British Airways cuts Richard Branson out of in-flight movies

This is pathetic: British Airways cuts scenes showing rival aircraft and aviation execs out of its in-flight movies. Your ticket-price at work, folks.

Virgin boss Richard Branson appears briefly in the James Bond film Casino Royale.

However, British Airways passengers watching the film as an in-flight movie won't see Branson's brief appearance because BA has edited Branson out of the film, along with a shot of a Virgin Airways aircraft.

Commenting on the phantom edit a BA spokesman said "We do reserve the right to edit films, and many films are edited in some way on board."
