DALLAS, Texas (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – American Airlines (AA) accidently sent the wrong plane across the ocean from Los Angeles to Hawaii, a company spokesman confirmed to AFP Sunday.

In the August 31 incident first reported by transportation blogger Brian Sumers, the plane made it safely to Honolulu despite the error.

American Airlines spokesman Casey Norton said they were still looking into how the mix-up happened.

It appears that AA flight crew assigned to the flight from Los Angeles to Honolulu boarded the wrong plane. The pilots realized the error two hours into the flight while over the Pacific Ocean but decided to continue on to Hawaii.

They were flying a United Airlines plane!
