Air Peace to recommence Lagos-Johannesburg route with two flights per week
Air Peace said plans have reached an advanced stage for the recommencement of the Lagos-Johannesburg route on October 17, 2021. The airline in a statement by Mr. Stanley Olisa, its Spokesman said that the Lagos-Johannesburg service would operate twice a week.
The statement hinted that the flights would be operated on Thursdays and Sundays with its luxury wide-body Boeing 777 aircraft.
Olisa emphasised that the airline was delighted to return to the route, adding that the request from its teeming passengers prompted the return to the route it suspended in the wake of the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, which collapsed most of the world’s economies. He added that the flights would be operated in strict compliance with established COVID-19 protocols and implored the flying public to follow all the stipulated guidelines for international flights.
Olisa, who said that customers could now book Joburg flights on the airline’s website – flyairpeace.com or its mobile app, reiterated Air Peace’s commitment to providing best-in-class flight services, observing the highest standards of safety.
The airline suspended its Joburg operations following the international flight restrictions imposed by the South African Government some months back.
Air Peace commenced Johannesburg operations in December 2020, and currently services 19 domestic routes, six regional routes and two international destinations, while it boasts of a varied fleet of 30 aircraft, the latest being four brand new 124-seat capacity Embraer 195-E2 jets.
