A few days ago British Airways found itself at the centre of a bit of an admin fiasco.
That’s when a flight that was supposed to go from London to Dusseldorf ended up landing in Edinburgh instead!
The Poke shared the moment that Simon McCoy tried to keep it together as he reported it.

Then Ryanair decided to have a go:
Hey @British_Airways, we have a present for you 👀 pic.twitter.com/m3K9ZNk0Ew

Now, now. No one is perfect. Lolly

But they would'nt let it lie!
True, Lolly! Even we wouldn’t flog Edinburgh as Germany #DusseldorfNorth 🏴🇩🇪

Then...the internet hounds were unleashed:
I remember the time you dropped me in Vienna after telling me we were meant to be landing in Bratislava... The flight was meant to go to Budapest.

May I remind @Ryanair of the flight FR8582 from London to Thessaloniki, Greece, that landed to Timisoara, Romania (500 miles and 2 international frontiers from its supposed destination). Perhaps, you could read 'Geography for Dummies' first...
