OP, you get mind self....seeing that, you still went ahead and use your life play calucalu by flying with them. If an Airline can belatedly and openly display this level of carefree attitude in things in the open that we can see and touch; what made you think that the things that we cannot see e.g. the fuselage cap is not held in place by another set of tapes, or that the brakes don't have bandages in them or that some part of the electrical wirings are not carelessly taped as well or even left hanging, since no one is seeing them? And some people are talking about the price of Naira? No bi person wey dey alive go benefit when Buhari & his team on technocrats eventually make $1 = N1? At least the last time I checked, they have not totally rescinded on that promise, like they have done on the promise to pay N5,000.00 to the unemployed every month. |

danla44: I guess, it was the Airline that put the emergency door there, the manufacturer had no clue the door is going to be them. If there is an emergency such that, you have enough time to unlatch and turn all the emergency door knobs, by the passenger with the assistance of the flight attendants, there will enough time for one of them to also latch this tray up, if it were open. It appear that, the latch in this case is broken and can't keep the tray in place...even if that is true, they would have done it properly...believe me, in a true emergency that will necessitate theo use that door, those tapes will come flying out and will be a danger to the person sitting there and a further hindrance to anyone trying to open the door, all because the Airline decide to save a few bucks by not fixing the tray or even remove them. 2 Likes |

BeClever: The airline should have thought of their image before using tape to hold down anything in their aircraft. Instead of you to ask why, you are suggesting people keep quiet about it. Ok. 5 Likes |

Re: What I Saw In An Airline Today. by thegreengooner(m): 8:42pm On Feb 28, 2016 |
This is Arik...I've flown on this aircraft before. Whilst it is tacky, there is nothing wrong with putting a sign there...best thing to have done however would have been to remove the tray from behind the seat. For most exit row seats, an in-seat tray is used and not the one at the back of the seat in front of you. 1 Like |

thegreengooner: To be honest, taping it up like that comes with its own health and safety issues (especially if there aren't meant to be any trays on the exit seat). In case of emergency, the trays could come undone from the masking tape and cause more injuries and obstructions. Ridiculous if you ask me?! 1 Like |

you're crazy! you need to think right, not mediocre. what da hell an air plane is meant to portray standard and comfort. if it ain't OK to fly, then don't take to air. I will be OK to accept that if only it was announced that one would be offered this kind of comfort and service before I purchase the ticket. for me it is totally unacceptable, cos the moment you accept this, the next thing masking tape would be on the engine. it is total rubbish!!!.

BeClever:what are u guys saying? That the persanger that book that seat should put his snacks and drink on his lap or what? Let's assume its an international flight of 6hours or more? More over I can bet my penny on this craft, its not Arik. Arik will nt seal that tray so poorly. It may be Aero Contractors or Dana, lol. But seriously, Oyinbo wey place that seat beside that emergency door no stupid now. The tray is just a plastic that in emergency, one smash on it, it will break. So y are the airline sacrificing the perssanger's comfort on unnecessary safty mesure. Trust me, if it were me, I won't sit, infact I must see the captain. I will cause troble so tey my seat must be changed, or I swap with someone or that tray must come down wen I wanna dine. Simple as ABC 2 Likes |

Darkchocolate: Let me add to the bolded above..... THE WORST AND THE MOST EXPENSIVE NIGERIAN AIRLINE!! Can't forget my experience with them from Lagos to Benin in Easter of 2012... after hours upon hours of delay, we finally boarded and took off. And they tell us that sorry, the snacks are finished; they only gave us a glass of orange juice or water & that was it, after the huge airfare we paid!! Never had such experience on any other airline, both local and international!! I never fly ARIK unless I'm going to a destination where no other airline is readily available. 2 Likes |

rahman3853: Bros, if you fly regularly, you will surely know, just like many commentators here, that this is Arik Air. In addition, Dana & Aero don't have aircraft that have inflight entertainment system which you see at the back of the seat, because their (Dana & Aero) aircraft are older, compared to Arik's which are a bit newer & more modern. I have flown on them all including First Nation, Medview & Discovery Air, so I know as so many others do. 1 Like |

Whoever introduced this topic, if u or others know anything about safety u won't fault the airline coz that sign is for peeps like u seated at exits and claiming u know the rules when actually u dont...maybe its coz of u it was boldly written that way who knows?..know the rules first...joor ooo |
Re: What I Saw In An Airline Today. by HEIR: 10:19pm On Feb 28, 2016 |
These are old Boeing aircrafts, newer models have the trays fitted inside the arm rest for seats close to the emergency exits. It possess a serious safety hazard during emergency. Airlines abroad using such old planes also seal theirs too, albeit with better astestic appeal. Please don't be too hard on them. |
Re: What I Saw In An Airline Today. by OBAGADAFFI: 10:36pm On Feb 28, 2016 |
modivaz: You people just got no shame at all. The Manufacturer the placed those trays there are not stupid. Why did the airline issued ticket for that seat when they know it is exit. |
