Air Peace Commences Lagos-London Flight Operations [Photos]

Nigeria’s national carrier, Air Peace commenced its Lagos-London flight services on Saturday.

This follows the airline’s announcement a month earlier, during a prelaunch forum held in February, detailing its plans to commence direct flight operations to London on March 30.

In November, Allen Onyema, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Air Peace, revealed that the airline had successfully secured the necessary permits, including the Foreign Carrier Operator Permit and Third Country Operator Permit.

Air Peace celebrated this achievement on its official channels on Saturday, expressing gratitude for reaching this significant milestone.

The airline wrote, “London service has commenced and we’re delighted to have achieved yet another feat in our drive to continually provide peaceful connectivity across cities. A big thank you to everyone who contributed to the success of this launch.”

The inaugural flight to London was attended by Festus Keyamo, the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, and Doris Uzoka-Anita, the Minister of Industry, Trade, and Investment, among other dignitaries.
