it depends on the airline and length of the trip.
i used to fly to NY literally every three to four months and because it's only like 1 hour and 30 minutes i would only get snacks, a soda and a coffee. tongue but no seconds! angry

plus the planes were rather small so babies had to remain with their parents even when going to the bathroom. the only time i've seen a child being "babysat" is when they were traveling alone.

other than that the list is pretty accurate.

there's no need for a parachute during turbulence, u need a barfbag! And there's no need to try and form dt u board plane every now and then. Some of us dnt need to. At least not for now. So, stop d nonense!

Now that must be years ago or an outright lie. Aero does not serve nothing anymore, except of course you flew first class. If you need anything on board, you pay for it. But like I said, when I was compelled to fly business class, they served us with some mini chop chop

I was on an aero Lagos bound flight from Abuja in April and we were served snacks nd drinks onboard free of charge.And it was economy section.Seems,they av resumed in-flight meals once more

na who be mumu? life jackets are usually under the plane seats. I don't think most planes include parachutes because the air hostesses never mention it.

Well I can authoritatively tell you that international airlines expressly forbid crew from babysitting for passengers.If you do it,it's at your own peril.Thats because they don't want situations where passengers come back to accuse the crew thereby the airline by extension of harming the baby while they were been babysat.But because babies are soo cute,or the parent wants to visit the toilet or some other reason,,you find crew actually tending to these babies temporarily.But I can tell you that it's against most airlines policy.

You don't just copy stuff and post them here.

Try any of these on a Nigerian Carrier first. Like boarding a Dana plane and asking to view the cockpit before takeoff. undecided

I ve used aero and arikair, the much you get is half filled tiny desposable cup of chivita drink or maltina sipit with a tiny and annoying piece of cake or chim chim, then i think the news paper on your seat is free bc all the time i took it away, and no one complained. no cockpit tour any where in nigeria operated flights period

Leave that man alone. He's not even asking himself what if the plane lands on water. For parachute, I think some people may just use it wrongly. Imagine for a little turbulence and one decides to jump out and this is a plane at altitude like 36,000 ft above sea level. You'll just remain in the sky for life because at that altitude, you've overcome the earth's gravitational force. Your dead body won't even be found on earth.
