Chai !!!@ Fisrty Kpele... It can be so demoralising and stressful having to go back home after a scheduled trip, irrespective of the reason. I have been paranoid ever since after I missed a flight once,
I remember for this trip our flight was 1125pm, and DW couldn't understand why we took off to the airport @5pn lol, I said Ehn I'd rather finish everything and be sitting down and waiting ;DD

it's better to finish everything and wait true true... It's very demoralizing and frustrating... Thank God it ended in praise

shawlar:
wow..... this firsttymum flight/poe story na season film oh.... pt 1-4
we thank God that it all ended well sha , even though they made our iron firsty cry...
U should describe that bad belle woman in MMA so that every1 will look out for her

no b small season film... Lol... Now I'm laughing... Chai see me crying like a baby.... She's light in complexion... U can tell she likes makeup. On the move observing the counter and the luggage weight. She has to approve certain weights on bags. She had this radio phone hanging on her waist ... With some sort of bossy look. She is about 5ft6... She's not friendly and no wedding band on her hand. She's not ugly, but she's not pretty either.

jayjay4lyf:
What! see me feeling bad dat maybe I should have opened a stanbic acct before leaving for swiping purposes....

[quote author=spagg56 post=38334904][/quote]thank God for them... NCAA is d new cool. That lady was just wicked that's all.

Anytime I read a poe story or something really important I ensure my hubby reads it.... I save it or send it to him, or show when we r about to sleep. All I know is that he must read it. So Houston POE was a no except ofcourse he's following. When this whole ordeal happened... United initial other option was to put me on their direct flight to Houston( pay d difference if there is)... Before they now said they have to hear from lufthansa first.
My bae didn't wanna hear of Houston at all.

donchuky:
Thanks to bsharon, firsttymum etc.
Lesson learned: Hubbies please make out time to travel with wife it makes everything look genuine especially when your wife don't have a good travelling history.

we give God the glory oooo.... Yeepee

dkingsgirl:
This was the reason i choose to fly direct from Port Harcourt. So much hassle from Lagos. I flew Airfrance from PH at 36 weeks. When i tried to book lufthanza was told they don't fly more than 32 weeks despite what is written on their website, i quickly jumped over to AF. Pele on your travel hassles.

I doubt my hubby will allow me to fly from Lagos again.. Ph doesn't av issues at all.

Cry cry mummy @ first mum. Waiting for the part 2. Could be a blessing in disguise.

no b small cry cry mummy... Chai

I tried to check in online on that lufthansa.... Becos I felt I was going to b late. I'm glad it didn't work out. My dear I spoke to the traffic o... And no single traffic... Imagine at gidi rush hour... My sister come say she wan dey follow me go my church ... Hahahhahahhahhahaaaahahha

Oya flight time.
My sisters asked me to make up wear A jeans and b smart. The previous day I looked too stressed. My sister followed me that she wanna just eye the woman. Lol


As the woman sighted me, she disappeared o. My sister was already pointing at her. Lol

This time every level was fast, they were now super nice... As per they recognized me yesterday.
Those beg beg money people that search our bags... Started the usual skill na... I told them my story. Na so them begin pity me. Like they shld even give me money.

Oya check in desk... was checked in....my fit to fly was asked for, he just glanced at it and checked me in. NCAA called me at this point. And I told them I was waiting to get my boarding pass. When I was done will come over.
Na me come dey tell them to forget the case. But I just wanted an Apology from that lady. Lol

Time to board I saw the lady again.... She started forming phone call hahhahahahhaaha.
Was asked for the photocopy of my fit to fly( expected that because it was supposed to b collected at the check in desk).
Na so I board o (after hours of waiting cos I got to the airport very early this time)

I forgot to add that she said NCAA were the the ones that gave orders that airlines shldnt carry more than 32 weeks. Mscheew

That night my hubby sent lufthansa an email.
In d morning waited patiently till 8:30 to call their office ( official time on their website).
In the morning we prayed a prayer of agreement ( the power of a couples prayer is beyond explaining). I told God I didn't wanna pay any extra charge...


Called them... They said I shld sort my ish with my ticket issuer "United" as per United has to reroute me.
Problem is they can't reroute me without a reason or hearing from lufthansa... So back and forth calling, my DH was calling and calling too. It was like we were going in circles. My hubby didn't mind getting another flight (airfrance)... That's how I started crying o.... That I didn't want us to spend any extra penny cos of this situation. ( I had to remind God I'm a tither o).

By noon no way out... No reply from lufthansa Nigeria ( naija people en)

Called their Naija office again and I requested to speak with the same person I had been talking to. Hmmm that was how I was given the station managers number. I called and explained he now asked me to come to the airport.


Vavavoom
I first went to his office, office locked his number off. I sent him a text and I just waited patiently near his office...That's how I saw one dude wearing their uniform and I approached him. He advised I go to NCAA office( just at the departure hall) and explain my self. Got to NCAA explained what happened and they said above 7 month's it's dangerous to fly. I had to explain I'm a Dr and 7 months is different from 28weeks. A woman is pregnant for 9months and not 10 months. After a little lecturing... I showed them what lufthansa said on their website. Was asked if I showed the devil I encountered the previous day. I said yes. Tables turned they now said they were taking my case up against the airline. I filled a form. While I was done station manager called.... That's how I went to see him.
He apologized on their behalf, photocopied my fit to fly. Nd told me to call United to put my ticket back online. And told me to go get my bags... He wld resolve everything and I wld fly that day .
