A statement by its Marketing and Communications Manager, Kudirat Scott-Igbene, said the airline had been flying in Nigeria in the last 14 years.
“This announcement has no impact on our flying programme and we plan to continue flights between Lagos and London. After 14 years flying the route, we remain committed to servicing Nigerians, whether it be for business, family or leisure.”
