A Canada-based medical doctor has alleged di§crimination by airline staff after being denied hotel accommodation due to her Nigerian passport.
She said took a flight from Winnipeg to Newcastle. Her flight got to Newcastle but was turned back to Paris. They were promised a hotel on getting there. They got there and everyone was offered a hotel including those without visa except her because she carried a Nigerian passport.
She caught the customer service agent whispering to some passengers that were without visa whom she was escorting to their hotel to lower their voices when they were asking questions about going to their hotel so she wouldn’t hear the conversation.
On a whole flight, she was singled out because of her green passport. She is a doctor working in the UK and permanent resident of the Canada. She is not a refugee but she is being treated as one. Her hand luggage was checked in so she has no supplies and can’t clean herself for two days because their flight was rescheduled for Saturday and this is Thursday. This is unfair.
