Exactly my experience from Lagos to Port Harcourt on Saturday, it was actually my first time. Finally better good, I was just using my head make I no Jones, before boarding my stomach was doing me somehow, had to use the convenience, those guys working there can beg Sha. But why will air peace be giving someone that small happy hour juice and small bottle water? Thought they give food on board? Many things was just running through my mind on board, finally God is wonderful. It was a good experience

lol they tried for you na, they only gave us water. i saw them passing with meat pie its like they took it to business class

My first flight had me sweating profusely under AC. And it was my worst flight ever; just from Lagos to Abuja. Dana Air it was, the aircraft version of molue. I think I saw where they taped the wing sef... and the horrifying noise and vibrations. And that wing kept flapping in the air I thought it would pull off and hit one Fulani herdsman in the bush. To make things worse, one idiot behind me was recounting the Dana Air crash incident of 2012. I wanted to turn around and spit in his face but my fear was stronger. So I faced my front. I rejected their stupid coffee and cheap biscuits. If possible, I would prefer landing midway and completing my journey in a commercial bus.

That was my last with Dana. Booked Air Peace for return flight and the experience was better.

Lol. when i saw its the new air peace embrae plane i was at ease knowing its new and probably not faulty

You boarded a flight from Abuja to Lagos and you want to bring down Nairaland.

What should people like us - who have accumulated up to 700hrs on air to and fro Europe - do then?

grin
I spend 13 hours from naija to Cameroon twice a week.(HIGH SEA THROUGHOUT) . can you beat that ?

This is an update to the previous thread here:

https://www.nairaland.com/6783357/traveling-air-first-time/7#106420545

So i boarded my plane this morning and i can say it was a great experience thanks to all your contributions and tips. Lemme start like this, I woke up so early as my flight was at 8:25 since it's my first time i needed to play safe to avoid stories that touch grin i didn't give my village people a chance in that aspect.

I arrived at the airport few minutes to 7 and by 7:10 i was done checking in and ready for boarding (I didn't expect it to be so fast and smooth tho)

That was how i started pressing my phone and carefully paying attention to the announcements that one could barely hear. (I think airports need to do better as some of us no dey understand that kind accents) cry They can just past the announcement on a screen for people to read, anyways what do i know? maybe people have not missed flight as a result of that.

Ehen so while waiting, i was just observing everything, i saw one bros seated behind me so i walked up to him and confessed. grin "Bros no vex, na my first flight bdis, abeg if dem announce air peace flight to lagos just let me know" he smiled and said i shouldn't worry. Few minutes later i heard the announcement naso i pack my things go join queue, kudos to air peace (unlike the other announcements i heard, they used one local accent to announce before the normal posh accent repeated the announcement so it was easy for me to know it's time to board.

They did the normal thing and i was inside the plane naso i just dey look like village boy. grin i followed the suggestion by some good NLanders and watched how to fasten a plane seat belt so it was not an issue, i no disgrace my ancestors. except for the air hostess that was rude when i asked her for my seat everything went fine, i was so calm and composed like i've done this before. The plane took off and few minutes later we're flying above the clouds i was just smiling all through then i felt a sharp pain in my left ear, boom i no dey hear well again. grin then i remembered i was told here, i just swallowed saliva and i'd regain my hearing, it continued through out the flight. some of the things i noticed through the flight was:

Majority of land, like 70 percent is uninhabited, i saw my knowledge of geography come into play as we ascend into the sky, i could easily identify all the different layers like atmosphere, lithosphere and the rest it was like we're traveling to space, asin after all science no dey lie oo but above all God is the greatest. My experience helped me to believe God more, like he created all these things, he has the power to do anything so why even doubt him. cool

At some point during the flight, the plane was vibrating and turning anyhow lol but i didnt panic because i remembered nairalanders told me about it, i was seated by the window and stayed awake all through. Like 20 minutes into the flight, the pilot said "for those of you sitting by the right if you look by the window we are just flying over ibadan" naso i look and was like, oga i no see ibadan here ooo na just thick cloud i see. cheesy
That was how i landed in lagos around 10am and the weather was looking like 4pm nawao. i enjoyed my flight sha and i hope to do this again, but next time it should be canada not lagos. grin

Congratz bro grin

Welcome to the club

Air flight na one of the best experience in life

Nice.
Op, how long did the discomfort you felt in your ear last?
And was it just blocked or it rang I.e tinnitus?
Just impaired hearing. it comes and goes i think depending on the altitude the plane enters and it doesn't last long as long as i swallow saliva it stops
