Arik Air has resumed scheduled flights from 11 am today, Wednesday September 14, 2016.

A statement signed by PR and Communications manager of Arik Air, Adebanji Ola advised members of the public and their esteemed customers to discountenance the disparaging allegations, unsubstantiated and uninformed claims about the airline’s inability to meet its financial obligations to aviation fuel marketers and a purported withdrawal of insurance services to Arik Air by its insurers. 

Adebanji stated that while the current scarcity of aviation fuel (JET A1) has impacted on the operations of airlines in the country, Arik Air is in good standing with its fuel suppliers and has been meeting its obligations to them and to their insurers.

” With the regularisation of the required documents relating to the renewal of the insurance, Arik Air will be resuming its normal flying schedule from 1100 hours on Wednesday, September 14, 2016.  Arik Air regrets the unfortunate inconvenience caused to its customers and reassures our customers of expedient re-booking of any affected flights,” Adebanji concluded in the statement.
