Less
than 24 hours after the suspension of operations, popular Nigerian
airline, Arik Air has announce that it will resume its operation by
11:00am on Wednesday.
We reported on Tuesday
that hundreds of air travellers who booked on Nigerian Arik airline
were stranded across the country, following the inability of the airline
to airlift them to their destinations as news made rounds that company
has shutdown operations.
In a new statement on Wednesday signed by Ola Adebanji, the
company's public relations officer, less than 24 hours after suspension
of its operations, Arik Air has said it will resume its operation by
11:am today.
“Arik Air, West and Central Africa’s largest airline, is
pleased to announce that scheduled flights will resume from 11 am
tomorrow, Wednesday September 14, 2016.
“Members of the public and our esteemed customers are advised
to discountenance the disparaging allegations, unsubstantiated and
uninformed claims about the airline’s inability to meet its financial
obligations to aviation fuel marketers and a purported withdrawal of
insurance services to Arik Air by its insurers.
“While the current scarcity of aviation fuel (JET A1) has
impacted on the operations of airlines in the country, Arik Air is in
good standing with its fuel suppliers and has been meeting its
obligations to them and to our insurers.
“With the regularization of the required documents relating to
the renewal of the insurance, Arik Air will be resuming its normal
flying schedule from 1100 hours on Wednesday, September 14, 2016.
“Arik Air regrets the unfortunate inconvenience caused to its
customers and reassures our customers of expedient rebooking of any
affected flights,” the airline said.
Arik becomes the first airline to have returned from a suspension
of activities, as Aero Contractors and FirstNation are yet to make their
comeback.
