U.S Airways has made it to the top of the brand disasters’ list, with the most offensive tweet of all time.
US Airways, (accidently or not) tweeted an almost pornographic picture as a reply to one of its customers while asking for feedback.
The tweet became the laughing stock of the social media world within moments and also severely offended many customers who lashed out on the airline through their angry tweets.
The disastorous mishap was later removed from the brand’s official Twitter account and a formal apology was also posted by US Airways but unfortunately, the customers are still quite furious with the brand, as can be seen from their tweets stated below:
Sorry @USAirways I thought that was a DM #mybad

But you have to admit that it’s kinda hilarious that someone who does social media for an airline would be into Plane Porn™
