Arik Air mishap




I’m sure many of us have heard about the incident with Arik air that happened yesterday (26/9/13) but for those who haven’t let me give you a brief recap. 
Passengers of Arik air who were going to Calabar from Abuja could not land because the airport in Calabar was blocked by the time they got there. Due to this reason they were brought back to Abuja.
I got the follow up of that story from a reliable source that was on Arik flight W3521 from Abuja to Portharcourt today stating that the Calabar passengers from yesterday were put on their flight to portharcourt without prior informing them until they had all boarded.
As if that was not bad enough, on reaching Calabar to drop them off, the aircraft refused to start and they had to wait about 2 hours before the aircraft was finally fixed, that was when they eventually proceeded on their journey to portharcourt. 
My source also says some of the passengers were so upset and could not wait so they continued their journey to portharcourt by road...poor them *sad face*
