British Airways ad -- Boarding Pass ... Bin Laden/Osama (pic)

The beleaguered British carrier is in damage control today as it tries to explain how a photograph of a fake boarding pass made out in the name of Osama bin Laden came to be published in one of its magazines.

The photo was published in LHR News, an internal company magazine covering London's Heathrow Airport and first reported by Gadling.com, an AOL-owned travel news website.

A British Airways spokeswoman told ABC News that "A mistake has been made in this internal publication and we are working to find out how this occurred".


According to the boarding pass, Mr Bin Laden flies in First class, and has a frequent flier number with Northwest Airlines. Sadly, knowing the brilliant minds behind the anti-terror organizations, the terror level will be raised to "red hot" on October 26 2010 while airport police all around the world try to figure out which airport the most wanted terrorist in the world will be flying to
