Skye Bank customers have expressed delight at the experience they have enjoyed for being customers of the bank’s priority accounts named Skye Select Account.

Okechukwu Okafor, a Lagos based business man who operates a Skye Select account expressed his appreciation to the bank, saying “I was travelling with some of my friends I didn’t know that being a holder of the priority pass card would give us a privileged advantage”.

Sharing his experience, he explained, “We were full of excitement because for starters, the card gave us access to the lovely lounge at Murtala Mohammad International airport where we were given priority treatment. I also had the opportunity to watch the live football match of my soccer team in comfort”.

Another customer who simply identified herself as Christine also explained, “At Amsterdam, we had an eight hour stopover before our next trip and the card gained us access to two of their executive lounges where we relaxed.”

According to her, “Imagine just waiting at the general waiting area/airport gate for eight hours with thousands of other travelers, the wait would have made our stop at Amsterdam uninteresting.”
