Air Nigeria will shortly commence flights to Brazzaville, in line with the airlines network expansion strategy. Brazzaville, the Republic of Congo’s capital city will be connected on the Air Nigeria’s regional route network from 8th of August thereby bringing the airline’s present regional operational coverage in the West coast and Central African region to 9 countries.
Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Kinfe Kahssaye explained that the proposed launch of the Brazzaville route is in line with the new vision of the airline to systematically build strong economic ties amongst African nations through expanding trade frontiers.
He noted that the airline would commence daily flights from the international wing of the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, Lagos to Maya-Maya Airport in Brazzaville with an introductory fare of $500 which will come into effect at inauguration of the flight operations.
“Our regional operation is hinged on fostering and promoting existing economic and socio-cultural ties in Africa, especially by providing world class airline travel experience for passengers”, said Mr. Kahssaye, while adding that the airline will offer passengers’ value-for-money as it will continually deliver superior customer service at par with globally acceptable standards.
