this is the craziest news of all time.
strange things only happen to nigerians. The 'giant' of Africa.

Quote:
Over 190 Air Nigeria passengers arrived Gatwick Airport 8:30 yesterday morning to fly back home ...and for 8 hours, they were stranded at the airport. The travelers were informed of lack of 'fuel' to fly the aircraft to Lagos, and were told to contribute extra £40 each for purchase of 'Aviation Fuel!

Eventually, the plane left Gatwick airport at 4:30 pm and arrived Nigeria at about 12:30 early this morning.

After spending extra hours before leaving Gatwick for Lagos, and arrived way past midnight, passengers were shocked to be informed to come back for their luggage!
From tomorrow Monday September 10th, Air Nigeria will no longer fly...for at least a year.


ok this really cracked me up.

Seems like this kuchanga for fuel is becoming the norm in the airline industry, not just in Naija.

It recently happened kwa Air France and some Indian airline operating to the UK.

And the Air Nigeria saga continues, those who bought return tickets are now stranded, no more flights and no one is taking their calls. Employees sacked for lack of loyalty and without their 5 months pay...waa d'oh!
