The airline regretted the inconveniences caused the affected passengers whose left over baggage are still in London by this unhealthy development. “We thought by Sunday we would have resolved the left over baggage issue if not for Gatwick Airport authorities,” Med-View Chief Operating Officer (COO/AM) Engineer Lookman Animashaun said. Animashaun said another flight will leave for London today, (Monday), to bring back home the left over baggage, and appealed to the affected passengers for their understanding. Recall a similar incidence happened recently when passengers who boarded Arik Air London- Lagos flight had their baggage left behind in London and threatened to ground the airline’s international operations until their baggage left behind in London are safely delivered to them. The passengers, who landed at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport Lagos on Saturday, December 3, 2016, said that Arik Air abandoned them and treated them as if they were not its passengers. They therefore invaded the airline’s counters at the international wing of the airport and threatened to prevent the airline from boarding any other passengers except their luggage were delivered to them.
