Nigerian singer and dancer Korra Obidi has expressed frustration after missing her Lagos-bound flight, describing it as the worst flight experience she has ever had.
Taking to her Instagram page, she explained that she had been waiting for hours at the boarding gate before dozing off, only to wake up and discover that the flight had already departed without her.
According to Korra, she was travelling with Royal Air Maroc and claimed there was no announcement informing passengers that boarding for the Lagos flight had commenced.
“This has to be the worst flight experience I have ever had in my life. This is Royal Air Maroc, and everything was going great until I was sitting at the boarding gate. I didn’t even know they were boarding Lagos. I was just sleeping. I opened my eyes and my flight had left,” she said.
The singer disclosed that she was forced to spend an additional $500 to purchase another ticket to Lagos after missing the original flight.
She further revealed that despite buying the replacement ticket, she was not allowed back into the boarding area because the new flight was scheduled for midnight.
“I had to pay $500 to buy another transit flight to Lagos. Now they’re telling me I cannot go inside because it’s too early to board. I have to stay out here for four hours.”
Korra added that she had already waited for about eight hours before missing the first flight and insisted she was seated directly in front of the boarding gate. She maintained that no announcement was made calling her name or informing passengers that boarding had started before the aircraft departed.
