Neos Airline, an Italian flag carrier, has announced that it is set to commence direct flight operations from Italy to Lagos on October 30.
Sky Master, the airline handlers in Nigeria, said the flights will be operated using a Boeing 787-800 before deploying a wider-body aircraft.
It added that the flight will commence operations once weekly for one month, while its frequency will increase to three times by the second month of its operations.
Sifax Sahco Travels will also operate as the airline’s official travel agent.
Princewill Ogbonna, managing director of Sky Master, stated that the debut of Neos Airline will further enhance the relationship between Nigeria and Italy.
He said Neos is a private Italian airline headquartered in Somma Lombardo, Lombardy, and operates in over 50 destinations worldwide.
Ogbonna also mentioned that the airline is ready to tailor its operations in Nigeria to accommodate better groups and associations based on their requests and needs.
He explained:
Ogbonna appreciated President Bola Tinubu’s aggressive push to ensure investments come into Nigeria without bottlenecks.
He said:
TimesNow.com.ng earlier reported that Festus Keyamo, the minister of aviation and aerospace development, has given the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority a 24-hour deadline to act on certain airlines’ unpaid air ticket balances, particularly those that have halted flights in recent months.
At the NCAA Consumer Protection Portal’s opening on Thursday at the Murtala Muhammed Airport in Lagos, Keyamo issued the directive, guaranteeing that travellers may file complaints in real-time.
Recall that the NCAA grounded Dana Air for financial and safety concerns while Azman Air halted operations due to incapacitation.
