Queen Sofía Is Just Like Us! She Flies Low Cost

Low-cost airline Ryanair (yes, the same airline that is asking us to pay for using the loo) is somehow pissed at Queen Sofía of Spain after she and her Royal entourage managed to scrap a Ryanair print ad featuring the Queen herself….The reason?

Ryanair found out Queen Sofía recently booked a £13 (15 euros) Ryanair flight to England to visit her sick brother, so the company promptly released an advertisement featuring the Queen herself and the -aptly- tagline: Fly like a monarch, something the Queen didn’t find funny at all, though this blogger thought it was, like, great. The best slogan. Ever.

The implied joke, of course, was that the Queen is cheap, so Ryanair ultimately agreed to withdraw the ad.

Come on! Can’t our royalty also save some bucks amid this economic mess?
