oh and i forgot to add that inflight attendants (since they are also from the diaspora) also refuse to speak in kiswahili even when they are speaking to elderly people who do not understand /are not comfy conversing in english.......annoying!


Thats soo true...I experienced this once .Having had crazy flight connections,I was only too happy to finally board KQ in Cairo for Nbi.And guess what..I happily greeted the KQ attendants(two ladies) in Swahili but they simply shrugged and ignored my greetings.I found it rather strange...

I was lucky the other day, I met an inflight attendant (a dude) who I had known for many years during my trip from Pakistan - We had lots of stories to speak (In Swa/sheng)
