Norwegian airline swaps its logo for British Airways after losing bet

Norwegian Air has changed its Instagram profile picture to the British Airways logo after losing a friendly World Cup bet, following England's 2-1 win over Norway. The two airlines had agreed that whoever's nation lost the quarter-final would wear its rival's branding for a day, and Norwegian honoured it with an "it's coming home" post wishing England well. The playful wager went viral, with other airlines and thousands of fans joining the banter in the comments.
