British Airways has been criticised for using the Argentinian name of the Falkland Islands’ capital on its in-flight screens.

Port Stanley is shown as “Puerto Argentino”, with the British name in brackets underneath.

The move by the airline has been described as “disgraceful” and “disrespectful” to soldiers who fought to liberate the islands in the South Atlantic in the Falklands War.

British Airways said it was now reviewing the incident with the provider of its in-flight map service.
