Enugu Air Expands Domestic Routes and Services in 2026
Enugu Air is a Nigerian airline owned by the Enugu State Government, headquartered in Enugu, and operating from Akanu Ibiam International Airport. It commenced commercial operations on 7 July 2025 and has rapidly developed into one of Nigeria's newest domestic carriers.
As of March 2026, the airline operates domestic services using Embraer regional jets, with a fleet of six aircraft. Enugu Air's goal is to connect the Southeast to the world and become a leading regional airline in Africa.
Initially, it focused on the "golden triangle" of Enugu, Abuja, and Lagos, with plans to expand to other Nigerian cities and eventually to international destinations. The current network includes Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, Owerri, Kano, Warri, Asaba, and Douala, Cameroon.
A new route from Abuja to Asaba started on 20 October 2026, with tickets available for booking.
