Let me tell you what my bitter experience when i went to Dubai........

I completed my 30+ hours of stay in Dubai and time has arrived to go to India. I was arriving at the airport, Immigration guy saw me in the queue and called me to move towards him to check my documents. Before I reach his desk, he noticed I am an Indian and started saying the words........... "OHHHHH!! again Indian. Why you should fly emirates? You have your airlines. Go there."

And I didnot get irritated, and humbly said, "Sorry, but it is my company's wish to book my ticket on this airline to go home on vacation. I am coming from Nigeria".

He was still nodding his face with hatred showing in his expressions............!!

Today, Dubai World is in deep debt problems and they have to make money. At this time too why should they be so greedy and racist. Why can't he allow any passenger coming their way and make more money that helps them pay their debts back?????
