Every month, an airline printed advertisement, minus airline name and logo, is displayed for your guessing pleasure on Guess The Airline. The following is the answer to a previous game.
The number of people participating in this game are better than last month, for a first-time appearance on Guess The Airline. One can see that the motivation to guess it right was there. Once again, this was an advertisement published in the May 1995 issue of Frequent Flyer, the OAG magazine. Ready? Scroll down!

How to guess it?

This was a dead giveaway.
