First time travelling by air can be thrilling, scarry or exciting for different people.

Firstly, It depends on your person really; is the person lilly-livered, scared of heights, etc

Secondly, it depends on the weather during the flight...my friend, you don't want to fly through a stormy weather ...the turbulence atimes makes you say your final prayers, while remembering all you have left undone, and the beautiful people you will leave behind.

Finally, if it is an international flight, and you happen to hit the jackpot of getting a visa to a developed country, at this point in time in Nigeria's history, no matter the turbulence, your heart will be radiating with joy

Just as your heart desire, Canada is on the card for you bro

Thank you

You boarded a flight from Abuja to Lagos and you want to bring down Nairaland.

What should people like us - who have accumulated up to 700hrs on air to and fro Europe - do then?

keep it to yourselves

ursullalinda:
Good experience.....you will have more of it.....my aunty missed her flight with 5 kids because of the accents you were complaining about......We laughed out the living day light out of her.......but since money wasn't a problem she boarded the next available flight with her squad......and I'm sure so many have been on that spot.

Asin ehn, that accent is not necessary for domestic flights

Vicmareal:
Your account of your first flight is so exciting, especially the pain in the ear-part. God is indeed faithful. I look forward to a first time experience too.. congratulations bro!

thank you

This is an update to the previous thread here:

https://www.nairaland.com/6783357/traveling-air-first-time/7#106420545

So i boarded my plane this morning and i can say it was a great experience thanks to all your contributions and tips. Lemme start like this, I woke up so early as my flight was at 8:25 since it's my first time i needed to play safe to avoid stories that touch i didn't give my village people a chance in that aspect.

I arrived at the airport few minutes to 7 and by 7:10 i was done checking in and ready for boarding (I didn't expect it to be so fast and smooth tho)

That was how i started pressing my phone and carefully paying attention to the announcements that one could barely hear. (I think airports need to do better as some of us no dey understand that kind accents) They can just past the announcement on a screen for people to read, anyways what do i know? maybe people have not missed flight as a result of that.

Ehen so while waiting, i was just observing everything, i saw one bros seated behind me so i walked up to him and confessed. "Bros no vex, na my first flight bdis, abeg if dem announce air peace flight to lagos just let me know" he smiled and said i shouldn't worry. Few minutes later i heard the announcement naso i pack my things go join queue, kudos to air peace (unlike the other announcements i heard, they used one local accent to announce before the normal posh accent repeated the announcement so it was easy for me to know it's time to board.

They did the normal thing and i was inside the plane naso i just dey look like village boy. i followed the suggestion by some good NLanders and watched how to fasten a plane seat belt so it was not an issue, i no disgrace my ancestors. except for the air hostess that was rude when i asked her for my seat everything went fine, i was so calm and composed like i've done this before. The plane took off and few minutes later we're flying above the clouds i was just smiling all through then i felt a sharp pain in my left ear, boom i no dey hear well again. then i remembered i was told here, i just swallowed saliva and i'd regain my hearing, it continued through out the flight. some of the things i noticed through the flight was:

Majority of land, like 70 percent is uninhabited, i saw my knowledge of geography come into play as we ascend into the sky, i could easily identify all the different layers like atmosphere, lithosphere and the rest it was like we're traveling to space, asin after all science no dey lie oo but above all God is the greatest. My experience helped me to believe God more, like he created all these things, he has the power to do anything so why even doubt him.

At some point during the flight, the plane was vibrating and turning anyhow lol but i didnt panic because i remembered nairalanders told me about it, i was seated by the window and stayed awake all through. Like 20 minutes into the flight, the pilot said "for those of you sitting by the right if you look by the window we are just flying over ibadan" naso i look and was like, oga i no see ibadan here ooo na just thick cloud i see.
That was how i landed in lagos around 10am and the weather was looking like 4pm nawao. i enjoyed my flight sha and i hope to do this again, but next time it should be canada not lagos.

ddeola:
Just be yourself no qualms and by God's grace, you will be travelling by air all over the world in Jesus name.

philo04:

Hello nairalanders, so i will be traveling by air from Abujaj to Lagos next week. I'm having some kind of feelings, any tips for first time fliers ? Like do's and Don't s.

snapdragon00:
Pls how much should someone pay for a state secondary school teaching job that pays 55k for a start. i need estimate please

Please i need answer to this. is 300k good enough ok ?

