What would you think if this morning you read on the Ryanair website a message titled "Ryanair reports UFO Aviation Authorities"? An hoax? A mirage? Too much alcohol on those northern airlines?
These may have been just some of the thoughts that have plagued all journalists,bloggers, fans of UFOs or simple network users who first read the official message of the company. A press release in fact appeared on the website, and quickly ciruclated throughout the web, telling about how the captain of the flight FR1297 from London Gatwick to Oslo Torp had reported, after passengers released shocking images taken onboard the aircraft, the presence of an Unidentified Flying Object some 200km south of Oslo.
To read the whole release was the only way to make clear this curious affair. Observing the infamous picture, you could immediately understand how the UFO picture was actually the shape of Santa's sleigh and the whole story was just an unconventional way used by Ryanair to wish you a Merry Christmas.
As we write, this viral greeting card is already infecting the entire network, changing from person to person, like all urban legends: in Italy, for example, they say the flight from Oslo wasn't heading to Gatwick but Milan (Orio al Serio). And you? Are you already infected?
