Ibom Air delivers its 50,000th passenger

Ibom Air

On Tuesday 10th September 2019, exactly three months and a day since it began commercial flight operations, Ibom Air carried our 50,000th passenger. It was a pleasant surprise it was when at the ‘count up’ during the boarding of flight Z4100 from Uyo to Lagos, passenger number 50,000 turned out to be first time Ibom Air traveller, Ruth Nsaka.

Nsaka was ‘ambushed’ by an excited team of Ibom Air Executives led by George Uriesi, Chief Operating Officer of the airline. She was handed a ’50,000th Passenger Certificate’, which entitles her to a free return ticket on any of Ibom Air’s routes. She was also upgraded to our Premium Economy cabin for her flight and treated with lots of Ibom Air goodies.

Completely blown away by the surprise, Nsaka said “I can’t believe this. This is my first flight on Ibom Air. I have heard so much about the airline and its services and looked forward to this first experience. And now this!”

George Uriesi, Ibom Air Chief Operating Officer, said “this is one of the ways in which Ibom Air will be giving back to our customers and the communities in which we operate. We are excited to carry our 50,000th passenger within three months of operations and heartily congratulate Nsaka for being ‘the one’! We are thankful for the support of our passengers and thoroughly excited about the future.”
