Three years ago, a dream for a customer-oriented indigenous airline with international standard berthed on the shores of reality and Air Peace was born.
In its three years of existence, the history of Air Peace has been that of excellence as testified by its teeming customers. The narration around the airline has been a salutary determination to ensure air safety, airworthiness of aircrafts on its fleet, customer satisfaction and conformity with national and international regulations in its operations.
For an airline that commenced operation with two Dornier aircraft, the rapid growth of Air Peace in the aviation industry confounds its competitors and leaves critical stakeholders and customers cheering. In just three years, the airline now has in its fleet 11 aircraft and covers eight destinations in Nigeria. Apart from passenger services, Air Peace also provides charter services.
Air Peace commenced international flight this year, with Ghana-Nigeria flights. The airline has also been designated by the Federal Government for a direct flight from the Akanu Ibiam International Airport, Enugu to Johannesburg, London, Atlanta, Mumbai, Dubai and Mumbai and Guangzhou-China. This is evidently a massive boost to economy of the South-East.
In the light of the expansion of its operation, Air Peace will soon be acquiring more aircraft, including some B777s, to beef up its rapidly growing fleet. The airline will deploy its B777 aircraft to service its long-haul routes.
Air Peace has unassailable edge over other airlines in this regard as no Nigerian airline has ever used a B777 aircraft. More pilots are set for training in the operation of B777 aircraft.
