Air Peace Commends UK Support for Abuja-Heathrow Inaugural Flight

Air Peace, Nigeria's largest carrier, praised the UK Government's support ahead of its inaugural flight from Abuja to Heathrow on September 24. The airline's Chairman, Dr. Allen Onyema, highlighted the significance of securing access to London's major airports after seven years of effort.

Onyema commended the UK's backing, particularly British Deputy High Commissioner Jonny Baxter, for facilitating the necessary approvals. The collaboration signifies a milestone in Nigerian aviation and strengthens bilateral relations.

The UK's invitation for Air Peace to operate at Heathrow reflects a positive diplomatic and business relationship between the two countries.
