It gets much worse during sharp banks. One lady seated opposite me closed her eyes (presumably in prayer) all the way from Moi to JKIA. Infront, besides, behind are all okay BUT opposite? in a plane? Unless its one of those Kisii 7-a-side matatus.  Hii ni opposite ya mwafrica yawa, more like beside lakini seperated by the aisle. Si ukimuangalia ako opposite you, ama? othelo, nice one!

The closest I have ever come to board a plane was when I boarded double Mto the airport to bid farewell to a friend of our cousin who was going to Wajir for an assignment,otherwise I'm used to outreach travel and forward travellers If Obiero did it, Who Am I?

Terrible. hahahahaaa, thats why you should always empty your bowels and bladders before you board, and always swallow pills called nosic or pregnidoxin, very helpful if you suffer from motion sickness Na mmepitia mengi sana. Hii si ile dawa iliitishwo na wazualet mmoja ambaye alienda holiday na mpenziwe, the one who asked for the best method to prevent being pegged? Sijui aliitwo nani. Will dig up that thread.

I sailed through all the difficult stages, very tough interviews conducted by different bodies, about 4 of them that test reasoning ability, speeds, eye hand coordinations and many more. After struggling to reach the final stage from a group of 100 guys, we were left 18 of us, i was eliminated at that very last stage with no apparent reason. I thought it was because i dont know people, to date, that event still haunts me to date!!!! Everytime i pass by the Eastern Bypass near JKIA and i see planes flying, i just feel so so bad. But i accepted and moved on Same here, passed all hadi Captains Interview, them buggers even had the audacity to tell me to get a passport AsaP, YOU SHOULD KNOW PEOPLE.

Hakuna seat belt unajishikilia during take off and landing! Its those old Russian planes with Russian pilots. The runway has some "bumps". Never again!! Better stick to KQ everywhere you go, where they don't go - no need to go! I flew once from a Hargeisa to a small village in mainland somaliland and that ka-airpot was just a land rover under a tree....the flight no toilet unpressurized, noisy and the heat down there. Sasa bump kwa hewa was real bumps the kaplane would sway

waa, ati 10 hours in the skies - na hizi un-pressurized flights ni nini, what is the experience between pressurized and those that do not have it.
nasikia some people get sick in the ears, does it have to do with this pressure thing.
