LAGOS, NIGERIA: BOMB SCARE ON LAGOS BOUND AERO FLGHT

January 12, 2013 By Leave a Comment

A passenger on board a Lagos bound Aero aircraft suspected to be of a strange character caused a bomb scare at the Port Harcourt International Airport on Friday, after he attempted to disembark from the plane which was at the point of taking off. The passenger’s action rose the suspicion of others on board who thought he had planted a bomb in the plane, a reason he had to struggle to disembark before the plane could take off.

Trouble started when the suspect insisted he must disembark, damning all pleas by hostesses, a development which prompted the captain’s immediate intervention. The captain, Mrs Ebele Okay, according to officials of the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), resolved to call for arrest of the odd passenger who was described as haggard looking to douse tension in the plane. The captain, in addition, asked every passenger on board to disembark for a second round of screening as part of measures aimed at restoring the confidence of all passengers already booked for the 3.00 pm flight to Lagos.

The incident resulted in the Lagos bound passengers numbering 150 wasting several hours. The Aero airline was initially booked for departure at 12.00pm, before the flight hour was shifted by the management on weather condition. But while the suspected passenger was arrested for interrogation and screening by security officials, the other passengers stood their ground not to board the plane again. Sensing that the passengers’ action may disrupt the airline’s opreations for the day, a combined team of FAAN officials, police airport security, the anti-bomb unit and the Aero Airline management moved to address the passengers with assurances that proper screening had been conducted on every department of the plane and baggages of every passenger.

Mrs Ebele, who addressed the aggrieved passengers, said what had happened was a normal occurrence at the airport, contending that the resolve by the captain of the Aero plane to call for a more thorough screening of passengers was in order and in the interest of all.

SEXY FLIGHT ATTENDANTS AND CREW, A THING OF THE PAST!

July 20, 2012 By Leave a Comment

Flying used to be so sexy. Gone are the days when flight attendants and flight crew looked like the cast of the TV show ‘PANAM”.

Back in the days when passengers had to walk across the tarmac to board a plane, they were greeted by “air hostesses” arrayed in knee-high boots, short skirts and white gloves.

In 1971, the now-defunct U.S.-based National Airlines ran a saucy and suggestive ad that featured a flight attendant named Cheryl, smiling affably and accompanied by the seductive slogan, “I’m Cheryl. Fly me.”

There was another one, this time with Jo.

Business reportedly jumped 23 percent, despite accusations of sexism.

Along with National Airlines’ advertising campaign (American Airlines may have given them a run for their money), Eastern Airlines encouraged flirting with stewardesses by handing out little black books to male passengers for storing phone numbers.

Flight attendants were trained at “charm farms” to maximize their feminine sex appeal and a book depicting the golden age of travel by two “adventurous” former flight attendants entitled “Coffee, Tea or Me?” further stoked the flames of the fantasy of flying.

The airline industry has since gone through some major overhauls.

Airlines have adopted a gender-neutral professionalism, austere security measures and the ever-widening gaps between the luxury seat and the cramped budget one.

Societal norms have changed for the better — it’s hard to imagine some of the outfits pictured here ever being approved.

Still, it’s interesting to recall the fashion ethos of yesteryear.

WHAAAAT!!! WOMAN IN PRO-CHOICE T-SHIRT KICKED OFF HER FLIGHT

May 31, 2012 By Leave a Comment

I have said this before and I will say it again – until a man can get f#@*ked, then get pregnant, carry a baby inside him for 9 months and then push it out of his vagina, only then can he have an opinion regarding women and their choices with their bodies. Once again another republica…**cough** I mean… man pokes his nose where it doesn’t belong.

A woman was not allowed to board her connecting flight Tuesday because she was wearing a pro-choice shirt that was too offensive, according to American Airlines.

The woman emailed Jodi Jacobson, editor-in-chief of RH Reality Check, recounting the experience:

Right before we were set to land the flight attendant from first class approaches me and asks if I had a connecting flight? We were running a bit behind schedule, so I figured I was being asked this to be sure I would make my connecting flight.  She then proceeded to tell me that I needed to speak with the captain before disembarking the plane and that the shirt I was wearing was offensive.

The shirt was gray with the wording, “If I wanted the government in my womb, I’d fuck a senator.”

I must also mention that when I boarded the plane, I was one of the first groups to board (did not pass by many folks).  I was wearing my shawl just loosely around my neck and upon sitting down in my seat the lady next to me, who was already seated, praised me for wearing the shirt.

The shirt’s words are actually lifted from a sign used by Oklahoma state Sen. Judy McIntyre (D) at a pro-choice rally. McIntyre told critics who found her sign offensive that “I would hope they would have that same passion about how offensive it is for the Republican Party of Oklahoma to ramrod, because they have the votes to do so, bills that are offensive to women and take away the rights of women.”

American Airlines has an exceptionally strict dress policy, according to CNN. It says that “it can refuse to transport you, or may remove you from your flight for reasons including ‘being clothed in a manner that would cause discomfort or offense to other passengers.’”
