NkanAkpanika UnbanEbenezar Hunchoo, una don see una airline so? After somehow becoming the main abi only airline flowing QUO route!!

justwise and DisGuy, has any of you flown Ibom Air before? Have you had a terrible experience with them too?

Does Ibom Air now resell already paid seats by passengers to last minutes buyers with deep pockets?

Mods, please help me move this topic to the promise land.


Today the 30th of August, 2021, myself and my family(my bro and mum) had to catch a flight from Nnamdi Azikiwe international airport(ABJ) to Victor Attah International Airport(QUO). We initially thought that the flight was for 10:30am not knowing it was for 10am.

Got a bolt ride ride at just about exactly 9am to the airport from our hotel at Wuye. While in the ride, I decide to check the booking again and realize that it's actually 10am, so I tell the driver that we're a bit in a hurry. We arrive the airport and hurriedly join th he queue only to be checked and then a staff of Ibom air by the name Ekaette Eyibo with all amount hostility tells us we're late and that she's been instructed not to board anyone anymore on that flight and that we should rush to the ticketing stand to reschedule our flight.


I watch the baggage while mum goes to reschedule, only to be told that to go on the 2pm flight we'd have to pay a 85k extra and for the 6pm flight we'll pay extra 36k. We had to choose the 2pm flight since my bro had a test in Uniuyo by 3pm and you know Nigerian lecturers don't take excuses no matter how genuine. It was really painful shelling out that amount but we had to.


We were told boarding for the 2pm flight begins by 12noon. Sharp 12noon, we proceed to have our baggage checked by the ever hostile Ekaette Eyibo. After our baggage completes the due process, we proceed to departure hall and on our boarding passes, it is boldly written that boarding ends by 1320HRS GMT+1. As at the time boarding was supposed to end, it had not even commenced. Boarding for that flight began by 1324HRS GMT+1, 4 Minutes after it was supposed to end. We got on board some minutes later. As 10 minutes to the flight time, boarding was still going on, the cabin crew had not even started the usual pre-flight instruction session. By 1400HRS GMT+1, boarding was still going on by the crew, comprising majorly of Egyptians (since the plane is on a wet lease from Egypt air) and one Akwa Ibomite by the name Essien. Boarding finally ended by 1410HRS GMT+1, 10 minutes after it was supposed to take off. The airbus A220s finally started moving on the tarmac by 1429HRS GMT+1 and took off about 5 minutes later.


So many questions bug my mind at this point.
Why did boarding begin after it was supposed to end?
Was the plane still being boarded when takeoff time had passed?
Who are those passengers that were still boarding after takeoff time?
When did they book their flights and how much did they pay?
Did they have to take somebody else's seat just cos they could pay much more? And a lot of other questions only Ekaette Eyibo and the rest of the guys at Ibom Air can answer..


The same Ibom air had their flights on Saturday the 28th, and Sunday the 29th both by 1030HRS GMT+1 both shifted to 1400HRS GMT+1 of same respective days at the last minute without any form of compensation to the passengers whose schedules they had altered. Ibom Air just chooses to treat passengers as they wish just cos they can? Is this how they intend to behave when they start flying international? I really feel pained that I'm one of those that has been rooting for Ibom Air. That 85k is quite very painful and I also lost my ring in the course of the whole confusion caused by Ekaette Eyibo.

They lost in Afghanistan, now unto the next victim.

This time they picked up a weak African country.

This is only a ploy to tear the country apart under the guise of looking for another "Bin Laden" in Guinea.

America will never learn their lessons and mind their business.

You're miles apart from the real FalseProphet1. Are you from the extraction of the re(li)gion of the AK47 wielding business men?

Monogamy:
And this same Reno guy has been parading himself as a pastor.

A pastor that always want to be vindicated with evil wishes

Carlom Slim used to be number 1 richest man in the world, which position is he currently in on the list? Should Buhari also be blamed for that?

Is he saying the truth, yes or no? But you choose to give him the popular tag; “fake pastor” to whip sentiments

VillagePipu:


Do you know that when bandits kidnap animals like you in the North, they now collect onions and goats in exchange?

This fulani thing I just quoted, if they kidnap him, they will collect goat in exchange. A full breed German shepherd dog can buy 12 goats in the North.

This boy and his entire family are not up to 1 dog that we use to put in our gates in the South. When next you see a dog, that dog is worth more than this animal and his entire family.

Abeg wetin you study for uni? E be like say Insultation you read for Sch ooo. I don laugh tire

Did Jesus Christ teach this?

Read Matthew 5. I think somewhere from verse 20 downwards. It’s there

MeghaneMorgane:
Honestly I don’t know how those couples survive. It’s ok if it is for some months and if the couple have a strategic plan on how they intend to eventually be together after a definite period. Not leaving anything to fate or life to decide. If not, I don’t know how they do it staying apart for an indefinite period.

But people here are saying they’ll both definitely be cheating

MeghaneMorgane:
I am a young lady in my mid 20s. I don’t live with my parents. I live alone because I work in another city different from where my parents live. My problem now is immediately I get back home from work, I begin to feel lonely. Because of this, I like to close late from work just to keep my mind busy. I close early only if I have other errands to run or if I am very tired.

When I get home, I speak with my parents who try their best to keep me company. But there is still lots of time left before I go to bed. In the height of my boredom, I come to nairaland. Then I go to other blogs to read the news. I read all the news blogs I normally follow. I check out my chats on WhatsApp and Telegram. Usually there isn’t anyone chatting with me because everyone is busy with their lives. I go to Youtube which I have become tired of watching. And at some time I’m just bored to my mind. I don’t like to impose myself on anybody and so I only chat with people who come to chat with me including neighbours.

Sometimes I just want someone around that I can talk to but I’m alone by myself. Single people, how do you cope with boredom. I mean single people who are really single not the ones cohabiting or visiting their partners. Some tips will be very helpful right now.

I’d like to be your friend shaaa but I’m scared that I myself can be very boring sometimes especially if we don’t have common grounds to hold discussions on. What sayest thee?

Yewandequeen:
" was"

Yeah we're no more although there wasn't really a point that we called it off. She's still saved as Tulip on my device

Funny enough, it's actually when I Shave that I have the itching. Trim the beards often(not too high or low and frequency should be dependent on how quickly your hair grows), keep it clean by washing it thoroughly during every bath(I think this is why I consume more soap than regular people Sha). You'll be fine
