From Sola Ojo, Abuja
The Director General, Civil Aviation, Capt. Chris Najomo has told Air Peace to immediately improve its domestic operations owing to complaints of chronic flight delays and cancellations by the travelling public.
Capt. Najomo strongly advised the airline to trim its operations to the size of available aircraft presently in its fleet to mitigate the crisis.
The DGCA gave the charge on Friday in a heated meeting with some management staff of Nigeria’s largest domestic operator in Abuja.
The airline representatives at the meeting acknowledged that it has some challenges that were not unusual in the industry, but they were working round the clock to fix them.
Najomo asserted that, while the NCAA would continue to support the airlines, the operators must comply with the regulations and global best practices.
Capt. Najomo warned that the NCAA was increasing its monitoring of flight operations across all airlines to ensure compliance.
