Flights to resume at Kaduna Airport October 23

The Air Peace said it’s set to resume its Kaduna operations from October 23, 2023.

The airline’s spokesperson, Stanley Olisa, in a statement stated that Air Peace had perfected plans to return to Kaduna on the said date.

Olisa also observed that the Kaduna route had been inactive since March 2022 due to security concerns “but the airline is delighted to be resuming connectivity to the city after the 19 months hiatus.”

Newspot recalls that the Kaduna International Airport has been dormant for almost two years following attacks by bandits.

Flight operations had been impaired with Azman, the only airline operating to the state, suspending its services.

Although, two months later, Azman resumed operation with a one-way ticket from Abuja to Kaduna costing over N100,000 due to the insecurity in the state.

At the moment, the airport which used to play host to Air Peace, Aero Contractors, Arik Air, Med-View and Azman, remains dormant with no airline operating to the airport at the moment.

However, the airpeace spokesperson, Stanley Olisa, said Kaduna flight schedules are now live on the Air Peace website and tickets are selling already, adding that “we are happy to be resuming connectivity to the city and members of the flying public can visit our website or our mobile app to book”.
