My Uganda Airlines Story

For the past few days, Ugandans have been all over social media, each person with their own opinion about our Uganda Airlines. Sometimes some of these comments have not been too kind, especially coming from a Ugandan but its a free world and all are entitled to their own opinions.

Mine is a road down memory lane. Back to the days when my Mother; did I mention very beautiful Mother was employed by Uganda Airlines. It was a time when we were entitled to ‘free’ tickets subject to availability and we traveled to Nairobi quite often. The memory that clearly comes to mind is when we heard her voice sometimes announcing a flight. It all felt like the airport belonged to us and we loved her job. The only downside to this were the night shifts that she had to work sometimes and maybe sometimes when we had to be returned home because the flight was full and we couldn’t travel; those were embarrassing moments especially because we had announced our travel to the whole neighbourhood. Life was good. And then Uganda Airlines was no more.

Today I share another story, Uganda Airlines is back into my life. Excited to see what it has in-store for Uganda.
