US Airways’ massive, pornographic social fail has the internet in stitches
This is just spectacularly bad…and also hilarious. US Airways has committed the social media blunder every community manager fears by tweeting out an extremely pornographic image to its 430 000 plus strong Twitter following.
The image (very NSFW) features a naked woman with a model plane, featuring the US Airways livery, inserted into her vagina and remained on the airline’s Twitter feed for about an hour.
The airline has since apologised, but is yet to provide any explanation as to why the image might have been allowed to go up in the first place.
We apologize for an inappropriate image recently shared as a link in one of our responses. We’ve removed the tweet and are investigating.

Naturally, the gaff resulted in some seriously funny responses on Twitter:
Dear @USAirways , I'm sending my resume as the position for the Social Media Manager is now open 🙂
(Next time, don't give it to interns)

It's been a bad day for US Airways, but a far worse day for the passengers on that flight.
