Emirates airline retaliates, suspends flights to Nigeria
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on LinkedinShare on Whatsapp

Emirates UAE airline on Friday evening announced the suspension of its operations into Nigeria.

The decision of the airline is in response to the reduction of an earlier 21 frequencies approved by the Nigerian Government for the airline to just one flight per week.

The Middle East airline in a statement Friday evening said, “With the recently imposed directive limiting Emirates to operate one flight per week to Nigeria via Abuja, Emirates will be completely suspending its flights between Nigeria and Dubai until the civil aviation authorities find a solution to the current ongoing issue.

“We regret the inconvenience this caused, and customers can contact their travel agent or booking office to make alternative arrangements. Emirates is committed to its operations in Nigeria, and we stand ready to reinstate services once restrictions are lifted by the Nigerian authorities, ensuring travellers have more choice and access to trade and tourism opportunities in Dubai, and beyond to our network of over 120 destinations.”

The Nigerian  Government had rescinded its earlier decision to allow Emirates to operate 21 weekly frequencies to Nigeria as a reaction to the refusal of the UAE authorities to grant the request of Air Peace, the only Nigerian airline operating in UAE to operate three weekly flights to Sharjah.
