“Embark on your London adventure from Abuja, Asaba, Benin, Enugu, Owerri, Warri, or Port Harcourt! Seamless connections via Lagos. Make your journey smooth and convenient.”

How Nigerians are reacting

Following the announcement, Nigerians expressed enthusiasm, saying that if the service is seamless, Air Peace will have an advantage over other carriers on the route.

“You guys are doing great, but, please, please, can we work on your customer service helpline that's always not reachable nor unanswered? It's not nice that customers can't even get to make enquiries via phone call.”

@hackSultan said:

"This is great. Instead of flying to Abuja or Lagos first before going to London, all the locations on airpiece can route individuals directly to London via their Lagos terminal."

International airlines slash prices

Earlier, Legit.ng reported that foreign airlines have further reduced their fares to compete with Air Peace, which recently started operating flights on the Lagos-London route.

On March 30, Air Peace launched direct flights from Lagos to London, charging N1.2 million for a round-trip economy ticket on a route where other airlines were charging up to N3 million.

In response, foreign airlines recently slashed their prices to an average of N1.4 million for a round-trip economy ticket due to Nigerian Airlines' action.
