Ladies and gentleman welcome to Gatwick.... I think!

Post by boff180 »

This as a prank is genius!
Air passengers have been left panicked and confused after a "Welcome to Luton" sign appeared near Gatwick Airport.

The 60m (197ft) sign is visible on the approach to Gatwick - which is about 60 miles south of Luton.

Abbey Desmond, from Great Dunmow, Essex, said when she spotted it out of the window on landing it left her in a "state of panic".

I think the correct response is: No,you'rewelcome to Luton!

I can imagine anyone panicking at the thought of arriving at Luton - who wouldn't :smiley:
