If this commercial is true they need to update their hiring minimums.
"Must speak 5 languages, have prior air force experience and have flown for the royal family"
Where I work we have some pilots that only speak 3 or 4 languages. Amatuers!

Hard to take this seriously. For anyone remotely associated with professional air travel to suggest that a duty pilot would handle alcohol; even once removed in the case of an outsourced ad agency...telltale sign this is satire, in the vein of the Dos Equis campaign, or even Trunk Monkey, Terry Tate, etc.
In that light, it’s almost funny.

The fact that it makes professional pilots tilt their heads with a puzzled look akin to the RCA dog means nothing to Madison Avenue types.
