That was the headline that reddit threw out at me. Had too many posts taken down for changing them that I just stuck with it. I should have posted an explanation in the comments though.

But it’s really good, assuming you’re referring to “Snuff.”

In response to what was happening to them or in general? Context matters. If you're pulling my rug out from under me, yeah, I'm gonna be Savage.

The first and only time I ever saw the northern lights, it was from the plane, a band of green stretched across the horizon. Was amazing.

Advertising for Heinz? Not very "uplifiting."

Agreed, if they pulled this crap with 1000 people and only 1 of them managed to claim an actual refund though the courts, even after legal fees, that's a win for BA.

Yes makes sense. Maybe something smaller then, like Irwin bridge or road to commemorate his efforts at conservationism.

There's more to the story of this ad than the problematic Italian Indian situation.
Keep America Beautiful, the nonprofit who made this ad, was started by beverage can manufacturers and gets lots of funding from other companies whose products become this litter: McDonalds, Coke, Pepsi, Nestle, Phillip Morris, etc
They have a long history of working against legislation that would make industry responsible for litter such as bottle return bills and shifting public opinion toward individual responsibility and thereby away from industry responsibility.

I love the idea that they would have just started abbreviating Bear Attack for this one article, sacrificing a ton of clicks by hiding the 2 most interesting words in the title behind an abbreviation no one knows.
That being said, my first thought was also Bear Attack due to the context.

She requested vouchers at a time when she thought travel could still occur in a timely manner, but at a time that was currently unknown - as she did still want to travel.
Once it became clear that travel to the destination could not be done in a timely manner she requested the refund as she is legally entitled to as BA could not deliver the sold service.
BA, taking a leaf out of the ‘legal shmegal!’ School of thought, declined.

That's phenomenal for a country with 67 million people. Great work, Britain!
