Lola Omotayo, the wife of Peter of Psquare on Tuesday narrated how Arik airways frustrated her trip from Port Harcourt to Lagos

Lola expressed her disappointment on how Arik Airways frustrated her travel plans.

Lola reacting on her Instagram page said she was disappointed when Arik airways moved their flight schedule from the supposed 2pm schedule to 4pm, 6pm, 9pm till the flight was canceled.
She also said Arik had records of delayed flights, apethic ground staff, rude and unhelpful costumers service.

The level of miscommunication by Arik staff have to stop, Lola said.

See her post below:

"@flyarikair might be one of the biggest commercial Airlines in Nigeria today but apparently size doesn't matter when it comes to customer service! I am usually not a complainer but here is where my frustration reached its peak. A flight from PH to Lagos was supposed to leave at 2pm got moved to 4pm, 6pm and finally to 9pm and was later cancelled! Like how do you do that to people who keep you in business? Oh and the icing on the cake is when they asked passangers to return in the morning for a 9am flight and guess what? That got cancelled as well! Arik has had a terrible track record for delayed flights, apathetic ground staff, rude and unhelpful customer service and continue to treat people with no regard, no remorse and no compensation. Who you epp? This has got to STOP! Time is money and this is not the way to run an airline or treat people. The level of miscommunication by Arik staff is totally unacceptable. This airline is on a downward slide....Reliability is key! If you have to shut your airline down to get it right then do so or hire me to teach you a thing or two about customer service. For now I will pay more to avoid flying Arik period! Happy Holidays!"

Ma sister sorry o, you have to come to terms with the reality that business under Buhari is hell. Its really not their fault. They's certainly no way they will shy away from making money.

It has nothing to do with Buhari, so please don't try to pin it on him. I know people who have previously flown with Arik years before Buhari came back into power and they complained and said they were never going to fly with them again.

nothing goes straight in nigeria try to reschedule a flight in a normal functioning society i bet you that airline wont ever try it again .Alot of things we do and think are normal in Nigeria are not .Most Nigerians are aggressive and are very angry people .After i left Nigeria and went to another country most of the people there were complaining that why are Nigerians always aggresive and talk like we are quarreling about 3 to 4 cabbies told me these i decided to investigate how true this was and to my surprise most people i asked said the samething that whether a Nigerian is even trying to ask you for directions they sound aggressive.I also watched a video today and i am still quite disturbed some okada riders where beating a man and he was already weak he fell into a gutter they continued some people were busy recording with their phones nobody even endeavored to stop this people from beating the man ,the man is a government official at that does this behaviour look or sound normal .I just think everything is wrong in naija

What happens to those their husbands do not have private jets? Was this statement the wisest thing that came to your mind?

This is a General problem and not just Lola okoye's problem. So many people have experienced this!

Re: Arik Air Frustrates Lola Omotayo’s Trip To Lagos by Nobody: 6:51am On Dec 21, 2016
I'm surprised that a private individual would choose arik for anything. Their reputation precedes them. There is nothing in her experience that is out of the ordinary. I daresay every single arik flyer has experienced all of this and more.

It is a thoroughly fked airline. The only thing that can fix it is a change if the managment. The airline is thoroughly mismanaged by a smiling joker on the first page of the in-flight magazine, a constant fixture through their story of shame.

She should ask her husband to buy her a jet , if he can afford it and stop nagging.

Arik has serious issues, anybody with a brain ought to stop patronizing them there are other airlines that work.

The airline has a very poor reputation now and I can't take it anymore.

Quite a number of travellers couldn't get up and speak with their staff till I did. I shouted at them very severally and also requested to speak with their manager for a possible suspension.

You are not reasoning from my angle' Mr wisdom .

I have had the experience 2wice. ....so she should manage like we have been managing. ... we have complained ,nobody listened ,so because she is Peter Abi nah Paul's wife ,we should do what ...

Where were you when other people complained ,even basket mouth once complained of their ill looking ,hazardous cabin and so many people sent tweets to Arikair of their complaint ..... nothing has been done till date

In one of my experiences,we almost beat up 1 of the staff ,we were @ the airport till 1am. ...

And by way, social media claims her husband has a private jet ....and she should have as well booked another airline after waiting for some min "as dem be rich people"

The part where she said how do you do that to people who keep you in business, well, lecturers do that to students and apparently, we keep them in business.
Re: Arik Air Frustrates Lola Omotayo’s Trip To Lagos by Nobody: 10:50am On Dec 21, 2016
Those who still fly Arik are those who don't read news. If Arik abandoned passengers' luggage in London for over 3 days, what the heck do they care about you in Port Harcourt flying to Lagos. Dear Lola, next time you are faced with a choice between Arik and Agoufure, choose the later with all pleasure. My boss recently booked flights for her and her 4 children for December 16 to Asaba for a wedding in warri. The flights were booked on November 15. On December 15, they called Arik and were assured their flight was on schedule. On the morning of December 16, they called and were assured again. Off they went to the airport and viola! The flights have been cancelled! She quarrelled and ranted and growled and cursed... Then she called me and said; "If only I had listened to your warning to avoid Arik like a plague..." . She's my boss. So I just said "I'm sorry about the whole thing ma. Just don't beat yourself up. These things happen sometimes". But within me I was actually saying...

You guessed right! That's exactly what I was saying.

The strange thing is that I've fliwn Arik more than 5 times and I never experienced such. May be I have to be more careful.
I flew to Abj sometime ago for a business trip. Arik air was to fly at 8:30. I couldn't book with them. So I booked with Dana whivh flight was 10:30. Lo and behold, by the time I was boarding my flight, had just postponed their 8:30 flight grin
