An airline has had to send a new plane back to the paint shop after the company’s name was spelled incorrectly on it.<\/p>\n

Hong Kong-based Cathay Pacific painted its name as “Cathay Paciic” on the side of the jet.<\/p>\n

Eagle-eyed travellers spotted the mistake at Hong Kong International Airport and contacted the airline.<\/p>\n

“Oops this special livery won’t last long! She’s going back to the shop!” the company joked on Twitter.<\/p>\n

The airline said it was a genuine mistake, although some in the industry said it was inexplicable.<\/p>\n

“The spacing is too on-point for a mishap,” an engineer for Haeco, a sister company of the airline, told the South China Morning Post<\/a>. <\/p>\n

“There should be a blank gap in between letters if it was a real mistake I think.”<\/p>\n

Social media users saw the funny side, however.<\/p>\n
