Air Peace needs to rein in on their staff locally and internationally. I don't hold a brief for Osho baba, but I once witnessed almost a similar unpalatable and unwholesome act being meted out to their passengers on a continental flight outside Nigeria some years ago.

Funny thing now is most the people that will defend air peace may have never entered an airport talkless of a plane. 🤣
What are you saying? That because I disagree with the services of an airline I should now block or disrupt the operation of the airline or airport either in personal capacity or as a goverment official?
Can you personally try that in our airports not to talk of other places eg Heathrow?
Oga simply put, association of airline should blacklist him for 2 years let him travel by Nigeria Airways or by road, afterall those airlines are private businesses with discretion on who to carry.

My instinct tells me Baba Osho is telling the truth.

Shame on that airline!

Na normal thing for these airlines.

They have no respect for passengers.

You cannot move people's flights indiscriminately. It is an indication of improper planning. You can't operate five flights per day when you have no capacity. If aircrafts are not available, simply reduce your flight frequency or have a code-share arrangement. The accusation that passengers are asked to pay 209k to airlift them as against what was paid online needs to be looked into.

Even if Oshiomole came late for his flight, I am glad he spoke up against the unethical practices by Air Peace. By now, the senate should have convened a public hearing into such practices by airlines. You'd be surprised that some airline staff were charging those exorbitant "boarding fees" to up their KPIs. I was surprised after so many people called out Air Peace for unethical conduct. Shebi they are now flying to London and other international routes. Let them try those sharp practices in those places if they wont pay a hefty fine or face suspension.

Dear Air Peace Management,

Nigerian Airways collapsed due to corruption and mismanagement.

Arik Air was once the poster boy of Nigerian aviation; what happened to them?

Aero Contractors?

Okada Air?

If you like, mismanage your airline and see if it won't collapse.

Dear Nigerian big men, there are critical sectors of the economy you can invest your funds in. Aviation is one of them. Come together, float an airline. Appoint a competent management team and make money. You can do the same for vehicle assembly, textile, arms and ammunition manufacturing, mining, and so on. A situation where one person is doing as he likes because he controls a third of the domestic aviation market is unacceptable.
Best comment ever. Yes oshiomole might have his own issues. But he had conveyed a very important message to Nigerians on sharp practices of the Airlines. This is a bad KPI for Air peace. And bad marketing for them.

Everything Adams said reeks of truth. Those people should check themselves…

I hope passengers can come out to verify these claims!!!
Be calming down. If you book your flight online and miss it, the options remaining is either ask for refund (depending on your ticket) or reschedule. And while rescheduling, you will pay the amount of the ticket price if the new date.

If you book a ticket online for 1 kobo, then miss your flight and decide to reschedule, and then the price of ticket on the new date is 1000 naira, you will have to pay an extra #999.99k, except you no want fly.

Some people are funny.
You want to tell me that if it's International Terminal, you will block such passage.

In developed country it's a breach of security and u will be arrested.

There are rules towards Aeroplane
Time to Check-in
Time to wait
Time to board
Time to depart.

Similar to private transport companies.


For shift in flight time..

That can be caused by weather report. some of us forget that the work with weather forecast agency and other monitoring agency.

My flight time have been shifted before and it turns out that heavy rain fell at that time.
I have also been a plane that was suppose to depart at a particular time but we had to wait for incoming plane to descend using the run way.

That was at local terminal of Abuja airport

Integrity and Nigerian politicians in a sentence is usually a lie, the last time one maigida who rode on the integrity train came through, man was worst than the devil.

Re: Oshiomhole Accuses Air Peace Of Charging Passengers For Flights Paid For Online by tnerro1(m): 8:29am On Jun 16, 2025
He may be right, if the flight is 6.30am and you get to the airport like 6.10am , if you are ready to pay an extortion fee at the counter, they will radio ahead to keep the gate open, that a VIP is on the way. I have experienced such.

If you don fly airpeace before, you go understand say they no be better airline wey carry customer service well. They will leave you stranded most times. If i wan go somewhere and na only air peace dey available, either i shift my date or no go at all. It's that bad
Re: Oshiomhole Accuses Air Peace Of Charging Passengers For Flights Paid For Online by PigTormentor:
I believe and support the senator on this one.
I had to travel to Accra last month since I missed my direct flight to Atlanta from Lagos. I needed to fly to Accra to catch a flight to JFK then to Atlanta.
I looked up the ticket online with Air Peace, the cost was 209k. I tried to pay online but they kept making it super difficult. I approached their desk at MMA 1, I told the lady what was happening on their website. She told me to make the reservation and I can pay at rhe counter with my card or transfer.
After making the reservation with a total of 209k , she then told me that I have to pay 332k.
I was furious, by now the line behind me was getting longer because so many people were also trying to fly to Accra to catch the Delta flight to JFK.
I ended up paying 332k instead of 209 that I made the reservation with online.
I felt scammed but I just wanted to leave hence I let it slide.
The price on their website is not what they want passengers to pay. It seems like a scam.
At the end , they still delayed the flight hence i arrived Accra late for my JFK flight, I had to pay for hotel and spend a night in Accra. Not a good experience with Air peace.

Airpeace has continue to lower standard and fail on best practices.
They delay in both international and local flight is one thing.
They want to be prided international but doesn't want to engage in the customer services demand for such airline.
You understand the issue. A lot of ignorant folks in here

"The senator further alleged that once the AirPeace staff recognized him as a government official, they attempted to isolate him from the other affected passengers by offering him special treatment—a gesture he refused"


Very shameful acts from Airpeace...and this is what most organisations in Nigeria extorting the common man usually do...they will try and give special treatment to "high and mighty" to cover their tracks.

Nonsense.
Is he a government official?

That's a lie right there.

This matter should be thoroughly investigated. Many of these airline staff indulge in sharp practices. Also, politicians are too power hungry and dishonest to be trusted.
Seems you don't even know how airline business operates.
You mean somebody paid online and it is verified and the person is requested to pay same airfare and extra charges above the right amount by a staff of the airline and you believe it?
Let's assume it happened, do you think the airline will retain the staff who did that? What about the image of the company? What about the regulators of the industry if they find out? Don't you think the airline will be penalised or not for such unethical behaviour?

Emotional outbursts shows either one is immature or ignorant.
Let's use our brain sometimes.
Re: Oshiomhole Accuses Air Peace Of Charging Passengers For Flights Paid For Online by DenreleDave(m): 9:57am On Jun 16, 2025
so it is okay to charge people extra money when they already booked

The senator is right that air peace has a poor punctuality records, they delay and cancel flight at will.
The sky is still open.
So you can bring in yours so that we fly your own.

Case closed.

That is why air peace WANTS you to miss the flight and charge you more for rebooking.
It's an old trick used by thieves.
