Arik Air Reconnects Asaba Today, October 17
Arik Air says it will be resuming flight operations from Lagos to Asaba, the capital of Delta State, effective today, Thursday, October 17, 2024.
Similarly, the airline has reintroduced flight connections from Abuja to Benin on October 4 and from Abuja to Port Harcourt on October 10, 2024. The Lagos-Asaba flights will operate from Murtala Muhammed Airport Domestic Terminal 1 (otherwise known as GAT), Ikeja, Lagos and operate four times weekly on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. Flights from Abuja to Port Harcourt will operate daily while Abuja to Benin will operate on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
The airline has also increased frequencies on the Lagos-Benin and Lagos-Warri routes to daily flights thus deepening its presence in the market. The reintroduction of the aforementioned flights is part of the airline’s strategy to reconnect the key routes that were hitherto suspended due to operational reasons.
Commenting on the development, Arik Air’s Chief Executive Officer, Capt. Roy Ilegbodu, said: “We are happy to extend our services once again to the good people of Asaba and environs who have been yearning for our services.
“We promise customers on all routes our commitment to uphold the high operational standards that Arik Air is known for”.
Arik Air is Nigeria’s leading airline operating flights to major destinations in the country. The airline will be 18 years on October 30, 2024.
