An airline has taken a dig at Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle over a claim from the Duke of Sussex's new memoir Spare.
In the tell-all book, Harry alleged that Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, purchased a ticket for her father, Thomas Markle, from Mexico to the UK so he could better avoid press intrusion.

Detailing the incident, Prince Harry recalled: "We told him, leave Mexico right now: A whole new level of harassment is about to rain down on you, so come to Britain. Now."
Air New Zealand has denied that Thomas flew first-class from Mexico to the UK through their airline, as such a flight doesn't exist.

The airline has now joked about the Sussexes on its Twitter account, with a tweet making reference to the apparent inaccuracy. The tweet reads: "Introducing #SussexClass. Apparently coming soon."

Another commented: "How unprofessional," and a third joked: "And the amenities bag includes a tube of Elizabeth Arden cream. Oh yes, and an extra spare."
