Twitter A graphic image appear in US Airways official twitter feed while responding to a customer’s complaint about sitting on the runway for an hour. “Inappropriate” doesn’t begin to cover it.
A shockingly graphic tweet by U.S. Airways featuring a woman and an airplane has led to an investigation and red-faced apology by the airline.
A photo of a naked woman lying exposed on a bed with a toy plane between her legs was publicly shared by the airline late Monday afternoon while responding to disgruntled customers, angry about a recent flight delay.
The extremely graphic image sent to one Twitter user, came with the caption: “We welcome feedback, Elle. If your travel is complete, you can detail it here for review and follow-up.”
Instead of a link matching that description, however, it was a link to the photo.
“@USAirways that was not appropriate at all lol” one of two Twitter users — who previously asked for “some free stuff” for her delay — responded to the direct tweet.
It was soon after deleted on the airlines’ twitter feed before replaced with an apology.
“We apologize for an inappropriate image recently shared as a link in one of our responses. We’ve removed the tweet and are investigating,” it read.
