Air Peace Explains Flight Delays Due to Weather and Bird Strikes

Air Peace faced disruptions on its domestic flights between Lagos, Port Harcourt, Abuja, and Owerri due to adverse weather conditions and bird strike incidents. The airline's spokesperson, Osifo Whiskey, cited safety-related factors beyond their control, such as poor visibility and safety limits.

Passengers experienced delays and rescheduling, with flights undergoing mandatory inspections after bird strikes. Air Peace emphasized its commitment to safety and prompt incident response.

Despite passenger complaints and calls for zero flight delays, the airline adjusted its flight schedules to comply with aviation safety standards. The recurring flight delays prompted discussions on imposing stricter sanctions to ensure operational efficiency and passenger satisfaction.
