Air Peace, Nigeria’s largest airline, apologized to its passengers over the weekend for the constant flight rescheduling and delays.
The airline blamed the incidents on inclement weather, according to a statement made accessible to journalists. According to our source, the interruptions primarily impacted customers traveling on southern and northern routes.
According to the company, “The flight disruption is due to a persistent poor weather, which adversely affects visibility in these cities.
“Our heartfelt apologises to customers whose flights have been disrupted as a result of this, and we crave their understanding.”
According to InsightnaijaTV, the airline’s action came a day after Barr Emeka Ugwuonye, the founder of Due Process Advocates, announced that he will file a lawsuit against Air Peace for its insensitivity to its consumers in Nigeria.
“I was billed to fly back to Lagos yesterday, after a court hearing in Abuja,” the lawyer said. I had an Air Peace flight at 4:25 p.m. By 2 p.m., I was at the airport. My flight had been rescheduled for 8:10pm, according to the check-in counter.
“I had to wait at the lounge for the 8:10pm flight. I had to cancel my meetings with my staff in Lagos. At 8:10pm, Air Peace did not call for boarding. By 9pm, they announced that my flight had been moved again to 10pm.
“At this point, I tried to go back to Abuja town, as I felt it would be too late for me to travel from Lagos airport to my home in Ikoyi. However, Air Peace could not give me my luggage because they had flown my luggage to Lagos on the earlier flight they told me was delayed. So, I was forced to stay back at the Abuja airport.
“By 10pm, they announced that the flight has been moved again to 11pm. Finally, the 4:25pm flight took off by 11:43pm and we arrived in Lagos by 12:33am. I spent over an hour at the airport trying to find my luggage where the airline kept it. I went through an ordeal to get home by 3am.
“When I sat back and analyzed what happened, I saw a vicious airline operator which has total disregard for Nigerians and which could toy with my life and which put me through extreme pain and suffering. I became convinced that unless I drag Air Peace through the courts, it will continue in such vicious and abusive conduct. “I have therefore directed our lawyers to start the process of suing Air Peace for damages. I believe this action will be in the public interest.”
always i used to read smaller articles which also clear their motive, and that is also happening with this post which I am reading here.
