Fintech boss laments handwritten flight ticket

The paper document showed details such as the passenger's name, flight number 506, date, seat assignment, and passenger name record (PNR) number scribbled manually with a pen. He noted that several other passengers on the same early morning flight from Lagos received identical handwritten passes.

While posting the video clip to express his dissatisfaction, Morris Monye said:

"What’s going on with our aviation.

I was on an early morning flight with United Nigeria and I (alongside many other passengers) got issued a handwritten ticket.
