Nigeria’s leading airline, Air Peace, is expanding its regional connectivity with the launch of Lome (Togo) route on July 28, 2023.
A statement by the airline said it was also starting special flights to Antigua between August 5 and 9, 2023, in partnership with Tour Brokers International.
It said the Lagos-Lome-Lagos route will be operated with the 50-seater Embraer 145 jets.
“We are expanding our West African presence to strategically connect key cities in the sub-region, ease connectivity for Africans and strengthen commercial ties between countries,” the statement read in part.
“Air Peace is committed to easing the air transportation burden of Africans, and this will continue to drive our route expansion as well as fleet modernisation. We also recently received two Boeing 737-700 aircraft to further strengthen our domestic and regional operations.”
On the Antigua operations, Air Peace disclosed that it is offering the best flight deals for customers who plan to travel for the Antigua Carnival from August 5-9, 2023, plus bespoke hotel packages from Tour Brokers International, while adding that customers can contact [email protected] for more enquiries.
The airline further hinted that plans were in top gear to resume flight to China soon, adding that more connections and routes like Congo Kinshasa and Abidjan are in the works.
With Lome operations, Air Peace’s regional route strength will increase to eight, including Douala and Niamey launched in 2021 and 2022 respectively.
