Airline takes a sly dig at Prince Harry, after Meghan’s first-class flight claims

• Prince Harry claimed Meghan purchased a first-class ticket from Mexico to the UK.
• Air New Zealand has denied that such a flight could have taken place.
• The airline has launched a scathing attack on Harry and Meghan via its Twitter account.

An airline has mocked Prince Harry for claiming his wife Meghan purchased a first-class ticket from Mexico to the UK for her father Thomas Markle in order for him to avoid press intrusion.

In his new memoir Spare, the Duke of Sussex alleged that the Duchess had purchased a ticket for her father through Air New Zealand, adding that it was ‘first class, booked and paid for by Meg’.

In recounting the incident, Prince Harry stated: “We told him, leave Mexico right now: A whole new level of harassment is about to rain down on you, so come to Britain. Now.”

Air New Zealand has now denied that Thomas could have flown from Mexico to the United Kingdom via their airline, claiming that such a flight does not exist.

Air New Zealand made the following statement to the New Zealand Herald: “We’ve never had flights between Mexico and the UK. And we only have Business Premier.”

The airline has now launched a scathing attack on Harry and Meghan via its Twitter account, with a tweet criticising the alleged inaccuracy.

The following is the tweet: “Introducing #SussexClass. Apparently coming soon.”

The tweet received a mixed response. While some declared they ‘loved’ the dig, making numerous puns about ‘spare’ seats, others regarded it as simply ‘petty’.

One person responded:”Wow, I had a really good impression of Air New Zealand until seeing this. Surprisingly petty. Gross.”
“How unprofessional,” one person said.

A third joke: “The amenities bag also includes a tube of Elizabeth Arden cream. Oh, and a spare.”
