The Federal Government of Nigeria has announced that there is no set date for resumption of Emirates and Etihad flights.
The Minister of Aviation and Aerospace, Festus Keyamo, said that there is an ongoing discussion between Nigeria and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on terms of agreement.
Keyamo stated this while speaking during the Aviation Africa Summit in Abuja on Thursday.
While giving giving an update on the visa ban lift, said, “So, we are beginning to work out all the tiny details. I have met with the Emirate before I left and we are working out the details. We cannot say the time frame. Kicking off an airline operation again on a route does not mean you will go and grab one empty plane sitting in a place.”
