Nigeria's Air Peace has urged members of the public not to panic over the shortage of flights on domestic routes, assuring that it would soon deploy more aircraft to service destinations currently experiencing air travel difficulties.

A statement issued by Air Peace Corporate Communications Manager, Mr. Chris Iwarah said the carrier was concerned about reports of shortage of scheduled flights across the country and was ready to do everything within its capacity to ease the pain of air travellers.

The airline confirmed that the nation had been facing air travel difficulties since it reviewed its flight schedule downward on account of five of its aircraft being sent abroad for C-check.

According to the airline, a lot of flights would be scheduled from around December 17, 2018 to seamlessly take those travelling for Christmas and the New Year to their destinations.

The airline also said it had undertaken comprehensive maintenance of most of its aircraft to ensure its readiness for end-of-year operations.

We will do everything within our capacity to rise to the challenge of air travel currently facing our nation and deliver exceptional service that is sure to leave the flying public truly comfortable, proud, and satisfied,” Air Peace assured.
