Ada Nri1: This last journey I saw a lot of people drinking little bottles of wine and requesting more food from the cabin crew. What actually annoys me about flying is the fact that I travel with little kids but the passengers in front of me recline their seats so much that my kids have to be squeezed. Eya. I know how u must have felt. Nigerians are one of the most selfish people in the world. 1 Like |

Flushing the toilet while the door is opened, this kind of loud noise that got most people looking back. So embarrassing. |

zube01: 1. Securing beds...in Economy Class! There's a game Nigerian passengers play whenever they're on-board a semi-full airplane - It's kind of similar to Musical Chairs...but without the music. Passengers snub the seats assigned to them and scout for a stretch of three to four empty seats before take-off. Handbags and other luggage items are strategically placed on empty seats in the hope for that Business Class experience - pathetic. The clapping stuff is a third world country phenomenon. I have observed performed by citizens of the Dominican Republic as well. |

Delaw135: I alwayz like sitting beside window for fresh air in plane How would sitting beside a window on a commercial plane result in 'giving you fresh air'? Where the fresh air dey come from when the windows are shut? Once the doors are shut, everyone shares the same pressurized oxygen circulating throughout the plane, there is no fresh air. |

1. Nigerians don't do most things you put up there except taking pictures and clapping on successful landing. I take pictures when I sight the beauty of nature through the window. (NOT TRUE) 2. There's no toilet for farting, it's nature's call and at one point or the other you'll just have to let out some fart for your comfort. Farting on an airplane is not native to citizens of a certain country. (NOT TRUE) 3. Yes I do drink on a well long flight, not to get value for my money but just cuz I want to and I'm allowed to. (NOT TRUE) 4. Leaving toilets unlocked might skip anyone's mind. It's not native to citizens of a certain country. (NOT TRUE) 5. I've never seen Nigerians securing bed in economy class, maybe I just didn't notice. (PROBABLY NOT TRUE) 6. I've as well never witnessed a Nigerian making a dramatic nollywood scenes on board. (NOT TRUE) 7. Clapping on successful landing is the only thing I'll say Nigerians do and it's well annoying. (VERY TRUE) |
Re: Annoying Things Nigerians Do On Airplanes by Segzy23: 3:12pm On Dec 21, 2013 |
Clapping thing usually happens after a rough flight, people tend to clap when the plane touch down. I don't blame them. This happens virtually anywhere. One annoying thing that is mostly common with Nigerians though, is when the Pilot says we have 40 minutes to land and this is your opportunity to use the lavatories, even after they have put the seat belt sign on and it is like 15 mins to land, you will still see people stand and running to the lavatories. It is so annoying, control your bladders. @Akinalabi wrote 1. Nothing wrong with that as long as those other seats are truly empty. It's empty for fks sake. I am afraid there is something wrong with it, usually, if the plane is half empty, they arrange passengers in such a way to balance the plane for take-off. After takeoff, when seat-belt sign is off, then you can move to the empty seats |
Re: Annoying Things Nigerians Do On Airplanes by Panter215: 3:21pm On Dec 21, 2013 |
Op I think you are a local champion. Your travels must be limited to nigeria. All you have written are common in most flights I have been on and oyibo have been the most culprit. How can you limit fart on plane to nigerian's only? Even druckness which is the brith right of Europeans. Abey try travel outside naija. |

Re: Annoying Things Nigerians Do On Airplanes by obstead200(m): 3:36pm On Dec 21, 2013 |
I take exception to the clapping thing. Even though I have flown extensively (although locally only) I've never experienced this clapping parade. That means OP is wrong |
Re: Annoying Things Nigerians Do On Airplanes by Nobody: 3:45pm On Dec 21, 2013 |
The most annoying tin nigerians do on plane is to fly the plane & clash it |
Re: Annoying Things Nigerians Do On Airplanes by franklampard082(m): 3:55pm On Dec 21, 2013 |
From the post I think the op is bitter sod. Yep, some of the things mentioned are not good but u make it seem luke it's only Nigerians. White people take photos on planes too. If u were really concentrating on ur book u wouldn't have noticed anything. The op is just trying to seem more posh but I think he/she is also guilty of some of those or just pretending to be better off. We know ur type. New money syndrome and all that |

Guidette: I just travelled 2 days ago on a flight to London. i think there were only 2 Nigerians like me on the flight and the rest were mostly British. i experience the periodic farting.... it was horrible. I think Oyinbo mess is worse than any other type of mess i have experienced in my life *pukes* Absolutely agree. I think the OP needs to travel some more. I have also never experienced the clapping. |