Tintedglass:
Even with this explanation, I am sorry your analysis of the agencies is still very flawed and misleading, but again everyone is free to their opinion.

On another note, I miss days when Engr Briggs and Tammy Anybody were active on here they were very careful of giving information that is not verified. These days information on this forum I urge everyone to take with a pinch of salt and do their own research.

the moment i saw pinch of salt and do your own research i knew u trade cryptos, i lie?

topiiiiiiii:
please is it fct school you are referring to? Please i sent a msg

No sir

Pls how can i find my way into NESREA or SON or NAFDAC ?

Swagsultan1:
Say na 'Dr nnaji'... You obviously don't even have any inside information like you are trying hard to make us believe here. First of all, I was the one who told you about corpers going once in a month for clearance, secondly you should go and get your facts right about who gives clearance letters. Not doing this back and forth with you again sha. Once more, Good luck to you and the people you are confusing here

Bros pls do me a favour, GET OUT of here. Ur type of character is disgusting.

Swagsultan1:
LMAO..You took a screen shot from nairaland and it almost landed boboi in trouble? I understand the need to make people worship you on this platform, but stop lying please. Who tf do you think you are.

Una don start wetin una do Nwayi. There's no point to be rude, even for the fact that a lot of people relied on his info. Stop trying to provoke people to leave the thread in the name of other helpers will rise, one day one day the thread go dry and info go scarce.

Houston17:
Brother, I undestand you perfectly. I might not have too much experience with job search yet but I can relate to how frustrating and devastating the experience can be. However, I just need to let you know that there is God my brother and like He told Jeremiah, He knows you far beyond what you can imagine bro. He's got this life so planned out for you, though it seems like a mirage but trust me, there is more to you than you see.

Severally I've had thoughts like this, but when I think of how far I've come, I just know that there is a God that has been orchestrating all these. So bro, cheer up cos if you hear some persons story, you go fear ooo. One of my uncle has been out of job since like 2010 and every effort (including paying for fed jobs) has proved abortive. He's got his wife and three kids to take care of. So bro, abeg just cheer up. The book of psalms say "Send us help o God, for vain is the help of man". Na from Him all that you ever want or think of comes from. You're closer to the end of the road than you think. Do have a rethink about Him, stay on course and trust me, in due time, things will turn out for good for you and everyone of us..

Cheers bro!!!

I believe you boss, i noticed something about life, no matter how ur situation is, there's someone out there far worse. This is the reason why we need to thank God for whatever happen. There's never an end of life till the day we die, let's just keep surviving, believing in God and improving ourselves

Ermm:
CBN called some people with diploma days ago for medicals, perhaps graduates will soon be called

Everyone is recruiting biko wont SON recruit anytime soon? abi mek i move on?

justnixon:
Excuse me young man.
I didn't pick a fight with you.
I started obvious facts
Shouting over half a million abi. Na sand?
Do you think some homes save up to that in a year?
Those who had paid 6m for an npa slot didn't pay it to a nairalander. And moreover I don't even know the said person giving out the slot.
His contact details still de there, you can take up the offer and stop conspiring with the OP to make him sound legit

They always want to proof a point about slot buy as if someone is begging them to convince him.

arcike:
People paid 6mill for NPA job, 4mill upfront and the balance after documentation and you are here shouting ontop half a mill...
You people really dunno what is going on sha... Well back to my hibernation

Oh don't pay full na, and see where you will be posted to.. You would just start your career miserablely

Still doesn't change the fact that people are being scammed for buying slots. Stop trying to impose it on people like if they get scammed you will compensate them with a dime.
In this same abuja i know a lady that have been scammed thrice so if you happen to meet her will you tell her to pay for slot without documentation again?

Pls where can i go in the evenings to relax my mind? especially where i don't have to spend, for example any fun gathering, i use to go watch people play football but i got bored. pls suggest places in town like Wuse maitama garki thanks
