Fourteen days after Emirates , the Unified Middle Easterner Emirates (UAE) transporter, suspended flight activities to its courses in Nigeria, Air Harmony, the nation's only administrator to Dubai has followed after accordingly.
The carrier, in an explanation by its correspondences supervisor, Mr. Stanley Olisa, on Monday evening said the aircraft suspended non-stop trips to the UAE till additional notification because of the non-issuance of section visas to Nigerians.The airline said the suspension of its three weekly flights to the UAE would take effect from Tuesday, November 22, 2022.
The statement said, “This is consequent upon the persisting non-issuance of visas to Nigerian travelers by the government of the United Arab Emirates and the accompanying inconveniences.
“Air Peace has been operating in the UAE even with the country’s recent travel restrictions, but given the heightening hurdles Nigerian travelers are facing in accessing the country, it has become imperative that we halt our operations to that destination.”
Olisa said its management would provide further updates as the situation progresses. The airline said passengers whose flights are affected by this development could email its Call Center Team- to attend to their concerns. For the record: This is not the first time Air Peace has operated in Dubai and suspended flight services to the route. Air Peace began services to the Middle Eastern nation in July 2019, but at that time flying to Sharjah rather than Dubai.
