North Korea's national carrier Air Koryo, which has the lowest airline rating on Skytrax, has discovered the Internet. 
The state-owned company -- regarded by some as the "world's worst airline" -- recently launched a bilingual website (www.airkoryo.com.kp) to provide travelers with "easier, quicker, reliable booking and ticketing services," according to Air Koryo. Air Koryo's new ticket booking system reinforces the company's less-than-brilliant reputation.

    I was so certain “airline” was a metaphorical reference to our government.
