Hong Kong-based airline Cathay Pacific has been mocked on social media after the carrier misspelt its own name on the livery of the Boeing 777-367.

The typo was reportedly discovered by observers on the Hong Kong Aviation Discussion Board with photos showing the plane emblazoned with the name 'CATHAY PACIIC'.

In good humour, the airline joined in on the fun via Twitter.
