Imagine !!! buying business class ticket 3 times. Only 1 was successful. @klm I hope you guys refund me the two i didn’t use. I know it is not ur fault but it’s fine. Each business class cost me 9,800,000. I only successfully flew yesterday 3/11/2024. Before you come to my page to type nonsense check ur account balance if you can afford 3 business seat, not to talk of buying it 3 times. Well I’m not in Nigeria so ur comment means nothing. Cheers.”
