Our Flights Will Be Available on Monday – Ibom Air Says

Ibom Air says it is not taking part in the withdrawal of flight services as announced by Airline Operators of Nigeria (AON).

AON had hinged its resolve to shut down domestic flights over the increase in the price of aviation fuel.

The airline’s Chief Executive Officer, Mfon Udom, in a statement in Lagos, explained that the clarification was necessary to let members of the public know the airline’s stance on the matter.

The carrier cited its financial obligations to suppliers, financiers, and workers who depend on an uninterrupted flow of revenue to service as reasons for remaining in service.

It assured the public that the airline would continue normal operations on Monday and beyond, adding that the Ibom Air’s inclusion as “signatory” to the statement released by AON must have derived from its active and committed membership of the association.
