"Welcome Aboard This Flight to Glasgow. Will All Smokers Kindly Extinguish Their Personal Freedom."
Abstract
This hysterical advertisment against British Airways (authored by the Tobacco Advisory Council, an organization similar to the Tobacco Institute in the U.S.) was concocted in 1988 after the airline banned smoking on short flights.
The headline of the ad announces, "British Airways Grounds All Smokers."
The tag line states,
"Yesterday, seat belts. Today, strait jackets. Where on earth will Britians smokers be tomorrow?"
