United Nigeria Airlines to Reward Passengers With Samsung Galaxy Phones on May 29 Flights
Passengers flying with United Nigeria Airlines on the Lagos–Abuja–Lagos route on May 29 are set to enjoy a special onboard experience as the airline rolls out a promotional campaign in collaboration with Samsung aimed at rewarding loyal customers with brand-new Galaxy smartphones.
The airline, in a press statement, announced the introduction of the “Awesome Row” initiative, a customer appreciation campaign that will give passengers travelling on selected flights the opportunity to interact with Samsung’s latest mobile devices and participate in a lucky dip draw for a chance to win smartphones.
According to the airline, travellers on the designated flights between Lagos and Abuja will gain access to the newly launched Samsung Galaxy A57 during the journey, while lucky winners will go home with new Samsung devices at the end of the exercise.
The promotion, the airline explained, forms part of ongoing efforts to improve passenger engagement and strengthen customer loyalty by offering experiences that go beyond regular air travel services.
Commenting on the initiative, the Chief Commercial Officer of United Nigeria Airlines, Dayo Olawuyi, said the partnership with Samsung reflects the airline’s dedication to excellence and innovation in customer service delivery.
He noted that both organisations share similar values centred on quality, customer satisfaction, and rewarding loyalty.
Olawuyi stated that passengers travelling on the morning Lagos–Abuja and Abuja–Lagos flights scheduled for May 29 would automatically qualify for the onboard raffle draw.
“We partnered with Samsung because of our shared values of excellence and, most importantly, to reward our loyal passengers with a live device experience,” he said.
He further explained that the airline remains focused on ensuring customers enjoy memorable experiences from check-in to arrival.
“We are very passionate about ensuring our customers have the best experience and that is exactly the kind of thing we want people to associate with flying United Air,” Olawuyi added.
The airline disclosed that devices available for the giveaway include the Samsung Galaxy A57 and the Galaxy A37 smartphones.
It also clarified that all passengers on the selected flights would be eligible to participate in the onboard lucky dip exercise organised as part of the campaign.
Industry stakeholders believe the initiative underscores the increasing drive by domestic airlines to differentiate themselves through innovative customer-focused programmes and strategic corporate partnerships.
The collaboration is also expected to strengthen Samsung’s brand visibility among Nigeria’s travelling public while giving passengers an opportunity to experience some of the company’s latest smartphone technology in-flight.
