  • Nasty Nicknames for Airlines

    Anyone get any less than complementary nicknames for airlines?

    I often have heard of Northworst, and there are many variations on the the theme of Air/Scare, the latest in my repitoire being Scariana Afghan Airlines.

    This is not a nickname but more of a slogan.

    Air India: We pack you in like cattle.

    or

    Air India: We love to treat people like cattle.

    The last one was used in a Simpsons episode!!!

          They used to joke it was called Canada 3000 because that was how many people they tried to jam into their planes. :P
