But Asian Spirit changed the name and is called now ZEST Airways. Anybody has an idea for an acronym?

[ZephyrStar]

Yes, but even with the name change, Zest managed to have an accident at Caticlan Airport in Boracay a year and some ago. So the only thing I can think of – it’s corny but here goes: Zeriously Endangered Safe Travel.
Oh well, I tried…can you think of any?

Zombies in Engines and Safety in Tatters?

I figure zombies are trendy so…I went with it.

Uh….someone can surely out-do me on this one.

It used to be said that Garuda stood for Good Airline Run Under Dutch Administration.

Also, I heard that they are introducing First class in their new Boeing 777-300ER next year. but, I don’t know if its correct or wrong.

JAL – Junk Airline Losers
JAL – Just Another Loser

Maybe can tell just had a really bad experience with JAL could not believe the lies I was told and how much it cost me to get a flight with them after they cancelled my original ticket with no contact, despicable behaviour no respect for customers, will NEVER use them again

Two of my old favourites were ..

BEA = Back Every Afternoon
BOAC = Better On A Camel -or- with reference to the Profumo Affair Bend Over Again Christine!!

[Speedbird1994]

One of my favourites was the old BAE146s. Because of the unreliability of the Honeywell engines, and the fact the plane had 4 of them, BEA was said to stand for ‘Bring Another Engine’.

Interesting to see a thread revived after 9 years!!

How about:

Aer Lingus: Always Laudable

Ryanair: Really You Are Nuts: Avoid, It’s Rehensible
