British Airways Free Flight Hoax

June 2003

Come on people. No one is going to give you a free flight on an airline
for forwarding an e-mail to 5 people.

Subject: FREE flight

I thought this was bollocks, but they got back to me within a
week!!!!!!!!

I contacted the London BA office - THIS IS REAL!!!!!!

Due to the SARS and the recent war in Iraq, the number of passengers
flying world-wide has fallen dramatically. We at British Airways have
launched an international media campaign which aims to fill our aircraft
once again. A part of this campaign is direct email advertising. This is
where YOU come in!

British Airways, along with Microsoft are tracking this email, and for
every 5 people you forward this to, you will receive a flight to London
return from any destination in the world (if your in the UK, you can fly
to any Asian destination return). Send this email to 10 people and you
are eligible to fly ANYWHERE in the world return to your depature point!
Simple as that!

However, that only catch is you MUST travel BEFORE 31st October 2003.

You will be contacted via email within 5 working days for your full
contact and booking details.

Note: one flight per person only.
