Air Peace has announced an increase in capacity for its Lagos-London route in response to rising demands.
This announced was made via a statement on the airline’s official Facebook account recently.
With the availability of more seats, travellers interested in flying to London with Air Peace now have additional options to choose from.
The statement read: “Due to overwhelming demand and interest in our London route, we have decided to increase the capacity on the route. This means that more seats are now available.
“Air Peace would like to thank the Nigerian population, both in Nigeria and in the United Kingdom, for their support. We do not take it for granted, and we will be doing our best to continue to make the whole country proud.”
The airline carried out its inaugural flight to London with 260 passengers aboard a Boeing 777, which has a capacity of 274 seats, recently. The route will be served daily from Lagos.
The development has changed market dynamics as foreign airlines that previously enjoyed exclusivity on the route have reviewed their pricing strategies.
The Chief Executive Officer of Air Peace, Allen Onyema, stated that tickets for Lagos-London flights with his company have been sold out until September.
During a recent interview with Arise TV, Onyema stated that Air Peace currently possesses over 30 aircraft and has placed orders for 33 others.
He stated that Air Peace aims to expand its fleet to over 60 aircraft.
