what passengers go through ,flying with Arik air

Arik Air
This got me thinking, what if these passengers do not have extra cash on them? I hope there is compensation for such. I really don't think its fair on passengers to continue to have such experiences.

Arik air today cancelled its flight from Accra to Abuja apologizing to customers that its due to scarcity of aviation fuel.

What do you think should be done? Please drop your comment
