Flight Disruption: NCAA Tasks Air Peace To Improve Domestic Operations
By Stella Enenche, Abuja
The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has tasked Air Peace to immediately improve its domestic operations following complaints of flight delays and cancellations by the travelling public.
The Director General Civil Aviation (DGCA) Capt. Chris Najomo gave the charge on Friday while meeting with some management staff of Nigeria’s largest domestic operator in Abuja.
TheFactDaily recalled that the Airline had in January 2025 compensated 1901 passengers whose flight were either delayed, cancelled or downgraded I’m November 2024.
However Capt. Najomo advised the airline to trim its operations to the size of available aircraft presently in its fleet to mitigate the crisis.
The airline representatives at the meeting acknowledged that it has some challenges that are not unusual in the industry, but they are working round the clock to fix them.
The DGCA asserted that, while the NCAA will continue to support the airlines, the operators MUST comply with the regulations and global best practices.
Capt. Najomo warned that the NCAA is increasing its monitoring of flight operations across all airlines to ensure compliance.
