Air Peace prepares for Dubai, Houston, others, begins demonstration flight to Dakar
Nigeria’s flag carrier airline, Air Peace’s determination to begin long haul flight operations has begun with a demonstration flight to Dakar, Senegal.
The carrier was granted rights to operate Dubai, Sharjah, London, Houston, Guangzhou-China, Mumbai and Johannesburg.
A short WhatsApp message by spokesman for the carrier, Chris Iwarah said the demonstration flight to Dakar took off at 8am with Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) inspectors onboard.
He explained that the non-revenue flight was to demonstrate, “our capabilities with the Boeing 777 next visit Kano, Port Harcourt, Freetown, Johannesburg & Sharjah”.
He also posted videos of events inside the aircraft during flight service to Dakar, adding this goes into ensuring the safety of the airline’s valued customers and crew.
“It is costly but necessary! But, first, our CP’s tour of our B777 – it’s quite an exciting beauty to behold”, he added.
