He has no case. He observed a wrong code at the ticket office, according to this article and still went ahead How is that the airline's fault? |

Era of litigation for any flimsy excuse. Well everyone is being americanised...I hope he emerge victorious for his claims. |

AyeeIdris: I thougth i was the only one that read that part. The lawsuit is premeditated, he has no case. They saw the ticket he was issued. The ticket he bought was where he was taken to. It is the duty of the passenger to have the visa of the country you are visiting and not that of the airline. If you couldnt get the visa of the airline route countries, you book with another one. I am sorry for all the trouble he went through and all his lost baggages. |

YoursGEJ: The youngman did the right thing and took the right decision,he sued for what concerns him and not another person's problem.The rule of law must prevail,he would be rewarded accordingly for Egypt's air breach of contract.Think of this,if he bought his ticket and failed to board the flight at the close of the counter,will he get refund?capital NO.So Egypt air should face the law and negotiate or pay all the damages the youngman seeks. Until we take our lawful rights serious we would be treated as none existing. Egypt Air fumbled,why can't the airline negotiate with another member of star aliance to take their passengers to their respective destinations,it happens in aviation industry often. |

mostyg: Read the full article before judging. Obviously a lawyer won't take a case for him, if the case is dumb with loopholes. This is the missing part in the full article after they saw the ticket. Its people like you that loose cases. If you were the lawyer for the defendant(eygpt air) now, you would have missed this fact and they will turn it against you and you will loose. Always look for full facts first before you talk. Someone posted the link earlier so you have no excuse. This is the missing part after they saw the ticket. We immediately brought this discovery to another ticketing officer’s attention who was seated at Counter 2, as we were informed that his colleague, Mr. Nzan, had stepped out of the office. This ticketing officer restated that the ticket was full economy and for Kiev, Ukraine with all the segments confirmed. However, we remained unconvinced, given that our prior experience indicated that the airport code for Kiev, Ukraine would usually read “KBP”.

YoursGEJ: Sounds dull. So the fact some people died means his own rights are extinguished? It is people like you that encourages these operators to flout people's rights with reckless abandon. He knows his rights and he is exploring his options. If many more Nigerians did this, operators will be saner and act more responsibly. I am sure if you were to be in that guys shoe you will be happy you were not part of the craft that disappeared. You would rather leave vengeance to God or even go ahead to do thanksgiving in church thereby enriching people that had no hand in any of those things. Know your rights. Read wide, befriend a lawyer.

wiloy2k8: Read the full article before judging. Obviously a lawyer won't take a case for him, if the case is dumb with loopholes. It is the airlines agent's duty to give guidance to the customers. And after they re met the agents they still told them that it was correct. Even during the departure he brought the attention to the agents at the airport, they made a call to the agent that gave him to clarify , and the agent told the agent at the airport in Lagos that it was correct. The agents at airport in Lagos started calling him troublesome and so. So clearly its the airlines fault , definitely not his.

I remember this case. It wasn't nearly as easy and straightforward as the op is making it seem. The dude almost lost his life in the whole wahala. It was even on print media. I hope it makes other people to take Nigerians seriously because, contrary to popular belief, a good number of us are hardworking, honest and law abiding. |

stevedre: The action of a few bad ones shouldn't make you generalize and condemn them all. I've come across a number of Egyptians and yes they're very stubborn people, possibly the most stubborn Arabs but they're still sweet and warm people and they love Nigerians. However, I hope the boy wins the case so they know it's not ok to treat people anyhow |

I guess you met the exposed ones, the average egyptian is a racist even they dislike black egyptians who are the real egyptians. the truth is other arabs are scared of egyptians because of their greed and attitude. I have spent enough years in their country and the best thing about the arabs is their money. If theres a problem you will know that ur egyptian friend got 3 faces. anitank: |

mostyg: Imagine this, your migrating to a new mtn clique or whatever they call it. The last time you did it was a year ago and the code you used was *731#. Then you meet an mtn agent cause you can't remember fully but you have an idea. The agent tells you *713#. You are skeptical about it and you meet three more agents and they tell you the same the same thing *713#. Won't you just think that your the one that's wrong and since its coming from a direct agent they must be correct. Mind you. It was in abbreviation KIV not in full country name. So its not His fault at all. He ain't no agent, ain't His job to be kramming airline code names. The agents are meant to be the ones telling him the correct things. After he and his mom went to several agents they kept in saying that it was correct. So maybe after many trials they finally thought they were the wrong ones. Put yourself in those shoes. People that have spent their entire lives in that job tells you that your wrong, won't you think your wrong. This a points his lawyers can use. Its entirely not his fault. They should sack all those incompetent agents... |

Re: Nigerian Student Sues EgyptAir For Wrong Routing by mostyg(m): 5:43pm On May 21, 2016 |
Snow30: I hope his lawyers would be able to proof that. Lets note that ticketing agents might not have anything to do with the airline. These are different entities. From the explanation above, his case is with the agents and not the airline. The airline took him to the destination of the ticket he bougth. If the ticket was bought directly at the airline office and his lawyer was able to proof that he was deceived to buying a wrong ticket or he was sold a wrong ticket, the airline has a case to answer. I really sympathise with him and I pray no experience such a terrible thing in life. 1 Like |
