Nigerians can be extremely rude and conceited when traveling internationally. This uncouth villager conduct is a well-known phenomenon, among air crews in particular, so this woman is not making any claims that are not based on observable fact.

It is extremely rare to ever hear a "please" or "thank you" from passengers on flights in and out of Nigeria, when flight attendants serve passengers food and drinks, or respond to their passengers' numerous requests during the flight.

A typical exchange would be as follows.

Fat Nigerian passenger ( calling the flight attendant ) : Hsssssss. Hssssssss. Hssssssss.

Flight attendant : Yes, how can I help you sir ?

Fat Nigerian Passenger : Give me wine. I want to drink wine.

Flight attendant : Certainly, sir, just as soon as we are done serving lunch, I'll get you another glass of wine.

Fat Nigerian Passenger : I want to drink wine NOW. Give me wine.

2nd fat Nigerian passenger : Hssssssss. Hsssssssss. Hssssss.

Flight Attendant : Yes, how can I help you madam ?

2nd fat Nigerian passenger : Give me more food. This one is not enough.

Flight Attendant : When the rest of the passengers have eaten Madam, there might be some left over, and I will bring an extra serving over then.

2nd fat Nigerian passenger : I want more food now. Bring plenty food now.

The infantile, arrogant and rowdy behavior continues in the airport terminal. In London's Heathrow and Gatwick Airports, it is possible to locate the check-in desks for Nigerian-bound flights, simply by the sound of the hysterical screaming and shouting, as Nigerians abandon any semblance of civilized decorum, and grapple one another like wild beasts in full stampede mode, as they swarm the check-in desk by feverishly clambering over the heads of other passengers, while dragging 200 pounds of luggage and shrieking babies in tow.

Appart from the shrieking babies which I don't count as a negative, the rest of your narrative ( although not all are over weight) is 10000% true. Nigerians boarding is like a zoo gate swung open. I heard Chinese are worse tho. A Chinese pal of mine was lamenting. She said they fight a lot mid flight too grin grin

The British Airways stewardess behind a racist Snapchat rant against Nigerian passengers demanding 'f***ing upgrades' is an aspiring actress who hunted for male company on the Plenty of Fish dating website, MailOnline can reveal.

Joanne Wickenden, being investigated by the airline, described herself as a 'Princess' who likes a laugh as she boasted about her job as a flight attendant on the site.

The 23-year-old, a member of mixed fleet cabin crew, sparked outrage after recording the racist clip in her BA uniform before flying from London Heathrow to Abuja on Friday night.

Ms Wickenden, who is believed to have been suspended, refused to comment about the video at the home she shares with her mother and father in Fareham, Hampshire.

But a close friend defended the flight attendant and told MailOnline the film was recorded by a BA colleague, saying: 'She's not racist, it was a joke between two friends.

It wasn't meant to be racist.

She is not saying she dislikes Nigerians and she's not saying that anyone is better than anyone else.'





The friend continued:

'The other colleague just wanted her to impersonate what goes on on the flight.

Albeit it was an inappropriate comment to make.

She's very upset because now the whole world knows her face and thinks she's a racist.

'It's like someone had a vendetta [by releasing the video] instead of filing the complaint in a normal way.

'Everything is still up in the air at the moment because of the investigation'.

But a former school friend added: 'I was disgusted, it's so embarrassing.

She was renowned for making inappropriate jokes at school.'

The 5ft 11 in air hostess says she has been single for two years as she boasted about her job on Plenty of Fish.

'I'm a flight attendant living in Crawley.

I've been single for 2 years now and miss a bit of male company,' she wrote.

'I'm outgoing, like to have a laugh and enjoy socialising.

I'm the sort of person where the little things mean the most.

Trust is a must! If you would like to find out more then pop me a message.

A source told MailOnline that the video which was captioned 'I can't cope with this flight' was circulated among 'horrified' BA cabin crew who are 'very concerned'.

Another shocked staff member said BA should apologise to its Nigerian passengers.

The airline launched an investigation into the controversial footage.

In a statement the company said: 'We expect the utmost professionalism from our staff when they are representing British Airways.

We are investigating this video.'




In the expletive-filled footage, Ms Wickenden said:

'All Nigerians are going to be asking for f****** upgrades' after claiming the men would need more leg room in an apparent joke about the size of their privates.


During the one-minute clip she also revealed how she was going to deal with passengers on the six-hour flight.


She said: 'Alright, so all of yous are there getting ready for your Friday night, getting in the pre-drinks, you know, as you do.

'And I'm here, getting ready to go to work, put on a yellow life jacket, point out the exits, hand out chicken or beef, what sort of Friday night is this for me?

'The upside is I'm going to Nigeria and there's gonna be bare B**, I'm joking, I'm joking.

'All the Nigerians are gonna be there like 'gimme Coca Cola, gimme me beef, why you have no beef left? I want beef.'

'And I'm just gonna be there like, 'Sorry sir, we ran out of beef'.

'All the Nigerians are gonna be there asking for f****** upgrades because they haven't got enough leg room because their B**s are in their way.

Big d**** like this swinging from side to side.'


An airline source told MailOnline: 'My friend was horrified. BA has a culture of dealing with things like this internally, she passed it to me because she was concerned that nothing was done.'

I have watched the video several times today and i rather find it funny and hilarious. Those saying there were racist remarks in the videos should upgrade their sense of humor.

It's probably about brand and precedent. The later, for example,(Precedents) if not clamped down on, the employers (BA) know that it gives licence to others and the consequent casual remarks will worsen, become ever more derogatory and in future lead to somthing utterly indefensible and undeniably damaging to the image of the company
Re: I'm Not A Racist, It Was A Joke. British Airways Stewardess Responds(Photos) by ibinaboonline: 12:00am On Sep 27, 2017
A very important point in this is that the video had been shown to the people at BA but nothing was done until it was handed over to mailonline then they had the racist suspended. Believe it or not, BA may have just buried the whole thing if not for this leak. And I do believe a lot of Britons feel Just as much about Nigeria

I refuse to fly Iberia planes going to Nigeria because of the behaviour of the Nigerians on the flight. They keep asking for drinks and hide them in their hand luggage. I just put my head down in shame cos I was too embarrassed for them and they had no shame. They made so much noise on the flight and refused to sit down when instructed to by the flight attendants.
