By Suleiman Anyalewechi

In the spirit of the Christmas and New year festivities, the Management of Aero Contractors has announced a flat rate of N80,000 on all local flights in the country.

Currently, its domestic flight tickets hover between  N99,000 and N190,000 for economy and business class  respectively.

In an interactive session on Tuesday December 3, 2024 with the Media, the Managing Director of the foremost Airline in Nigeria, Ado Sanusi, said the N80,000  flights ticket fees will be applicable on  all domestic routes.

According to him ,the gesture is one way the Company intends to appreciate and give back to Nigerians for their years of unalloyed patronage as well as in the spirit of  Christmas and New year festivities.

The gesture, Sanusi further informed, will be operational immediately and run through January next year, when it will come to an end .

The Airline, while appreciating the excruciating economic challenges being faced by Nigerians, expressed the hope that the gesture will go a long way in ameliorating the situation.

“We understand the pains Nigerians have been going through because of the economic hardship, the high prices of tickets, and with the holiday season nearby.

“So ,Aero Contractors has decided to announce a Christmas initiative.  We call them pocket -friendly Christmas prices.

“These prices are designed to allow Nigerians to travel to all our destinations without paying too much.

“And this is in the spirit of giving, which is the spirit of Christmas. We believe that as a company, this is just a very old history of understanding its customers.

“We believe it is time for us to give back to our customers .Our prices will start from N 80,000 to all of our destinations ,and we intend to make it affordable to flying public/families to meet their loved ones during the Christmas season”, Sanusi stated.

The Source reports that Aero Contractors’ decision on ticket price slashing is bound to unsettle competitors which about penultimate week put its one way tickets on local routes at about between N150,000 and N 200,000.

To the South-East, the return ticket is a scandalous N610,000.
