Most of you don't get it. They should have gone to medview office to air their grievances or protest. You don't wonder around anyhow on the tarmac.

I am very sure the security must have warned them before going physical on them.

Many complains without understanding of the ethics of airside rules of airports
1. Your problem is with Medview airlines not security.
2. In the pic I saw 2 security outfits I.e FAAN aviation security and an airforce personal.
You can't stay on the tarmac even when wearing NYSC crested vest. Nobody is allowed to be close to the ladder when the aircraft door was closed after embarking.
It seems they are lucky the air force personal didn't interfere if not you wouldn't be posting by now and that is what would have happened if the AVSEC didn't succeed in removing you from the tarmac.
Even with your crested vest if only you are opportuned to hear the communication between the aircraft and the control tower you would be ashamed to hear the captain referring to you as Mad men and if need be there are snipers of airforce close by to take you down.
Being a corp member is not a licence to commit suicide

I agree that loitering around the tarmac is wrong but then rough handling them like that and smashing their phone should not have been an option unless they conditioned immediate and present danger with their presence which clearly wasn't the case.

keep your stupidity aside first.... then read and understand before you make any comments!

aphixiano:
Which medview ?if you were to be in their shoes, can you hold your cool and go to one office. Is not like they are jobless or anything, they have an appointment to meet up as well just because they are on nysc uniform doesn't make them less important to everyone else on the flight

abaegbelu:
Between both of you who is exhibiting stupidity? It is a common thing in Nigeria to misbehave because of some privilege. The corper (if he actually is one) should have left the tarmac immediately for customer service desk. period!!

kayzat:





But staying and protesting on the tarmac will not solve their grievances and at the end of the day they will still go that medview airline office to resolve the issue.

texazzpete:


Were you there? How do you know it 'clearly wasn't the case'?

They failed to leave the tarmac. That's a security and safety breach.

Of course I don't agree with their phone being smashed. That's wrong and the officer involved should be punished

abaegbelu:
Medview once canceled a flight without informing some passengers (we were very few). We got to the airport and the Medview officials were insisting the flight was cancelled and we were informed. We argued till it was discovered we were right! They put us in a hotel at Ikeja (forgotten the name), they fed us dinner and breakfast before transporting us back to the airport to board the first flight. This was in early 2016.

kerriman:
it is unfortunate that the situation was not well managed. Although in ur write-up you didn't tell us the Airport and you destination. You have every right to show ur displeasure because it is the Airline responsibility to airlift from ur origin to your destination and if they failed as a result of overbooking (not force majure),it is their responsibility to explain to you, pacify you,apologise to you provide alternatives for you to get to your destination if it is a regular routes if not they will transport you, accommodate you and reshedule your flight.
Then on the issue of you at the tarmac expressing ur displeasure it is not right because in line with international civil aviation organisation (ICAO) it can be regarded as obstruction,incursion,impediment,FOD to Aircraft operations.So no aviation security(Avsec) will allowed you to obstruct Aircraft operations and you can be charged .In all honesty you can request to see the Airline station Manager,NCAA consumer protection desk or FAAN service delivery desk they will addresss your issue with the airline. please sorry for what happened to you while serving your father's land,

texazzpete:


This is the only person here that has said something reasonable.

They should have gone to the medview office to complain and demand a refund and apology. But under no circumstances are you allowed to stay on the tarmac and protest. It is a grave security and safety risk.

If I were in charge, I'd have anyone protesting on the tarmac - and refusing to relocate - arrested. FAAN isn't Medview.

hisMrs:



One thing we should understand is that they did not just enter the tarmac for entering sake, they were given tickets and were expecting to board the plane and they were suddenly shut out of the plane with no explanations. Anybody in that situation will naturally demand an explanation and it is the duty of the officials to calm them down and take them out of the tarmac before offering explanations and apology.

Believe me, you are not making sense right now.

Ngasky:

Hmmn try getting to the airside of any airport anywhere in the world and see.
All airports worldwide are guided by ICAO charter these are rulres of ICAO.
There are places where you are only allowed to see but not recording/snap pics.

narcdramaqueen:


Don't be ridiculous. They weren't wandering around anyhow on the tarmac. The only reason they were on the tarmac to begin with is that Medview cleared them to be there and then bleeped up.

They should go and protest in Medview office? please stop typing from countries with customer service and be serious for a moment, airlines in nigeria are mental. in november, arik air left a planeload of passengers stranded in Kaduna, they had been waiting for about 12 hours for a flight to lagos. A colleague of mine finally got to Kaduna airport on Azman at 11 PM (after being advised by Arik staff in Lagos that they probably wouldn't be flying to Kaduna that day) and was told by people there that they were still expecting the Lagos flight. Meanwhile, not a soul from Arik air was in that airport to give any information or anything to the passengers. Sometimes, if you leave that place, you're on your own.
