane Always Late but on the rare occasions it wasn't: PAL - Punctual At Last |
TWA - Teeny Weeny Airways.
Also applied to the RAF's 152 Squadron who flew Pembrokes's and an Andover whilst based in Bahrain in the late 60's |
