A passenger on board an Air Canada flight on Monday noticed "Palestinian Territory" was written on the plane's map system on their personal screen instead of Israel, N12 reported on Tuesday.
"A passenger snapped this photo on an Air Canada flight from Vancouver to Toronto today, showing that the airline's map no longer includes Israel," a pro-Israel account posted on X. "@aircanada Care To Explain?"
Several pro-Israel accounts responded to the post and slammed the airline for the map.
"Canada is now part of the great Islamic caliphate," one account wrote. " That's what Canadians wanted and that's exactly what they got."
Several pro-Palestinian accounts responded as well and called for the airline to keep the Palestinian Territories on the map.
Air Canada's response
Air Canada responded in the Twitter thread and said that a third party operates the map system.
"Air Canada has been made aware of a display issue with the interactive map on the IFE systems of its B737 aircraft," the airline's X/Twitter account responded.
"The issue has affected other carriers using the same system, and we are working with the third-party provider on a remedy."
This isn't the first time an airline has dealt with a situation similar to this.
Low-cost Irish carrier Ryanair caused a stir when it was revealed that when customers order a flight on the company's website, there was an option to choose "Occupied Palestinian Territory" when putting in their personal details.
